White lead powder was also used in the Elizabethan period as a face paint. It would also be mixed with ceruse and the lips painted. Strange this article makes no mention of this? Danny (talk) 00:53, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
I don't know how to do a citation and the video citation page is intractable as most of wikipedia manuals, but here is a video of a retired professor talking about it: youtu.be/08tc_fRY5ps?t=1m33s if someone with knowledge wants to fill the [citation needed] (woahou even youtube links are restricted, well I don't know, I'm trying to help but it's not gonna happen again soon) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.32.126.170 (talk) 21:30, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
Cit. done, found ref. here, https://archive.org/stream/in.ernet.dli.2015.84129/2015.84129.Lubricating-Greases-Their-Manufacture-And-Use#page/n681/mode/2up/search/%22lead+soap%22 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dsmatthews (talk • contribs) 09:12, 16 November 2017 (UTC)
On the page hydroxide the formula (PbCO3)2·Pb(OH)2 is used, which somehow looks more sane to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SimonDeDanser (talk • contribs) 04:13, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
Hydrocerussite does not contain WATER, but hydroXYL groups; it is thus not a HYDRATE, but BASIC (hydrOUS) carbonate; the more, a mineral can't be a hydrate of another mineral, e.g., CuSO4*5H2O is a pentahydrate of COPPER SULPHATE and not CHALCOCYANITE. Eudialytos (talk) 20:03, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of White lead's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Ullmann":
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT⚡ 17:57, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
