A fact from Phases of ice appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 18 May 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that ice in outer space is an amorphous solid, and this may be the most common phase of ice in the universe?
The article seems to contradict itself on whether the ice XI phase is hexagonal or orthorhombic. The phase diagram in the lead doesn't help, as there are two different phases labeled as ice XI. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 19:01, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ice XI is thought to be a more stable conformation
The section on Earth has a paragraph about conflicting reports that appears to be WP:OR. That is the comparison and thus judgement of various primary references is done by a Wikipedia editor. I think the paragraph should be replaced by content from a review, eg
…Kurt Vonnegut’s fictional version of Ice IX, an arrangement of water molecules packed so efficiently stable that any other water molecules it ever comes in contact with — like those in every living being on earth, instantly organize themselves into Ice IX also, leading to a chain reaction that freezes the entire world over. There could even be its own section about why the thermodynamics of this would be impossible. I think it was Cat’s Cradle where this made its appearance, but I could be wrong. 76.174.113.253 (talk) 08:44, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
