Atomically Precise Manufacturing

Glad to see your contribution to Wikipedia. I sometimes help out with new pages. You might see if you could include more references that support the name you gave to the article. I stuck one I found in there quickly, I think the name is valid, but you probably can find and add better examples. Most of the links present already refer to the topic in general but don't address this concept very specifically. I saw one refer to 'atomically-precise pieces' but most of them didn't, although the term came up right away on a Google Search, including a reference from Forbes and a academic presentation, which is the one I added. Particularly anything that could be used as a reference and to flesh out the article more would be good to include. Keep up the good work contributing. Phil (talk) 14:03, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

July 2024

Hello, I'm Porterjoh. I wanted to let you know that one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Sodium-ion battery—has been undone because it appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thank you.

You were incorrect. I am a disinterested and independent researcher working for the Dept. of Energy. Your page was missing two important US producers which I added and which you deleted. A simple redaction of the offending phrase would have been more appropriate. As I am tired of having my content deleted, I'm ceasing my donations to Wikipedia.
