Covalent radius

The table that you added looks really pretty, but where do the numbers come from? (I know they come from the German Wikipedia, but where do they come from ultimately?) The don't match the numbers from the table that was already in the article, which come from what I think is the most recent and comprehensive survey of covalent radii. --Itub (talk) 14:00, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I noticed that too - but sadly after I had already added the table. I'm not quite sure what to do with it now, it would probably be best to delete the table again and get it up once it's updated with the data from the Cambridge Structural Database. And that's what I'll do now ... --Sap123 (talk) 18:45, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
