Hey there. Thanks a lot for providing some links to get help. I want to stay in Wikipedia to edit some minor things, grammar mistakes, missing pieces of information, misinformation and stuff related to chemistry.
And I saw your user page, glad to see somebody who also likes radiochemistry!
I'll consider staying here for a while. SupercriticalXenon (talk) 04:17, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a message letting you know that one or more of your recent edits to Berkelium have been undone by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 11:30, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I sent a report of false positive. My edit in Berkelium was just to add a word to further correct the info. Berkelium is only THEORETICALLY detected in Przybylski's Star, look at the article:
"Przybylski's Star possibly also contains many different short-lived actinide elements with actinium, protactinium, neptunium, plutonium, americium, curium, berkelium, californium, and einsteinium being theoretically detected."
Original: "Berkelium is also one of the elements that have been detected in Przybylski's Star."
Fixed: "Berkelium is also one of the elements that have been theoretically detected in Przybylski's Star."
I was not causing any vandalism here. Thank you for noticing. SupercriticalXenon (talk) 11:47, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You're correct that this is not vandalism (nothing to worry about there, indeed a false positive), and I understand your reasoning. However, the paper [1] reports the detection of Bk spectral lines, so the sentence is correct without the added theoretically. In general, either something is or is not reported/observed – there's no in-between – you may wish to nonetheless keep this in mind for future edits.

Interesting. I don't really know which online article(s) did the author of the Przybylski's Star page depend on to write about it. At first I thought it was appropriate to add the word "theoretically" in because the Einsteinium article said the same, but with more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einsteinium#Natural_occurrence SupercriticalXenon (talk) 12:35, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
