Job's original paper

The citation for Job's paper was edited years ago to provide a full journal name in place of Ann. Chim. Unfortunately, the journal given was incorrect. Job published in Annales de Chimie (a French journal, not an Italian one of a similar name). The Chemical Abstracts Service has the correct citation. Interestingly, there are papers in the current literature that cite the Italian journal (for which volume 9 came out in 1918, not 1928). This shows the extent to which scholars use Wikipedia, but also the extent to which some take shortcuts in literature searches. I am correcting the citation now.
