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. The "10" in the citation is the "series" and "9" is the volume. 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. 38.110.0.36 (talk) 01:46, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
