Reliable source[edit]

Article uses Composition and Physical Properties of Alloys, (Oliver Seely) as a source for melting point but the self published webpage seems to list many possible compositions with no sources so how can we regard it as reliable ? - Rod57 (talk) 23:00, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dubious unsourced claim[edit]

I have removed this unsourced claim that may be original research or wild speculation: "Some authorities and collectors think this "white metal" sometimes formed a base for early experimentations in mercury and tin or latten metal plating in the 18th and early 19th centuries." Please restore if a proper source is found. --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 05:08, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
