While going through this article, I was curious to read the historical developments. The article on wikipedia on Robert Hooke (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hooke) mentions , "He is also remembered for his work as "the father of microscopy" — it was Hooke who coined the term "cell" to describe the basic unit of life". I am surprised to see this name completely ommited in this article. This creates confusion. What was Robert Hooke's role in microscopy? --59.92.248.137 (talk) 15:20, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

"Diagram of a compound microscope" is problematic

The reverse extension of leftmost light ray emitting from "image 1" doesn't intersect anything, neither a piece of lens nor any light source, then where does the light ray come from? 2001:250:4000:8180:3011:8F1:411:FED1 (talk) 17:36, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
