User talk:Balonlon

I feel a little bit robbed of an opportunity to learn here. I reached out to you because I wanted to do this right and not end up causing a mess. I was actively spending time reading other sources to try and improve this article and you very much took the air out my sail when I logged on today to find out you just went ahead and copied everything over. I will still try to improve the new articles, but I just want to let you know its not very welcoming what you did there as someone who is clearly a veteran user. @Smokefoot

Sorry to "rob" you. There is lots more to do. I was going to merge two similar articles on Alpine borane, also related to carbonyl reduction. You are welcome to do the blending. --Smokefoot (talk) 13:57, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Listen, I love the bullshittery series too, but not a single one of these sources is reliable. Please read WP:RS, edit accordingly, and resubmit.

Well since there are no other sources, I guess I will park the draft for now in hopes of better sources later on. Balonlon (talk) 12:44, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
