Hello, I have been looking at Biological roles of the elements. It does appear to duplicate in part: Roles of chemical elements and Mineral (nutrient). But I do not think this is worth merging. I think that some of your "Has no known biological role" is an understatement. Almost certainly some have "no biological role" eg actinium. But Aluminium has more of a chance! Another comment "Essential to eukaryotes, found in many enzymes, many of them in bacteria" -- bacteria are not eukaryotes as this suggests. (Probably should be split by a full stop.)

Please do not bold entire paragraphs. The Manual of Style limits the use of bold text to very specific circumstances. SounderBruce 19:48, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK, so I should disregard the Wikipedia guidance to bold new text so as to attract reviewer attention? OlyScientist (talk) 21:00, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
