Meting point should be melting point, but I can't see if the error is in the quote or at our end. Would someone mind checking that and fixing or marking as {{sic}} Ϣere SpielChequers 20:06, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Typo this end, sorted.TheLongTone (talk) 14:06, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

...actually, not sorted because although the DNB says melted it does not serve as a source for the quote in the table.TheLongTone (talk) 14:16, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, that's curious, always intriguing when one anomaly leads to another. Ϣere SpielChequers 15:42, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The typo is present on the Royal Society’s Hughes Medal page; I rather doubt they copied it from here.173.181.80.100 (talk) 22:24, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They have now fixed it.—Odysseus 1479 05:18, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Another typo on the Royal Society's page is "interfrometer" in Hanbury Brown's entry (1971). Hopefully that will get fixed in due course too. Vaughan Pratt (talk) 06:14, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
