Aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons

With respect, I would like to suggest that the distinction between aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons be mentioned and wikilinked in a suitable place this article. The words are used in a table in the article, but are not otherwise used or mentioned in it. Not being a chemist myself, I prefer to ask a local editor to do this, rather than try to do it myself and probably suboptimally. I guess there is a reason, to do with rigorously systematic chemistry, why this distinction is not already made in the article, but I feel it might be a good idea to make a concession for the benefit of readers whose thinking is not so rigorous, even if only to explain why the distinction does not fit rigorous system.Chjoaygame (talk) 01:44, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
