rm redundant and overly detailed edit

Dec 22, 2022, 14:40 - «rm redundant and overly detailed. it is made from Pb + 1/2O»

@Smokefoot: Well I dont' think it's redundant or overly detailed. In fact, these are not detailed at all and actually detailed description of the processes can only be found in sources. Currently the synthesis it's overly simplified. I propose to rever this edit back. Best.

It is made by Pb + O2 is various waysor by heating various precursors. Wikipedia is not a WP:TEXTBOOK (we dont explain things very much) and Wikipedia is not giving instructions (WP:NOTMANUAL), and I thought that the very simple chemical process (basically combustion of Pb) was presented in an overly complicated way. You are welcome to revert or revise. I think that you have helped to organize an useful article and readers should be grateful. --Smokefoot (talk) 21:40, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I've partially restored my edit on [Dec 22, 2022, 21:54]. I agree that the chemical reaction is rather simple but let's mention the fact that there are two industrial methods exists for pure lead. Before my edit they only methods listed were those which utilize mineral ores, which are kinda different. It's handy to have references for synthesis from pure lead. I've removed unnecessary details as you pointed out by WP:NOTMANUAL. AXONOV (talk) 21:57, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
