– Specification of oxidation state is customary, even if there is no equivalent tetravalent compound, because the +2 and +4 oxidation states are roughly equally common for tin. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 02:19, 23 June 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. CollectiveSolidarity (talk) 05:34, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'd say that readers are more likely to find them and search for them by their current names. Check the references in our articles and you will find them either as tin selenide/telluride or SnSe/SnTe, but rarely as tin(II). Kanatzidis group's very famous Nature paper has tin selenide only as SnSe, and their recent paper calls it tin selenide. Many more similar examples. The fact that there is no tin(II) telluride redirect page (as of 2022-06-29) is also quite telling! Please KEEP current names. Ponor (talk) 06:31, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
