- 08:4108:41, 11 December 2017 diff hist −273 m Oxidation state For 2 months the entry has been edited for punctuation, unified headings, flow, clarity, unified reference style/placement and color-coding info. For example, the simplest algorithm comes now first. To prevent confusion, the banner was now deleted.

- 15:4515:45, 9 November 2017 diff hist +240 Oxidation state The person placing the tag «confusing» “had to go to the Simple English wiki” to find a description suitable for kids. I added to the first paragraph a link to Simple Wiki as well as to a “teaching” section here and deleted the tag. Thanks!

- 11:5411:54, 8 November 2017 diff hist 0 Talk:Oxidation state →"confusing" tag
- 11:5111:51, 8 November 2017 diff hist +959 Talk:Oxidation state →"confusing" tag: thanks and an answer.
- 10:2310:23, 8 November 2017 diff hist +14 m Oxidation state →A physical measurement is needed to decide the oxidation state: The first item is made a full sentence, like for the items that follow.
- 10:0210:02, 8 November 2017 diff hist −46 m Oxidation state →Balancing redox: Oxidation state is basically about balancing electrons on atoms in compounds. It is not helpful to introduce "electron-charge units". The last sentence in the Tollens-reagent example was simplified accordingly.

- 09:4309:43, 31 October 2017 diff hist 0 m Oxidation state →Development towards the current concept: One more case of rewording so that reference number can be moved right after the item it refers to, and not be "misplaced" after the fullstop.
- 09:1409:14, 31 October 2017 diff hist −2 m Oxidation state →Development towards the current concept: Reference numbers to particular items inside a sentence should be placed after each such item, not after a comma or the fullstop. Fixed or reworded so that it is not considered a style problem.

22 October 2017
- 12:3412:34, 22 October 2017 diff hist +15 m Oxidation state →Balancing Redox: Condition spelled out in the last sentence (if they are not equal).
- 12:3112:31, 22 October 2017 diff hist +1 m Oxidation state →Balancing Redox: Comma added (last sentence), short hyphen added in "3-electron step".
- 07:3007:30, 22 October 2017 diff hist +4 m Oxidation state →Nominal oxidation states: Dear DMacks, thank you for the edits, but here, specifically for Latimer diagrams, the pH=0 defines THE independent mathematical variable on which the values in the diagram depend. A math variable must be in italics.
- 07:2307:23, 22 October 2017 diff hist +17 m Oxidation state →Balancing Redox: a missing word added
- 07:1807:18, 22 October 2017 diff hist +10 Oxidation state →Balancing Redox: Rewording the last 3 sentences for clarity.

- 08:2408:24, 21 October 2017 diff hist +292 m Oxidation state →Balancing Redox: Link to entry "Redox" was added. Alternative redox-equation balancing method of redox balancing with half-reactions is mentioned and linked.
20 October 2017
- 09:0309:03, 20 October 2017 diff hist +267 Oxidation state →Balancing Redox: Start with 2 redox couples and end with balancing charges is added for completion of the equation balancing process.
