== PM2.5 ==
[[Boys]] and [[girls]] - this is not a [[refereed journal]], it's an [[encyclopedia]]. When I look up PM2.5, I expect to find out what the [[hell]] that means, not get into a discussion about what constitutes a "[[particle]]". PM is Particulate Matter? 2.5 is ... ? [[Inches]]? [[km]]? Is it even a size? Maybe it's how the particle [[tastes]] - 2.5 is [[raspberry]] and 10 is [[chocolate]]? --[[User:Plaws|plaws]] ([[User talk:Plaws|talk]]) 18:25, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

== Interpunct inconsistency ==
 
<blockquote>
European countries revealed that there was no safe level of particulates and that for every increase of 10 μg/m3 in PM10, the lung cancer rate rose 22% ['''95% CI''' 1·03–1·45]. The smaller PM2.5 were particularly deadly, with an 18% increase in lung cancer per 5 μg/m3 (['''CI 95%''' 0·96–1·46]) as it can penetrate deeper into the lungs.

I'm going to edit this into consistency, and change the [[interpunct]] into regular dots, because it seems to me this can only interfere with [[assistive technology]]s such as text to speech.
 
I found a mention of interpunct in MOS:COMMONMATH, but it didn't resolve this case, so I'll go with my spidey sense, instead. Revert at will if you think I've got it wrong. &mdash; [[user:MaxEnt|MaxEnt]] 02:34, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
 
== Please check interlinkages with [[aerosol]] ==
 
I see that several people have improved this article in recent times. Could you please take a look also at the related article [[aerosol]] (a parent article?). I think the content about atmospheric aspects, climate change and so forth overlaps a bit in both articles. It's probably better covered here and might need culling/reworking at [[aerosol]]?
