There is also a\n<a href=\"http://chempedia.net/articles/new\">page to make links</a> to new Wikipedia monographs. Not sure why Rich chose CAS instead of the InChI,\ngiven the recent <a href=\"https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/2008/03/09/chemical-object-identifier-or-freedom.html\">controversy on validity of CAS numbers in Wikipedia <i class=\"fa-solid fa-recycle fa-xs\"></i></a>…\nrealize that this page is for new monograph, of which the CAS number is likely not verified yet, or? On the other hand, the InChI or InChIKey is\n<a href=\"https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/2007/11/16/molecules-in-wikipedia-without-inchis-3.html\">not so abundant in Wikipedia yet <i class=\"fa-solid fa-recycle fa-xs\"></i></a> (I really must make an updated list).</p>\n\n<p><a href=\"http://www.chemspider.com/\">ChemSpider</a> has been using a similar approach to add value to existing resources. The interesting thing in\nthis case, is that these substructure searchable versions, have an interesting spin off: it allows ChemSpider to build a valuable\nDOI-InChI table.
