Well, C. W. Scheele is spelled C. W. Scheel in the tungsten entry - that is wrong.

Fix bug 133297: Misspelling of Scheele

BUGS: 133297

Hi Magnus!  Is all well in Linköping?

Another thing: In the data the first name is given as K. W. in all
instances, but Magnus says it is C. W.  Which is the correct form?

Comment 2 Carsten Niehaus 2006-08-31 09:13:38 UTC
The german wikipedia says both Karl and Carl are correct. The english doesn't :-) But in Germany the form "Karl" is much more common.

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Wilhelm_Scheele

I just fixed this in BlueObelisk as well, so with the next sync Kalzium of KDE4 will also have the fix.

Comment 4 Inge Wallin 2006-08-31 09:22:24 UTC
I think this guy was a Swede, so logically the Swedish name conventions (i.e. Scheele's own) should be followed.
Comment 5 Magnus Fromreide 2006-09-02 09:06:17 UTC
Hi Inge - Linköping is well
Regarding C.W. or K.W - I did check out how he spelled his name on
his "Chemische Abhandlung von der Luft und dem Feur" and there it says
Carl with a C, so i think C is more correct.
See http://runeberg.org/scheelch/0000.html for a scan of a facsimile
edition of the original work.
Comment 6 Carsten Niehaus 2006-09-02 12:52:02 UTC
Hey Magnus, thanks for the work. This is now fixed in BlueObelisk, so it will be in KDE4. I think it will be fine if we let it be K.W. Scheele in 3.5 because that would introduce 4 new strings for the translators (new as in "needs to be retranslated"). 

Agreed?
Comment 7 Inge Wallin 2006-09-02 13:38:00 UTC
SVN commit 580013 by ingwa:

K. W. Scheele -> C. W. Scheele, as this is the correct spelling.

The same change is also done for KDE4, but not in our SVN, since the
data is taken from outside.
