Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Pigment. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{

The introduction states that the distinction between pigments and dyes is that pigments are inorganic, and non-water soluble, while dyes are organic and water soluble.
Given the fact that this statement pertains to the very definition and distinction of pigments and dyes, I think a citation should be provided or required. It is a statement with far reaching implications. Applying to every dye and pigment. I think taking any definition at its word without a citation should be avoided. Within reason, of course.
For topics with two different terms which seem to refer to the same thing, but are very different on a technical level, this is especially important as there can be a lot of confusion and conjecture surrounding the differences. VoidHalo ( talk) 14:28, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
Dyes are colored substances which are soluble or go into solution during the application process and impart color by selective absorption of light. Pigments are colored, colorless, or fluorescent particulate organic or inorganic finely divided solids which are usually insoluble in, and essentially chemically unaffected by, the vehicle or medium in which they are incorporated.– jacobolus (t) 17:46, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
If anyone is interested in expanding the history section, this seems to be a nice summary:

Almost nothing about printer inks on here. Also, the article says that you can't put pigments in water. Then how does one explain water-based pigment inks, such as "iX"? 79.106.203.88 ( talk) 17:51, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
