- Comment: Source: [1] von Groth founded the journal 1877 and was the editor until the end of 1920, hence 44 years (inclusive). On the number of crystalline substances von Groth catalogued, sources says 9,000 to 10,000 so I went with "over 9,000." I went with the name of the journal when it was founded; it has had several names. I guess it could be shortened to Zeitschrift für Kristallographie which was used for a long time, if needed for the hook length. The ALTs all cover the same facts, offering multiple choices for stylistic choice by the reviewer / promoter.

Good job! Articles about individual scientific journals can be kind of dry, but I'm glad you found an interesting fact about it here. New and long enough, within policy, QPQ satisfactory, Earwig detects no copyvios. Hook facts check out; I struck out a few hooks that are less to-the-point.

- Thanks, Antony-22, the lack of anything hook-worthy was one reason I didn't try to expand the related article on Zeitschrift für Kristallographie – New Crystal Structures for DYK. :) EdChem (talk) 08:24, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
