- Granted that topics like alchemy may have many interpretations as it has a basis in belief, but the page also had many authors. Such is the way of the wiki. Should you wish to summarise an alternative version of what medieval or renaissance alchemy broadly was, then you are welcome to add your own content to the page. Just be prepared for others to edit it. I do not know myself how accurate the page presently is, but it certainly matches my layman knowledge of the Romantic view of a period alchemist. - Cian Gillebhrath 19:55, 2 Mar 2006 (CST)
