The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.
- Please expand the lead to conform with guidelines at Wikipedia:Lead. The article should have an appropriate number of paragraphs as is shown on WP:LEAD, and should adequately summarize the article.[?]

To upload images on Wikipedia, go to Special:Upload; to upload non-fair use images on the Wikimedia Commons, go to commons:special:upload.[?]
- See if possible if there is a free use image that can go on the top right corner of this article.[?]
- There may be an applicable infobox for this article. For example, see Template:Infobox Biography, Template:Infobox School, or Template:Infobox City.[?] (Note that there might not be an applicable infobox; remember that these suggestions are not generated manually)
- This article is a bit too short, and therefore may not be as comprehensive as WP:WIAFA critera 1(b) is looking for. Please see if anything can be expanded upon.[?]
- As done in WP:FOOTNOTE, footnotes usually are located right after a punctuation mark (as recommended by the CMS, but not mandatory), such that there is no space in between. For example, the sun is larger than the moon [2]. is usually written as the sun is larger than the moon.[2][?]

Great article. Hope I didn't mangle anything by resectioning it.
A few comments:
- Perhaps the name can be adjusted. Something like Organomercury compound? But Organo-alkaline earth sounds weird.
- Lead needs to be expanded, but this is not my field and i can't help
- What is the typical bonding and geometry? I'm not familiar outside of transition metals; does electron counting and the 18 e rule apply?
- Similarities with Group 12 can be expanded
- Perhaps more examples need to be highlighted, and significant contemporary work mentioned with references for further reading?

- There is always room for expansion, my short term objective is the pretty weird berrylocene V8rik 20:34, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
