External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Glassine. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20080822021744/http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/states/newsrel/2008/nwk080408.html to http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/states/newsrel/2008/nwk080408.html

Removed "unreliable sources" template

I have removed this template for several reasons. At the time of its removal:

There were NO sources flagged as being even potentially unreliable.
If the problem did exist in the past, it has been resolved and the template was not subsequently removed.
There was no mention of any issues on the talk page that mention this template, let alone warrant its continued presence.

If anyone adds it again in the future, please flag which references inspired you to add it. If you do not, your effort is wasted.

Thanks! 1980fast (talk) 22:21, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Photos and negatives

This omits or just skirts a discussion of the extensive use of glassine envelopes and sleeves to hold photographs and photographic negatives during the century prior to digital photography. 107.77.206.55 (talk) 13:11, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Carbon footprint

This subject isn't mentioned, yet glassine being eco-friendly is a somewhat widespread claim. Holdonspirit (talk) 17:50, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Coatings?

Does anyone know if the typical envelope applications are water/oil resistant solely as a result of the supercalendering, or do they have a coating applied, as mentioned for release liners? The current sources all just talk about applications, not manufacture Walkersam (talk) 20:23, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
