The use of a lowercase d in dalton is incorrect, as the unit is named after a person (John Dalton). The page should be removed as to not cause confusion

Many units named after people are now lower-case, cf. watt, newton, amp, joule, etc. The use of "dalton" is correct. Robert Ullmann 13:18, 15 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
