You really have to laugh at the sloppiness of Wiki so-called 'editors'
The intro says it was discovered simultaneously by 2 people. Then in the history section, it says that only one of them discovered it.

NFPA704 Hazard Codes
The NFPA704 hazard codes (4:health/0:flamability/0:reactivity/white:special) are almost certainly incorrect. I was able to find the codes for cadmium powder (3/4/3/white) via cursory google search, but nothing official for solid metal. I have also found significantly conflicting categorizations for it [https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/MSDS/MSDS/DisplayMSDSPage.do?country=US&language=en&productNumber=265454&brand=ALDRICH&PageToGoToURL=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sigmaaldrich.com%2Fcatalog%2Fproduct%2Faldrich%2F265454%3Flang%3Den here], [https://www.fishersci.com/store/msds?partNumber=C3500&productDescription=CADMIUM+METAL+GRAN+PURIF+500G&vendorId=VN00033897&countryCode=US&language=en here] and [https://www.teck.com/media/2013-Products-Cadmium_Metal_SDS-T2.5.pdf here], all of which seem to be using the OSHA category numbering system in which 1 is the most hazardous and 4 is the least hazardous. At least based on the guidelines [http://faculty.sites.uci.edu/chem1l/files/2013/12/RDGFireDiamMSDS.pdf here] and the oral LD50 that seems to vary between >1g/kg and ~200mg/kg depending on the source, the solid metal should be a (2/0/0/white).

chemical element infobox, "physical properties" in Georgian language
The first line under "physical properties" in the Georgian language version of the chemical element infobox begins with the word "აგრეგეგატული" ("agregegatuli", 'agregate'), but it should be spelled "აგრეგატული" ("agregatuli"); i.e., there is an extra "ეგ" ("eg"), at least in the articles for silver and cadmium.
