- ... that there are at least 19 phases of ice, though only one is normally seen on Earth?
- Source: [1]
- ALT1: ... that a rare phase of ice can be present inside diamonds formed deep in the Earth's mantle? Source: [2]
- ALT2: ... that ice in outer space is amorphous solid, and it is likely the most common phase of ice in the universe? Source: [3]
- ALT3: ... that one of the artificially produced phases of ice, ice XVII, could potentially be used for hydrogen storage in environmental technology? Source: [4]

- Article has been copied from a section in another and then expanded more that tenfold. No visible problems, good to go. I prefer ALT2. Cambalachero (talk) 02:44, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Large number of refs to del Rossi[edit]
The article has a lot of refs to one primary reference:

This seems inappropriate for a short non-review source. Johnjbarton (talk) 18:07, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, I didn't spot it at first because of how it and several other references were hidden behind that {{r| template, but now that I removed it to standardize reference structure, I see that the large chunk of that section is referenced to either that article, or its apparent 2017 and 2020 follow-ups from the same researchers. Clearly not ideal, but then again, this whole subject appears to have been niche enough that only a few researchers dominate the output at any given time.
- Now that I completed the sequence of discovery dates in the table, this seems especially apparent: effectively, Bridgman discovered the first group of phases in the 1900s, then Whalley discovered several more in 1960s, a few more phases were discovered by various researchers in the 1970s-1990s, and then the bulk of recent discoveries appear to belong to Saltzmann and del Rosso groups. I am not sure if it's going to be easy to find many alternate references to balance out those sections. InformationToKnowledge (talk) 19:06, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Ice XI[edit]
The article seems to contradict itself on whether the ice XI phase is hexagonal or orthorhombic. The phase diagram in the lead doesn't help, as there are two different phases labeled as ice XI. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 19:01, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Ice XI is thought to be a more stable conformation[edit]
The section on Earth has a paragraph about conflicting reports that appears to be WP:OR. That is the comparison and thus judgement of various primary references is done by a Wikipedia editor. I think the paragraph should be replaced by content from a review, eg

It is criminal for this article not to make reference to…[edit]
…Kurt Vonnegut’s fictional version of Ice IX, an arrangement of water molecules packed so efficiently stable that any other water molecules it ever comes in contact with — like those in every living being on earth, instantly organize themselves into Ice IX also, leading to a chain reaction that freezes the entire world over. There could even be its own section about why the thermodynamics of this would be impossible. I think it was Cat’s Cradle where this made its appearance, but I could be wrong. 76.174.113.253 (talk) 08:44, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Speaking of crimes of omission, your references, required by WP:VERIFY and WP:PSTS, seem to be missing. Johnjbarton (talk) 14:44, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
