There are a number of chemicals linked from optical brightener that are probably used. What other chemicals are used to make UV marker ink? —Ben FrantzDale (talk) 13:50, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think this article needs to be proofread and edited heavily before it meets Wikipedia standards of good writing. No offense meant to the original author, as I'm sure they put in a lot of effort, but it's quite jarring. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.221.37.8 (talk) 11:04, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Which is why I am now tagging it as such. This article reads like a 4th grade student (with a D in writing) composed it. A loose necktie (talk) 10:36, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• It is also confuses invisible inks in general with UV inks and assumes that LEDs are the only way of reading the markings, when they are actually a rather recent option. It also digresses into off topic information related to other uses of near UV light sources. David Woolley (talk) 18:58, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I did a complete copyedit cleanup sweep, but there is still plenty of room for improvement, especially with the references. The writing still needs better conceptual organization and focus. Reify-tech (talk) 16:49, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
