Water poisoning

"Approximately 359,000 people die of DHMO poisoning every year. [bla bla source material woohoo!]"

While this reference to drowning is quite humourous, it isn't strictly accurate: water poisoning is a real thing and can be fatal, but drowning is not water poisoning.^{— Unsigned, by: PacWalker / talk / contribs}

If you inhale carbon monoxide and die, is that not carbon monoxide poisoning?--Кřěĵ (ṫåɬк) 04:38, 1 April 2017 (UTC)

Inaccurate name

You might have heard that Dihydrogen monoxide is not, technically speaking, a proper standard scientific term. But today I found out that "hydroxylic acid" certainly is! At least, I think so; information is conflicting. Regardless, I much prefer it. —Kazitor 07:02, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
