Why not? It's a rather legitimate topic. Lanthanum-138 (talk) 14:02, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Possibly, though with the lack of sources it's hard to say. I don't see how it belongs on the Biogeochemical template those; those are all about chemicals needed for life. Mercury just happens to pass through living creatures. Bennetto (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:18, 30 March 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Since toxicity and regulations regarding mercury is already covered in Mercury (element), removal of those sections in mercury cycle page needs to be considered, so the cycle itself can be more focused. More information regarding natural sources and sinks from peer-reviewed papers will need to be covered in this page. There are decent amount of source cited in this page, and most of the links worked properly. However, there were less peer-reviewed papers than the page should have. Numerous sources are governmental, and there is one reference from a magazine. Additional peer-reviewed papers would make this page more scientific, intellectual, and neutral.
