Feedback from Nicki (Development of the Terrestrial Planets)
[edit]Hi John, I think your page is off to a great start. It's exciting to see something about Venus when the number of pages out there can be limiting. Your introduction provides a really good foundation for the rest of the article. Here are some possible improvements: (1) The introduction, specifically the first sentence, provides a lot of numbers. This may be better displayed in a box to the right (such as on the Wiki page: Venus, but only information relevant to your article) as compared to one all in one sentence. (2) The first model, Episodic Tectonic Models, would be stronger with citations and linking to other Wiki pages and/or external websites. (3) "Here is a list of models and theories that suggest various internal compositions and resurfacing mechanisms on the planet." could be removed and instead within each model description state which model is the most accepted (as well as least accepted and why). Great so far! You've included a lot of detail in what you've written. - Nicki Button

Hi from the online ambassador
[edit]Hello John Tyler
Welcome to Wikipedia, I hope you enjoy your time here and choose to stay. I am an online ambassador for your course, so I will be available to help you out with Wikipedia editing, but not in person. If you want my attention you can email me at Special:EmailUser/Graeme Bartlett or talk to me at User talk:Graeme Bartlett. I am from Australia, in the timezone which is 11 hours ahead of UTC, so I will be awake while you sleep. On the tectonic plate I am moving 24 degrees east of north with a velocity of 54.5 mm/yr and sinking at a rate of 3.5 mm per year. In your draft I would like to see some inline references, so that we can tell where your different facts came from! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:08, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or

DYK for East Antarctic Shield
[edit]On 20 November 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article East Antarctic Shield, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the East Antarctic Shield was joined to what is now the west coast of North America during the time of the Rodinia supercontinent? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/East Antarctic Shield. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

DYK for Geodynamics of Venus
[edit]On 22 April 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Geodynamics of Venus, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that geological activity on Venus is concentrated along its rift zones? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Geodynamics of Venus. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
