Rock cycle[edit]

The Rock Cycle is an important fundamental concept to geology. This article with help from a peer review has potential to make FA status. So I'd like to request the help of editors here to bring the Rock Cycle up to FA standards. --ZeWrestler Talk 04:56, 25 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! A few suggestions below. Best of luck with the future FAC - FA is definitely in this article's future. Happy holidays!

  • Wikification. Remember: save for the first word in a title or heading, nothing should be capitalized unless it's a proper noun. - taken care of ZeWrestler Talk 05:47, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • NPOV/Referencing. You say that the rock cycle is "usually attributed" to someone. Can you explicity reference this somewhere? Can you give us some alternatives? I hate to start up a big NPOV issue about rocks, but this historical debate could show us some more sides to it, since the writing itself seems so wishy-washy.
  • Historical development. Flesh this section out a bit. What was the "plate tectonics revolution?" What is "uniformitarianism?" I'm assuming some of it may be covered in one of the forked articles, but you need to give us a better context to read it here. Each article should be able to stand on its own, and not depend on forks. -Rebelguys2 00:03, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
