Feedback from Matthew Smith[edit]

This looks really good. Looks like you addressed my previous concerns. Small things I see, in your intro maybe move around or put a comma after 2012, since you have a number directly after that it looks a little confusing. Ex 2012, 125 Sols I think you should cite the pictures. You should be able to link “Curiosity’s” to the Curiosity page in the John Klein and Cumberland Samples section. Instead of putting Curiosity’s, put Curiosity’s. Also in the Habitability section link the Mastcam to a website that describes what Mastcam is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chesschamp82 (talkcontribs) 19:58, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Feedback from David Rau[edit]

You have clearly worked hard on your page since the last round of feedback. I believe you have a great start of an original figure. The layers appear to be all the same thickness, so maybe you could alter it so the thickness differences can be seen easier. The page's vocabulary is generally fairly basic which is great for people who aren't familiar with some of the literature. There are a few examples of some words you might want to link just for further clarification such as fluvial in the section explaining the strata, or paleo-environment in the last section. I believe the picture citation is not necessarily wrong. Webb stated that seeing the citation when the reader clicks on the picture is fine, but maybe like Matt said you could go ahead and cite it under your reference list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drau1 (talkcontribs) 08:12, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mars Base Hoax[edit]

No mention of the Secret Mars base as seen on Google Mars? Ok it was an April Fool's joke, but the Tinfoil-Hatter community is still running with it so I thought it might be worth a mention and debunk for anyone searching for the skinny on Wiki for this one. Yes I know it should be damn obvious to everyone, but this is the world we live in today I'm afraid. So anyway, who's up for the job? Tarquin Q. Zanzibar (talk) 01:52, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
