Feedback from Nicki (Development of the Terrestrial Planets)
[edit]Hi Ryan, You've chosen a really interesting topic and provided really good descriptions about these unique features. Here are some possible improvements: (1) A map showing where the inter-crater plains and the smooth plains occur. This would also help to show the extent of each of these and which is more prevalent. (2) The formation section (Section II) would benefit from a description (detailed, but still within the Wiki community's ability to understand) of the two methods - fluidized impact ejecta and volcanic deposits. This description of the formation may be able to be combined with the descriptions of the two types of plains in the pre-introduction section. (3) A section about the importance/why do we care about these plains may be useful for the public to understand why we studied them with Messenger and why we should continue to study them. Lastly, it would be easier to follow along if the page was in the typical Wiki format. I found the easies thing to do was look at code from another established Wiki page in order to know how to cite (it automatically counts for you and puts the ref list in order), input images, and create sections. - Nicki Button — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nicki Button (talk • contribs) 04:02, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Sandbox is live
[edit]I have moved your page to Intercrater plains on Mercury, since your work on it has gone stationary for a few weeks. That means that all sorts of people could be editing it now. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:54, 22 April 2014 (UTC)
Stay the course
[edit]Intercrater plains on Mercury is an awesome article for a newbie & you have done a great job. It has since been moved to article mainspace and also nominated for DYK. Meeting those requirements would be an interesting stretch and once done, something you can be proud of. So stay the course & continue your good work on the article.

DYK for Inter-crater plains on Mercury
[edit]![]() | On 19 May 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Inter-crater plains on Mercury, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that inter-crater plains form the oldest surface on Mercury? 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. |
