My main concern here is that the topic of the history of the continent is a purely geologic topic and not addressing the climatic changes (or environmental changes in general) that is the topic of the class. Perhaps the best thing you can do to this particular article is add a section on "Paleoenvironmental change" and then summarize the climates and history of vegetation (in general, as it reflects climate) on the land during the formation of Laurentia. This would be a sort of brief review of Phanerozoic climate change but limited to the Laurentian continent. So you would have a lot of wikilinks to articles such as Phanerozoic climate. Please check back with me soon as you make more progress. Answer.to.the.rock (talk) 13:58, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
Hello, thank you for the feedback. I just finally found it. Actual additions I have made to the article so far are a couple sentences about continental subduction at the end of the Tectonic setting section as well as the addition of the subtopic Equatorial location. I would like to improve the new subtopic paragraph I wrote a bit. I like your suggestion of adding a "Paleoenvironmental change" section. Putting that together will probably be my largest contribution to the article. WoodPig (talk) 00:51, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
