This was extremely amusing and I very much enjoyed it. I'm sure all the WikiProject Geology people will get a real kick out of it :p ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 13:26, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously the particle physicists and nuclear physicists should weigh in en mass. OBVIOUSLY. kencf0618 (talk 14:25, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The whole thing struck me as very parochial limited thought, sorry for the stereotyping but it obviously comes from a rocky planet perspective. I can assure you no gas giant dweller would have written this. It would benefit from a top note stating that obviously all features on gas giants are by definition notable.

Y'know, for a second I thought this was real. And then I clicked a link and shortly after realized this was "/Humo(u)r". ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:49, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • As a geologist, this was hysterical, though it took me a moment to realize this was the Humour article. Nice writing. --SilverTiger12 (talk) 18:05, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • An old-time fan of geology; I join in the hope that Dr Glockenspiel can do similar research reviews for other sciences. Astronomy would be my favorite. Jim.henderson (talk) 21:33, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Finally, the project joins the contemporary eon. Wikipetra, formerly just another mirror site, has had this kind of thing in place since the Mesozoic. Axem Titanium (talk) 23:52, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
