Hi all, I am a student studying Environmental Science at Georgia Tech and will be editing this article as my class project this semester. I am super excited to work on this and feedback is welcomed as this is my first time editing an article! I will be adding information from this research paper: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2020.00551/full Jmarsh36 (talk) 17:39, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

I evaluated the article at its current state and have found the following areas I'd like to work on further. I found the content of the article to be a solid base to start from, with clear areas to expand on and further characterize. Areas to further clarify include the description of a research platform, the functions of a cabled observatory, the research platforms can be used, and the innovations cabled observatories enable. The list of cabled observatories could use an update as some of the links inaccessible or uninformative. The list could be expanded into brief descriptions of each observatory as well. Finally, the article would benefit from a history and recent developments relating to cabled observatories as well as visuals. I found the tone to be professional and I will emulate the existing tone with my edits. I found the sources to be somewhat weak, but the research paper does seem to be a very good source. Many of the other sources are no longer accessible or are low level pages created by the companies operating the observatories. Finally, there are a few statements in the article that need citations, so I will attempt to find the sources for the claims and add them. Overall, the article provides a great starting place to dive into the details! Jmarsh36 (talk) 02:00, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
