Talk:Carbonate platform

Untitled
To user:mente_et_malleo: the article is much improved with the last changes. I suggest, however, a couple of changes should be made before you add more material.


 * The three modes of carbonate precipitation are not equally explained, making the chapter partially unclear. You may move the definition of biotically induced from sub-chapter mud-mound to carbonate sedimentation.


 * The text in chapter depositional environment is now partly a repetition of what you have put in the introduction. You should drop the chapter, saving those part of text which bring valuable infos, and also saving references.


 * It is clear that you have a structure of the article in mind which is not laid down completely yet. You should, first of all, write down all chapters you would like to fill. This would make the structure of the article clear to other readers.

Dear everybody, here's a picture that may be useful. It illustrates the sediments of the present-day lagoon of Florida Bay - it can be clearly seen how most if not all of the sediment is actually carbonate mud (micrite). Move the picture to the article if you find it useful, and change the caption at your will. Aloha, --Kaapitone 17:24, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Have fun... --Kaapitone 08:22, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Remove "needs additional citations" template?
After the latest revisions by several authors (including me), it looks to me that the article contains adequate citations throughout. I would like then to remove the template within the next few days. Any objections? If there is anyone around, not as involved as me in writing this article, who wish to remove in my place, go ahead, you are welcome! --Nereo Preto (talk) 10:06, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

B class assessment
This is very close to deserving a B class. However there is still a chunk of French text in one of the image captions that should be in English. If this is fixed by translation then it could be upgraded to B class for geology. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:10, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

Drowning section
1,000 μm/yr growth rate of carbonates exceeds by orders of magnitude any relative sea level rise that is caused by long-term subsidence, or changes in eustatic sea level. - really? Geopersona (talk) 07:30, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
