Talk:Llandovery Epoch

AMK152's Geotimeboxes
AMK152 proposed in edits of 27 December 2006 a geotimebox for this article as follows:

I feel that the box information that is appropriate for the article is already in the footer, and that other extraneous information, such as previous eons, can be supplied where important, by links from the text. I removed the geotimebox and left the footer, pending discussion. --Bejnar 23:37, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Issues arising from merger
The Llandovery Group and the Llandovery Epoch are almost wholly different things - the geology section is simply a reference to certain rocks in Wales and some other parts of 'these islands' whilst the Llandovery epoch is of worldwide significance. After this merger, much work is required adding, tweaking and deleting material before this article can be considered reasonable. cheers Geopersona (talk) 08:17, 4 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Not only that, some of the rocks described in that section are actually Ordovician in age, rather than from the Llandovery Epoch (lower Silurian). This merge should never taken place. Mikenorton (talk) 20:26, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree. I am up for taking that section out again and putting it someplace else. I have a lot more to add to this article but I find it hard to add enough specific geology material for other regions to balance this large section on the UK. Keeping this in will always make the article unbalanced. The article needs to have more material on corals and maybe the thalloid plants.--Akrasia25 (talk) 20:34, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * The thing is that I'm not sure that there is anywhere else to put it. It is such an outdated view of UK stratigraphy. It mixes up lots of different groups and formations, mostly with out of date names. I seriously doubt that there is any useful content there. Mikenorton (talk) 22:46, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
 * This section was cut and pasted from EB1911 so I am sure it is old. New stuff can be brought back into it if needed later. I am deleting the section. Let's make a good article now.--Akrasia25 (talk) 01:16, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
