This user has edited an article to insert information that is entirely irrelevant to it.

The Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis refers to a cosmic impaact event that occurred 13,000 years ago.

This IP used claims from a paper detailing an entirely separate incident that occurred 3,600 years ago in order to cast doubt on the claims around the YDIH.

The evidence specifically in question is that of shock metamorphosed quartz grains, which the Bunch et al. 2021 study claimed to have been formed during the proposed impact event.

While this claim is controversial, and is not yet consensus science, there are several studies pending publication from Bunch et al. that expand more on the idea that shocked quartz can be formed during airburst events instead of just cratering events.

Regardless, claims made by some YDIH proponents about entirely separate impact events regarding a line of evidence that is not relevant to the YDIH is inappropriate for inclusion on the YDIH page. Incendiex90 (talk) 06:53, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
