4/3 Assignment - Really nicely organized sandbox Bing! Also nice work responding to one of the articles you read (extra credit!) EKM2018 (talk) 17:40, 9 April 2018 (UTC) 4/7 Assignment - Nice job adding to content and citations on multiple pages (extra credit!) EKM2018 (talk) 17:54, 9 April 2018 (UTC) 4/10 Assignment - It doesn't seem like the topic you picked is the same as what you have notes on in your sandbox. You should add to these notes, thinking about what your sources could be, what the article needs and what you will add. (-0.5 point) EKM2018 (talk) 17:36, 17 April 2018 (UTC) 4/21 Assignment - Good number of sources, but try to get some more non-journal sources. Also you should try to maybe go back and organize a list of sources with short summaries of what you are trying to get from each? It could help with what Will is suggesting, and give you more direction with how they will fit into your article outline. Also, since there in fact is a page, you should post this to the talk page to get some feedback. EKM2018 (talk) 04:49, 30 April 2018 (UTC) 4/28 Assignment - Good start on the article. Try to get a bit more organization. I think it will help you stay focused while you write. EKM2018 (talk) 04:49, 30 April 2018 (UTC) 5/2 Presentation Feedback - Really work on stream lining your concise definition/explanation of what this term even is. Keep it simple and direct. I think this is your biggest goal and will help the page a lot - improving the "lead" section and really clarifying for readers. How are pseudofaults related? Are they always associated with propagating rifts? Can you expand the occurrences section? I think you should list all the possible names for this term on the page under a "Terminology" section or something, and defining the subtle differences. Within a "Consequences" section you could talk about how propagating rifts are related to seismicity when subducted? I think the best way to go about writing this page is to take your general outline and then expand upon it as you learn more from your sources, then expand upon each of those within as best you can (you don't have to do EVERYTHING), at least defining them.

 * Apprecite the feedback, they are very helpful!!! --Bing Y. Lee (talk) 17:37, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

5/5 Assignment - First Draft Notes - Really really nice start! I did some grammar fixes but I would work on some wording and clarifying. I don't think you need to expand too much more of this - it is a nice length with generally really thorough explanations! Let me know if you have any questions about rewording! EKM2018 (talk) 15:59, 9 May 2018 (UTC) 5/27 Assignment - Second Draft Notes - Since you took your page live (which is great!) I'm giving you your edits here only. Overall great length. Well cited with links to other pages and nice concise, writing. Good figures - can you potentially move the JdF one up so that it is near the pseudo faults section? Link "back-arc basin" to its page in the intro. Also - Some of the sections need some grammar help! I tried to put in the fragments that need to be fixed with the edits in capitals, hopefully you can find them. Intro - "in another word" should be "in other words"; "...at the expense of THE shrinking..." Formation - "as a result of A change"; "younger, weaker" not "younger-weaker"; "case of spreading ridges" (remove "a") Identif. - "ARE a distinct feature"; "morphological depressionS" Geom. - "instead of A transform fault" Hotspot - parentheses in point 1 are confusing, just put whole sentence. "as A migrating hotspot intrusion..."; "A hotspot (with high heating rate)"; "center and hotspot migrate together" (not migrates); "hotspot and spreading center migrate" (again migrate not migrates) Hope those help! You are VERY close to being done I think with these edits! Nice work and wrap it up! EKM2018 (talk) 05:54, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Sources Feedback
This is a great topic and you are off to a good start?

You do not have to get permission to edit the Propagating Rifts page - Wikiedu confirmed that. I am not quite sure what you mean by "(Bibliography not posted on the talk page, waiting for Will to get confirmation from wikiedu)" - your bibliography and draft article should be in your sandbox where it is until it is ready to move to the Wikipedia page. As you plan your article you should consider how you will build upon the article that is already there rather than just writing the page from scratch. What is right and what is wrong with the current page? What needs to be added?

You have some good references but I think you need to work a little more on getting the key point(s) for some of them. The key point of a paper will normally be in the abstract so that is a good way of checking.

Morgan and Sandwell (1994) does state that propagating ridges are mostly seen for spreading rates of 33-75 mm/yr but that is misleading as you restate this because they are referring to what one can see with Satellite data, not where ridge propagation occurs. Propagating rifts are very common on fast spreading ridges.

Kleinrock et al (1997) is interesting in that they see ridge propagation at a slow spreading ridge. That is not normally reported.

You have focused on the role of hotspots in propagating rifts that lead to ridge jumps but there are other mechanisms. Kleinrock et al. (1997) have a section on potential causes which reviews the ideas from about 20 years ago. Some of the other papers may also cover this in their introductions. i think many researchers now think that away from hotspots, PRs form due to changes in plate motion.

I think a key part of an improved wikipedia page should be a discussion of the mechanisms that lead to the formation and control the direction of propagating rifts.

Peer Review (by Jalyn Buckley)
Bing - Really great work on this article. The content is clear and the structure is easy to follow!

Comments/Suggestions:
 * Perhaps consider moving the "Occurrence" section towards the beginning of your article and renaming this section to "History" or "Discovery"
 * You might want to consider attaching hyperlinks to the other terms describing propagating rifts

Instructor Review 5/30
This is a really great article. I love the figure and the level of detail

I noticed a few missing/erroneus cross links. For exmple
 * spreading centers (get the 1st not 2nd incidence)
 * back-arc basins (you can cross link to the slightly different wording of "back arc basin" using the the pipe "|" divider (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial/Wikipedia_links)
 * hotspot - only link the first occurance
 * replace crust by oceanic crust and then link
 * I think you could figure out a few more places to do things like this

I would modify the very last sentence to something like "They were soon found in other locations including the Galapagos Spreading Center and East Pacific Rise, and are now known to be ubiquitous on fast and intermediate spreading rate ridges."

For the East Pacific Rise in the sentence above I would cite Macdonald, Ken C., P. J. Fox, L. J. Perram, M. F. Eisen, R. M. Haymon, S. P. Miller, Sm M. Carbotte, M-H. Cormier, and A. N. Shor. "A new view of the mid-ocean ridge from the behaviour of ridge-axis discontinuities." Nature 335, no. 6187 (1988): 217. This reference would also suffice for the statement that they are ubiquitous at fast and intermediate spreading rate ridge

There would be noting to stop you creating figures of propagating rifts at other locations. There is a really nice wake visible in the bathymetry at 9°N on the East Pacific Rise. I will send you the image. You could create a nicer one in GeoMapApp (stretching he color scale) and annotate it. William Wilcock (talk) 05:15, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
