User talk:Melissausburn

Hey Melissa! First off I want to say that your wiki page is very informative and highly interesting; you have done a great job with flow of the material and your pictures are amazing. I am very impressed! A few things I would work on is first provide more links back to uncommon words in the section titled "Life on Mars". I see that you have a lot of links on other paragraphs, and so I think this one paragraph could use a few more. The next thing I would do is cite your pictures, not the ones that are your own work, but the ones that you get from wiki commons or from a government cite. I know you have plans to add 2 more paragraphs on the section for geologic and biologic history, which will make your page even better, I would maybe look at adding more to the last paragraph on habitation on lava tubes. I find that fascinating, and see if there is any images of what a habitat on Mars could look like would be really neat. One of my "grown-up" projects is to build a house into the earth and have it regulated by the earth, and I think there is interest in this period so take my advice for what you will, I think it is a super cool topic and you have done a wonderful job so far! Watch out for simple little grammatical errors like punctuation capitalization, but bravo Melissa :) Eblamble (talk) 13:56, 6 March 2014 (UTC)Erica Allen

Hi from the online ambassador
Hello Melissa

Welcome to Wikipedia, I hope you enjoy your time here and choose to stay. I am an online ambassador for your course, so I will be available to help you out with Wikipedia editing, but not in person. If you want my attention you can email me at Special:EmailUser/Graeme Bartlett or talk to me at User talk:Graeme Bartlett. I am from Australia, in the timezone which is 11 hours ahead of UTC, so I will be awake while you sleep. On the tectonic plate I am moving 24 degrees east of north with a velocity of 54.5 mm/yr and sinking at a rate of 3.5 mm per year.

Have you drawn a map of the geology or tectonics of the Chiricahua Mountains? Some sort of timeline could be good too. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:11, 11 October 2013 (UTC)
