Plagiarism
Hi, looking at your sandbox, I notice that you have copied a sentence completely from another source. That is the first sentence in your writing starting at "During the last 20 Ma". This is not acceptable, and you should rewrite everything in your own words. I can see it in https://www.scribd.com/document/30444206/Introduction-to-Geology-and-geodynamics-of-Iceland-Reidar-Tr%C5%A1nnes and also http://docplayer.net/21193881-Retrograde-alteration-of-basaltic-rocks-in-the-theistareykir-high-temperature-geothermal-field-north-iceland.html.

Did you know
Hello Ron.

I have nominated the page you wrote for the WP:Did you know evaluation. If the article passes this means that an exciting fact from the geological deformation of Iceland page will be linked from the Wikipedia mainpage. Then hundreds to thousands of readers will come to read the page. This means that we have to get the most exciting fact from your article. A picture that looks good when small is also attractive. I have included one picture. For the facts I have: "the geological deformation of Iceland is resulting in cracks opening up (example pictured) in the surface" and "there are two major transform faults zones where Iceland is actively deforming". If you can come up with extra short facts from the article that would be great. Also are you able to confirm that these statements are actually true, and that the reference confirms them? There may be requests from a reviewer for extra referencing or fixing problems. This extra work is optional. But I hope you would find it rewarding to have many people looking at your work.

DYK for Geological deformation of Iceland

Geological deformation of Iceland
Hello! I saw your article, Geological deformation of Iceland on DYK today, so I took the liberty to furnish it with new images. Please let me know if you have any concerns with them, but I believe that I matched your intent. To know one reason why I did this, please see c:Commons:Transition to SVG. Note that that is not a rule, you have done nothing wrong. It is just a suggestion for a way vector graphics artists like myself can improve the encyclopedia by using SVG to allow images to look better on high resolution displays and high resolution mobile phones. I have added the images I replaced below for your convenience so you can see them both without leaving this page. Thank you very much for your contributions to Wikipedia.
