Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial

 * Simplified Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Doug Weller talk 15:26, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

World-renowned forensic geologist, Scott Wolter
I don't know if you are convinced that Wolter is correct, but not only isn't he a reliable source by our criteria at WP:RS (not that you've even used a source, see WP:VERIFY, but we shouldn't call anyone world-renowned. And of course if he really were, you could show that he's the recipient of various awards by other geologists, has written many peer reviewed papers in reputable geology journals, etc. But that hasn't happened and I don't think he's even written any properly published books. ANd this isn't what we mean by peer-reviewed. Doug Weller  talk 15:58, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
