 * The FAR for History of the Grand Canyon area came at a bad time. But I should have some free time for this one after this weekend. BTW - I don't check my watch list anymore so the most effective way to get my attention is to leave a message on my talk page. --mav (reviews needed) 22:25, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * ah, ha ... so we can credit URFA for dragging you back in here !! Bst, Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 19:51, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Something like that. :) --mav (reviews needed) 02:10, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * A lot of the current citations have this wording added to them already: "For the whole paragraph, except where noted". So it should not be a problem adding more cites as needed once I get all the books in front of me to confirm. --mav (reviews needed) 02:15, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
 * , please keep the page posted on your timing. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 14:25, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

 * I'm going through my relevant books now. --mav (reviews needed) 23:26, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
 * First pass done. Refs distributed and many overlinks nixed. --mav (reviews needed) 00:36, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
 * , you haven't edited since 28 April-- are you waiting for feedback? Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 19:42, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Still needing citation. Mav, I'm confused about this article organization: Can that be instead:
 * 1.1 Cutler and Kaibab formations (Permian)
 * 1.2 Moenkopi Formation (Triassic)
 * 1.3 Chinle Formation (Triassic)
 * 1.4 Glen Canyon Group (Triassic)
 * 1.5 San Rafael Group (Jurassic)
 * 1.6 Morrison Formation (Jurassic)
 * 1.7 Cedar Mountain and Dakota formations (Cretaceous)
 * 1.8 Mancos Shale and Mesaverde Formation (Cretaceous)
 * Permian
 * Cutler and Kaibab formations
 * Triassic
 * Moenkopi Formation
 * Chinle Formation
 * Glen Canyon Group
 * Jurassic
 * San Rafael Group
 * Morrison Formation
 * Cretaceous
 * Cedar Mountain and Dakota formations
 * Mancos Shale and Mesaverde Formation

Move to FARC to keep process on track; work still to be done, no recent work. Sandy Georgia (Talk) 13:31, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delist, it looks like Mav is gone again, there are still issues, including a good deal of uncited text. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 18:36, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delist. On a very quick scan, I could find "can't" in the prose, and I can see "1,500 foot thick" as well as "400 feet thick" being used, indicating that on closer inspection other copy-edits would be apparent. Some of the uncited text is descriptive of local conditions, which to some extent is verifiable by visiting the site (although notability of the material cannot be verified without citation); however, there is text such as "presence of planktonic foraminifera was used to date this member" that is not self-evident.
