Talk:Isua Greenstone Belt

message: Hi Annie
Your article is informative and comprehensive and easy to read. It's an excellent work with good structure and content. No major revise is needed and I'm here only to give some minor suggestions.
The intro for Isua Greenstone Belt is nice, though I think you can have a map view showing the geological units of this place.
You can enlarge the second figure which showing types of rocks that were formed and when during the evolution of the Isua Greenstone Belt, it's a good carton but merely readable because its small size. And I don't know what's the Y-axis supposed to be, is it depth or something else?
You do have a lot of words under the third figure, and I think it's unnecessary. I think you only need to put down a concise description of it under this figure and move all the further explanation into the context of tectonics section.

message: With all the pages that link here, this article deserves a little clean-up.  It's pretty unreadible right now, and since I have no geology background, I'm not going to try to touch it up.  A picture would be nice too.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eganjt (talk • contribs) 14:14, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It deserves more than a little cleanup; more like a complete rewrite.  In its present form, it's mostly a set of passages copied nearly verbatim from various research papers with little thought for appropriateness or structure.  I've tagged it accordingly, and I've also added a note at WikiProject Geology's talk page.
Ill do something soon after m done with my exams!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.184.133.28 (talk) 16:45, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

message: This article appears to have been copied from several sources, examples of which are shown below where I compare the revision of 04:02, 16 August 2006 with the sources.  Given that a single user introduced everything in this revision it is therefore all of concern (see also this talk page history for a more complete analysis). This version is foundational to anything after that so all following versions are also copyright concerns.  Most of it is extremely close paraphrasing rather than straight copying, although there is some straight copying.  Given the extremely close paraphrasing, the fact that structure is often very similar and the number of sources I think this is enough of a copyright concern that deletion of this text is the only sensible option.  As such I have reverted to the previous version. Dpmuk (talk) 12:51, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

message: The commonest name is "Isua Supracrustal Belt", looking on google, google scholar and google books. I intend to move the page to that title, but I'll wait for comment. Mikenorton (talk) 19:30, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: Per WP:COMMONNAME, it's best to use either Google Books or News Archive (which is unhelpful for this topic). On Books - ISB has 1,750, ICB 937. For comparison, on Scholar ISB has 2,050, ICB 1,190. Mikenorton (talk) 22:11, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

message: I suggest a new article for what's currently in the #Discovery of early life section - that discovery truly seems to be notable enough for a separate article on it. Once the new article has been created that section should probably shrinked to a rather short summary of the findings.
This article is on the Greenlandish greenstone belt and not about findings revealing info about the origin of life that happen to have been made there.
(I already suggested this on Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates but didn't get any reply.)

convincingly show that the so-called "stromatolites" are instead granoblastic quartz + dolomite boudins.
