message: I reverted to Revision as of 04:23, 21 September 2005 Vsmith because too much material was copied from http://www.nas.edu/history/mohole/.  (SEWilco 15:33, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

I have e-mailed both NAS and NSF and the reply was that it is in the public domain. NSF did ask to be creditted, which I did on Commons. BoH 16:56, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Significant reversion 

message: One thing I can remember from when I was a little kid was that, around 1969 or 1970, the comic strip The Captain and the Kids had a long continued story that used Project Mohole as its background, and somehow tied it into some sort of convoluted sinister plot by an arch-villain to conquer the world from an undersea base that the heroes ultimately defeated.  The story went on for months in the Sunday strips, as I recall. *Dan T.* 16:05, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified (January 2018) 

message: I'll likely start to rewrite this article soon - revise, reorganize, develop, expand, citations, etc.  There is quite a lot of material on Mohole, some citations I've added under Bibliography in the past. I propose dropping the association of this article with Wikiproject Physics above (???).  I also challenge the assessment of the article's importance to Geology (why no Wikiproject Geophysics???) as "Low" - Mohole was a direct predecessor to the Deep Sea Drilling Project and an important development for the oil industry towards deep ocean drilling.  While not "Top" it is certainly better than "Low", IMO.  How to rate it?  Left to myself, I might go with Medium or slightly above that.  It is interesting that some 60 years later, no one has yet reached the Moho...drilling there seems to have proved to be more difficult than anticipated.  Bdushaw (talk) 05:02, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revisions 

message: I've removed a new section describing moholes in the context of a fictional work to do with the Mars Trilogy as not relevant to the article.  However, I note that Mohole redirects to this article - should perhaps Mohole be a disambiguation page?  Requesting discussion! Bdushaw (talk) 12:56, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
