message: The one thing I'd like to see to improve the page would be a picture of some actual ammolite jewelry. Other than that, well done! Good to see another unique FA. Radagast 13:22, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
:Korite has graciously fulfilled my request for images: the article now includes two images of the company's mining operations and an excellent image of fine ammolite jewellery. Of course, I'm glad you enjoyed the article prior to its embellishment. :) -- Hadal 05:37, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The vandalism you saw was actually removed quite some time ago, long before you edited the correct image out; as you're not logged in, you were apparently served an outdated cached copy of the article. I've purged the cache, so you shouldn't see any more inappropriate images. -- Hadal 04:19, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: I reverted the article to the last version that I believed was good and removed the copyvio tag, per discussion on IRC.  The full article isn't a copyright violation, only part of it was.  Tuxide 00:41, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Being a featured article I was less apt to barge in like I normally do... I have been adding some infoboxes as a part of trying to provide some consistent lokk to gemology pages. If there are no objections I would add an infobox to the page giving an overview of mineralogical and gemological details. Much like Spessartite, and Grossular. SauliH 07:30, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Does someone have a reference for "official gemstone of the Province of Alberta"? Neither the Legislature page nor the Executive Council booklet mention this. Thanks. --Qyd 01:03, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  "official gemstone of the Province of Alberta." 

message: It is one of the three biogenic gemstones, the other two being amber and pearl.
Why three? There are other biogenic substances used as gemstones, like jet and coral. If anyone is going to argue that they "aren't stones" or "aren't minerals," then neither pearl nor amber belong on that list. I think "three" should be changed to "several," and I am doing so. --♦♦♦Vlmastra♦♦♦ 15:47, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ammolite as one of "three" biogenic gemstones 

message: Huh? 
1) In "Properties" the color comes from interference (thickness of plates); in "Formation ...", the green color comes from iron.
2) In Wikipedia "aragonite", this polymorph is stable 10^7 to 10^8 years at standard temperature and pressure. How do bentonite layers prevent alteration to calcite?

thread_title:  huh? source of color 

message: What is the chemical/mineralogic composition of this?  Is is like opal... and a mineraloid gel, or is it actually a mineral?  The article is unclear... 130.39.191.251 (talk) 21:24, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
