message: The salt hotels aren´t a tourist attraction, they´re an illegal eyesore. Reputable tours don´t visit them and people shouldn´t use their ´facilities´ as it will only pollute the salt pans.

message: An explanation of why the salt layer is floating would be helpful. Fig (talk) 21:44, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The salt layer is not floating on anything. It is just an incorrect and misleading impression given by a badly worded sentence. The salt crust rests on lacustrine mud that is saturated with brine and interbedded with salt. Paul H. (talk) 18:54, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Structure 

message: "The Salar is virtually devoid of any wildlife or vegetation. The latter is dominated by giant cacti... Other shrubs..."  Seems contradictory.  Never having been there, and guessing that plants don't grow on the salt flats themselves, perhaps this means that cacti and other shrubs grow on rock outcroppings (including the "islands")?  Someone who knows should clarify this wording. Mcswell (talk) 17:40, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hard to understand 

message: In the Economic Influence section, first paragraph, last sentence, there is reference to government plans to build their own plant, gradually scaling up production, giving a target volume for 2012.
According to http://evworld.com/blogs/index.cfm?authorid=209,  the plant has not yet been built, but is scheduled for May 2012.  Intended production of lithium batteries has been delayed from 2014 to 2015.
I think there needs to be comment added to the article, identifying the delay.   I have not done it, as I am not sure where to put it, or how to write it.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hi! I just wanted to offer some suggestions for improving the page.
I think that the lead covers a good amount and breadth of general information. The first section, Formation, geology, and climate, may benefit from some subheadings to clarify each of the three topics mentioned in the heading. On content, it may be useful to define when the wet season is, and add that to the tourism section as well. In addition, the Name section might be better at the top of the page rather than as the third section. The flora and fauna section may benefit from description of the landscape, as well as other flora or pictures of the flora currently mentioned.
Thank you, and happy editing! Jkolli (talk) 03:33, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  General Suggestion Overview 

message: In the article about salt pans it is stated that "[Salar de Uyuni] contains 50% to 70% of the world's known lithium reserves", however in this article it is stated that "Bolivia holds about 7% of the world's known lithium resources; most of those are in the Salar de Uyuni". These are very different numbers ArchangelGabriel0723 (talk) 00:51, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
