Talk:Bowie Seamount

message: How the Haida Nation came to know that there was a seamount and to give it a name would be most interesting to know. Were they carrying out soundings perhaps?--Wetman (talk) 19:22, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know. I couldn't find any infomation how they knew about the seamount or why they gave it a name. When it has a volcanic island perhaps? Black Tusk (talk) 19:52, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: What do you mean "what is the other position of this controversy?"? The origin section mentions more than one suggestion: mantle plume and ridge. Black Tusk (talk) 22:02, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Please overlook my dim confusion! --Wetman (talk) 03:33, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Explain yourself. I don't see any confusion. Yet another: "depleted in what?" It's already explained: in the Earth's mantle. Black Tusk (talk) 03:41, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I was unsure from your reference to "Faure (2001)" what you intended (as I have little knowledge of this subject). Did you mean this? If so it would be better to cite it in full:
Hope that helps and good luck with the GAN! --RexxS (talk) 01:42, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah. I originally had the book reference in full but another user changed it to its current version, so I kept it how it is. If it's better to give the full book reference I will change it back to how it was. Black Tusk (talk) 01:54, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Book reference 

message: I removed the reference to strontium being a "silvery white metallic element" since it implied that metallic strontium was actually present in the volcanic rocks. Dr. Morbius (talk) 21:38, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: But do lots of people know what strontium is? The strontium introduction was added to help explain what strontium looks like. Lead does not have an introduction because it's a commonly known metal. Black Tusk (talk) 22:03, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It doesn't matter if they don't know what strontium is. This article is about the Bowie Seamount. If they want to learn about strontium they can click the link. If you are going to try to explain every term used in the article then it will become bloated and it will make the article harder to read. Dr. Morbius (talk) 20:49, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is not a dictonary. See WP:NOT. And yes it does matter what strontium is because it's part of the Bowie Seamount structure. Black Tusk (talk) 22:38, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
