Hello, I will be reviewing this article as part of the January GAN drive. Please expect comments from me within the next few days. Kimikel (talk) 04:05, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Volcanoguy: Please see my comments below. There's not too to much to fix, just a couple small things for clarity. Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns regarding my suggestions. Thank you! Kimikel (talk) 15:36, 25 January 2025 (UTC)
Well-written
Geography
- Between the Boundary Ranges and the Kitsu Plateau is Mess Creek valley which extends more than 30 kilometres (19 miles) to the north where it separates the Zagoddetchino massif from the Big Raven Plateau in the east. Between the Boundary Ranges and the Kitsu Plateau is Mess Creek valley, which extends more than 30 kilometres (19 miles) to the north where it separates the Zagoddetchino massif from the Big Raven Plateau in the east.
- This roughly 10-kilometre-long (6.2-mile) and 6-kilometre-wide (3.7-mile) plateau > Roughly 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) long and 6 kilometres (3.7 miles) wide, the Kitsu Plateau
- volcanic complex which also > volcanic complex, which also
- This volcanic complex > The volcanic complex
- Kitsu Creek which originates > comma
- The western, northern and southern edges of the Kitsu Plateau are marked by steep cliffs forming the Mess Creek Escarpment, the southern side of Raspberry Creek valley and the northern side of Nagha Creek valley, respectively. > Need oxford commas in this case for clarity
- Mess Lake Lava Field which extends > comma
Geology
- the Big Raven Formation which was deposited > comma
- They were highly fluid and mobile at the time of their eruption as evidenced by their extreme persistence and relatively narrow thicknesses; individual basalt flows are normally less than 3 metres (9.8 feet) thick. > Are you saying that the average basalt flow is normally less than 3 meters thick in general, or that the basalt flows at the Armadillo Formation are generally less than 3 meters thick? Either way, a second number for comparison would be good here (i.e. they're normally x meters thick, but the ones here are generally y meters thick)
- Kounugu Member which is the only > comma
- consists of comendite > wl comendite
- Spectrum Formation which is exposed > comma
- comendite, pantellerite and pantelleritic trachyte which are in the form of lava domes and lava flows > this makes it seem like comendite is excluded from the rocks that are in the form of lava domes and lava flows; if that's not the case, I would try something to the effect of "comendite, pantellerite, and pantelleritic trachyte, all in the form of lava domes and lava flows,"
- I don't see how the current wording excludes comendite? Volcanoguy 16:45, 25 January 2025 (UTC)
- I could be wrong on this so go with whatever you feel is right, but to me, with the commas where they are, it seems like the sentence is broken into three groups: {comendite}, {pantellerite and pantelleritic trachyte which are in the form of lava domes and lava flows}, as well as {minor breccia and ash flow deposits}. If I'm not making sense just ignore me but that's how it came off to me when I first read it. Kimikel (talk) 17:08, 25 January 2025 (UTC)
- Kitsu Member which is mainly exposed > comma
- Spectrum trachyte flows on the Kitsu Plateau are relatively thin compared to those forming the adjacent Spectrum Range, but they are the most distal remnants of the main Spectrum Dome. > Spectrum trachyte flows on the Kitsu Plateau are the most distal remnants of the main Spectrum Dome and are relatively thin compared to those forming the adjacent Spectrum Range.
