Socompan microbes

[edit]

I came to this article hoping to learn more about the microbial ecosystems found on Socompa (the highest such ecosystems in the world, apparently), but they are not even mentioned. All I know is what's in the article I've just linked to. 125.168.127.32 (talk) 04:54, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I've added it myself now and also made some style-related edits while I was there. 125.168.127.32 (talk) 09:14, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

[edit]

This source suggests it may be an Atacameno name derived from a deity but I don't know if this source is reliable. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:30, 24 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unofficial PR

[edit]

Done to the start of the Geology section. It's in very good shape already – I'll finish off in the morning. Cheers - SchroCat (talk) 19:51, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All in all it reads nicely – including the technical parts, which are always tricky to get understandable to the layman, but you've done a great job with it. Ping me when you get to FAC. Cheers – SchroCat (talk) 07:48, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
