Nice work. The images are fantastic. I think the pulsating continents model might need a little more information in the caption. Maybe add one more image of other types of tessera terrain that exist under the "Variety of Tessera Terrain" section. It was hard for me to find anything wrong with this, well done!

Good job, I think the section for Models needs further interpretation and maybe you could add illustrative images that can help with understanding each model. another thing, it would be nice for the reader to click the reference in order to to look into the designated paper right away. Including a URL to every reference would be a great addition to you work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AmmarBanafea (talkcontribs) 23:21, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Ammar. I am working on some illustrations for the models right now, but it is taking me some time.


Suggestions from Citra

Hi Shelby! The first thing that caught my intention from your page is the picture of the tessarae locations. It was a great picture that supports your content of that section. You might want to add more caption on it to make it more descriptive. Generally, your page is pretty well-organized. However, under the Formation section, instead of breaking the section to Models then breaking it down again to the different models, you may want to consider just breaking it down directly to the different type of models. So, for instance, you may want to organize it like:

  3. Formation
      3.1 Mantle Upwelling Model
      3.2 Lava Ponds Model

Also, there were a few places where I have problem understanding the concept, so you may want to put more description to it. I notice minor grammatical errors, but overall your content is pretty great so far. Planetarysprotege (talk) 03:03, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Citra, I will look into better formatting for the formation section.

Good to see you landed on a classification scheme, I was having trouble picking one to use as well. Page looks good, and the image is great. I noticed a couple of typos:

  • " Tessera Terrain do not participate in the global resurfacing events of Venus.
  • The most recent data concerning tessera terrain comes from the Magellan Mission, in which the majority of Venus's surface was mapped in high resolution (~100 m/pixel).

Other than that, can you get images of a tesserae that may illustrate the different categories. I don't know if Megellan images are usable on wiki, but it would help the reader see the different types.

Thanks Andrew, I was planning on getting some nasa images. I have a few but haven't figured out which ones I want to use. Also, I was going to draw out formation models, but didn't have time before this point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sjoh197 (talkcontribs) 15:31, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Shelby, I think you have done a great job on this page so far. The formatting of the page flows very nicely and the text is easy to read and concise. You may want to consider including a title on the map of the interpretive outline of the tessera terrain. When you scroll through the page, it is not immediately clear what the image is showing until you read the smaller caption. I thought the way you illustrated the models turned out very well. You might want to align the model of the pulsating continents with that of the downwelling and the lava pond vs giant impact models to make it look more uniform. Finally, if possible and not extremely necessary you could include a figure showing the different types of tessera terrain just to show the differences between them. That is entirely up to you. Good job!

Shelby, this page looks great! I can tell you've put a lot of research into it. I didn't see much that needs to be improved in the formatting, you seem to have nailed that. I only found a few typos/tense shifts that can be reviewed further. "It was thought by many researches that the Tesserae might form a global "onion skin" of sorts, and extended beneath Venus's regional plains." Your imagery is well displayed, fully described in both caption and text. Good job, otherwise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mangolava (talkcontribs) 09:58, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
