Comments from Graeme Bartlett edit
Yes it would have been best for Austin to leave comments here, because those embedded in the article will be edited off and gone. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:54, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
Major issues edit
The topic has a fairly narrow scope implied by its title. Perhaps it could be broadened to Geology of the South China Sea, especially since there is a geology section in the South China Sea#Geology page. You could add more information on the sediments, and economic geology (oil and shell grit), and more on volcanoes and earthquakes. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:54, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
Minor issues edit
It would be good for references to have doi= parameters or links to articles that can be read on-line. Dangerous Ground (South China Sea) is actually the name for the place which we have an article about. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:54, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
Suggestions from An edit
1.Figure 8 can be retraced, make it more clear. 2.I’m curious about a new section about “implication for Hydrocarbon (or other resources) exploration. 3.A brief introduction about IODP drilling and survey in the area might be helpful. And put an external link to IODP South China Sea area projects.
Tasha's Review edit
Overall a decent introduction to the South China Sea Techtonics, a few grammatical and continuity issues, but they aren't major. I have two concerns, which are fairly minor; first, not all people will know what Ma stands for, so consider writing a few out eg. 3 million years (3 Ma), second when you have images on both the left and right, consider staggering their locations so there is no image-text-image-sandwich effect, particularly where there are wide images.
Use of copyrighted images edit
As far as I can tell, all the images used in this article are being used without the permission of the copyright holders. This needs to be dealt with quickly or the images will be deleted from commons. Either get permission, or redraw the figures yourself (but don't copy too closely).

Follow the program you set edit
five tectonic evolutionary stages. (1) rift system development (2) sea floor spreading, (3) subsidence of the South China Sea, (4) closure of the South China Sea Basin and (5) uplift of Taiwan. I adjusted the ensuing headings to fit the schema established. (5) Uplift of Taiwan is not discussed.--Wetman (talk) 14:04, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
