- ... that a meteorite called EETA 79001 (pictured) from the Elephant Moraine was found to come from Mars?

Article new enough, long enough, fully referenced. Hook fine, interesting, verified against online source. NASA image on Commons so PD. Looks weird at any size. No QPQ required. Good to go! Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:36, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
- The wording on this one doesn't seem to flow right. What do you thing of
- ALT1 ... that the meteorite EETA 79001 (pictured), found in Elephant Moraine, came from Mars?
- ALT2 ... that the meteorite EETA 79001 (pictured), recovered from Elephant Moraine, was found to have come from Mars?
- Graeme Bartlett, Aturn4000, Hawkeye7 - Thoughts? Sven Manguard Wha? 04:52, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- I have added a space to ALT2, but both are fine by me. ALT1 is slightly more compact. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:34, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- It took me a while to figure out why you thought that it didn't "flow right". I think your problem was the repetition of "from". Prefer ALR2 for this reason. I think the ALTs should refer tothe Elephant Moraine as the original does. Hawkeye7 (talk) 19:58, 11 April 2014 (UTC)
- So that would be ::ALT3 ... that the meteorite EETA 79001 (pictured), recovered from the Elephant Moraine, was found to have come from Mars?
- I am happy with that too, sounding better than alt2. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:52, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

- Re-marking this so it gets noticed. ALT3 is the consensus pick, and since all of the alts are just re-wordings of the same fact, Hawkeye7's check stands. Sven Manguard Wha? 08:44, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
