1. Three related topics
A) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alluvial_fan
B) The concept of this page is an overall outlook on alluvial fans focusing on a definition, formation, and climates which are important because it gives a better understanding to what an alluvial fan is and a why and where of its location.
C) The page could use a diagram to help explain the process of the formation of an alluvial fan to clearly allow the reader to see the process along with a step by step explanation.
D) The page does a good job of explaining the different climates of the alluvial fans, however the page could improve on the definition and process of the development of an alluvial fan, it appears to be a little brief.
E) The first picture on the page is a satellite image of an alluvial fan which gives the reader a very good image of what an alluvial fan is, however the pictures for the climates are not very good because they are small and seem to be very distant which makes it unclear to see the alluvial fan clearly
A) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tectonic_subsidence
B) The basic concept of the page is the definition of tectonic subsidence and the mechanisms and environments which it utilizes.
C) I would suggest that the images would be larger so they would be more visible so the reader is able to look at the figure in a glance compared to having to leave the article to view the image in a larger window.
D) The article should explain each type of environment (extensional, passive, ect), however, the article does a good job of keep the main ideas simple and organized.
E) As said earlier, the pictures are very informative in this article, they are just too small, they need to be enlarged for the reader to utilize them easily.
A) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggradation
B) The basic value of this page is to just give an explanation of what aggradation is.
C) The page could go into more depth such as environments or processes which cause the topic.
D) There should be more pictures available including photographs for the reader to view, however, the diagram is very useful for understanding.
E) The author should have gone into more depth about the topic, including processes, mechanisms, environments, ect, however, the main definition is very good.
2. Proposal
A)
Tectonic Influence on Alluvial Fans
I. What is an alluvial fan
a. definition
b.examples with pictures
II. What tectonic mechanisms influence alluvial fans
a.mechanism 1
b.mechanism 2
III. Processes
a. process 1
b.process 2
IV. Environments
a. list tectonic environments
b. climate environments
B) This page would be valuable for readers who visit alluvial fans and want to know f there are any tectonic influences on it and a specialist audience could use this page as a starting point for some research and could use the page as a starting point with links to other sources.
C)I intend to use the outline roughly as how I intend to structure the page. It would be sectioned off and have more detailed points under broader sections. The figure will include a process diagram that would illustrate a certain tectonic process and explain a result on the alluvial fan
