Mineral physics

Jasperox, welcome to Wikipedia. Your revised figures for pressure and temperature in Mineral physics may be more up-to-date than the ones you replaced, but they are not the numbers supported by the citation. If you can find a citation for the new numbers, feel free to put them in! RockMagnetist (talk) 18:26, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi and thanks for the message and correction. I'm new to this and did not realize that the citations were that tight. Maybe you can help. At this moment, I have an experiment up at 24 GPa and 2200 C to make MgSiO3 perovskite and thought that the limits here were a bit low. I have some useful citations to add but am not sure I am clear on the format for in-line citations. I'll have a go at it and maybe you can help with the format.

I also have some photos I can add (I took them and am happy to release copyright).— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jasperox (talk • contribs) 07:43 May 19 2012

The citations are fine. It's generally best to add DOIs so people can follow a link to the abstract; and I like using templates like {{cite journal}} so all the citations have the same formatting. You might save some time if you use a tool in the editor that allows you to search a DOI and automatically enter the information (after which you generally have to tweak the entries a bit). For images I recommend logging into Wikimedia Commons and using the tools it provides.

I have also taken the liberty of editing your comments to show you how talk page comments should look. Reponses are indented using the colon (note my response has a double indent). And you should always sign your message using four tildes (~~~~). RockMagnetist (talk) 15:35, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Image

I just added an image (my own) to coesite page. I hope I have done this correctly. Any comments? Jasperox (talk) 12:17, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Looks good - I moved it into the infobox. Vsmith (talk) 12:27, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. I tried to put it there but the caption did not come through. It looks good now! Jasperox (talk) 13:38, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Clinohumite

I added a crystal structure drawing and some inline references and text on the structure Jasperox (talk) 14:53, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

Ringwoodite

Added image of synthetic crystal and revised text and rearranged references Jasperox (talk) 14:53, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

Suggestions ... or whatever :)

I've noticed that you have been using the html <i>...</i> to italicize. The wikiway is just to place the content between double quotes sample ''here'' to illustrate produces: sample here to illustrate. Same result and easier once you're used to it.

I've also removed the categories from your sandbox to keep it from appearing in the category listing. We should only add the categories to the finished product in mainspace and not in our workspace - it may attract others to our work in progress before we're ready. Vsmith (talk) 00:10, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Again, thank you for some useful advice. The wikiway will sure make the space group symbols easier. I was using old html. Jasperox (talk) 06:18, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

Notification of automated file description generation

Your upload of File:Clinohumite-structure.jpg or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.

This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!
