Hello Hongcheng Guo,

let me introduce myself, Graeme Bartlett as an on-line assistant to your Wikipedia work. I am here to help you with the Wikipedia technical and social world. You can ask me questions or chat to me on my talk page at User talk:Graeme Bartlett, or you can email me by using this page: Special:EmailUser/Graeme Bartlett. I will be looking at your work on Wikipedia to see what I can suggest to you. Once your page goes live I will see if I can nominate it for the WP:Did you know to get it listed on the front page. I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 23:48, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

Hello Hongcheng, Sultan Shafei (Peer Review)

You have a very nice article! Well structured and written in a simple and understandable way even for non-geology major. I understand that it is a first draft, but there are some small details that could help your article. First, I noticed that figure 2 is missing. Also, It would be better if your provided the geological times (eras) for the tectonic origin and evolution. In addition, some phrases such as the "sinistral slip" and "catagenetic" do not have a wikipedia page, so take the brackets off or provide a simple explanation if possible. Lastly, which is just a suggestion you could add figure 4 in the same sedimentation section since you talk about it in that section. Again, nice article! Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sshafe2 (talk • contribs) 07:31, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Don's Edits

Main Central Thrust

Needs expansion, This is the main topic of your section, so the first section should have all the major points covered. Think like the reader, most of them want to get in, get the info, and get out. Figure 1 is good, needs to be a bit bigger. Figure 2 needs to be notably larger before it is useful, I cant really read the map, so it doesnt help me.

Geologic Background

This section is great. Clean, simple, delivers good info. If anything I would expand by adding some info about how we differentiate these sections geologically. your descriptions are great in abstract, but how would a person standing in the himalayas tell the difference?

Kinematic Models

Again, good section, i would make the figure just a touch larger

Various Definitions of the MCT

Difficulties

No comment, well done

Classical definitions

great info, needs some formatting though, it is a very imposing wall of text, break it up a bit

Re-defining

Great section

Timing of the MCT

Figure needs to be larger to be helpful. Include more discussion.

General

dont forget to link to other wikipedia articles(e.g. potatoes), it will help clear up some of the geological terms you use. The article feels very bottom heavy. You go into great detail in the later sections, but lack the initial section that compresses it simply and succinctly. Try to beef up the surrounding sections, or spread out the info because right now "defining the MCT" is pretty much your whole article

DYK on Main Central Thrust

HI. I saw your entry on the DYK for Main Central Thrust, but I'm not happy with the article in its current form and I think it really needs some work. I'm happy to help with this, but not being a geologist, my edits will have to be limited to copyedits, and there are still a number of technical issues that need to be worked out.

To start with, what exactly is the Main Central Thrust? The current definition is "north-dipping and NW—SE strike thrust faults", which is utterly meaningless to me, and I suspect, most readers of the DYK hook. The first part of the body seems to suggest that it is one of three such faults, but then names four of them, which is also very confusing.

We then move to the first chart, which claims that the "Main Central Thrust is indicated by solid line and triangles." If I'm reading it correctly, I believe the definition for the lead and hook should be something more along the lines of "The Main Central Thrust is a major fault line running along the southern side of the Himalaya mountain belt." Is that correct?

The second graphic appears to suggest that an alternate definition might be "The Main Central Thrust is a major fault line running along the southern side of the Himalaya mountain belt, separating the High Himalaya on the north from the Lesser Himalaya to the south."

Generally there is far too much jargon in this article and little of it is explained.
