Untitled[edit]

The intro is too technical. It needs to be more approachable for non-geologists.--Srleffler 04:40, 10 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I intended to add a schematic figure. Woodwalker 23:13, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The article needs more information, and needs to be structured better to help readers understand the topic. The intro could use some work in terms of laying out a general definition of what vergence is. Detailing some of the terms and processes surrounding the term could help. The end of the article also needs sourcing. Shopkins31 (talk) 03:54, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
