Chemistry[edit]

I'm not an expert on chemistry per se; if someone could help me out by refining my comparison between nickel and iron (especially given the whole valence/ionic radius thing), your help would be appreciated.Archaen sax 09:58, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article Content This article is relatively brief, consisting of a topic sentence followed by 3 paragraphs. The topic sentence does a good job at explaining the concept of compatibility as it relates to geochemistry, however, I noticed one of the Wiki links to the term "major element" no longer works. There were no citations embedded in the article, and the author only cited one online textbook that was published in 2005. The author did thoroughly include Wiki links for some terms and elements that a reader might be unfamiliar with. However, the overall content in this article seems to just skim the surface of what compatibility is. It would be helpful to add photos or figures to illustrate, for example, how compatibility of an element differs from incompatibility. In the last paragraph of the article, some of the sentence structures could be improved to be more concise.Christinaxlu (talk) 22:17, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Useful Sources I have cited below ten potentially useful sources that may help improve the content of this article. If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to let me know! Most of the articles are peer-reviewed and require a more in depth understanding of the concept of compatibility as it related to geochemistry, so if there are anymore reliable sources out there that provides a basic understanding and explanation of the concept, please link them below! Thanks so much!

Football Club?![edit]

I remember the era of the Geological Compatibility "Football Club", especially the Plutonian versus Neptunian playoffs, the final, as it didn't take 350,000,000 years to watch, was quite a short and very eventful match. For this reason, I took to watching English versus Australia test cricket, known as the Ashes test wicket series, a truly uneventful and lengthy game.

BTW, you have a typo, I don't know how to fix. 1.136.107.39 (talk) 07:22, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
