Silverpit crater[edit]

I've been working on this article about the UK's only known impact crater over the last 6 weeks or so. It might be a little short compared to many featured articles (it would probably fit in The Cantos about 30 times over...), but I think it's comprehensive, and an interesting subject, so I thought I would nominate it for featured status and see what everyone thinks. It's previously been through peer review, see its entry there. Worldtraveller 15:17, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Support. Looking good. Need to clean up some spelling and unit issues: tons vs tonnes both used and miles vs km both used. -Vsmith 16:47, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I went ahead and fixed the problems I saw plus a bit of copyedit. Hope I didn't mess anything up :-). Vsmith 17:24, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Thanks very much for copyediting! I've just slightly altered one number which you converted from tons to kg - I'd originally converted to tonnes from the kg quoted in the reference, but had been slapdash about the difference between tons and tonnes. It's definitely the correct value in kg now! Worldtraveller 18:04, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
