Also the page might benefit from the addition of ecological significance section for this topic. Njppatel 18:26, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


Looks great, i would suggest under the microorganisms involved you add some specific example of organisms involved in geomicrobiologyNjppatel 18:23, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


I would suggest to put the link to the existing microbe page in wiki, for example Pseudomonas putida. Tantayotai 00:38, 13 March 2008 (UTC)


You don't need to geomicrobiology methods section because those methods are common to all the sections in the wiki, unless you can justify some very specific methods for geomicrobiology itself. Kate Scow


I went ahead and deleted this section.Calgilbert 19:09, 12 March 2008 (UTC)


Also I don't know that the category "geomicrobiology habitats" will work well in your section unless you want to do some special environments like hot springs or volcanic soils. Kate Scow

I would suggest organizing the category process by the different elements: e.g. iron, manganese, mercury, selenium sulfur (you don't have to go too far with this, just focus on main ones)

You might want to maintain that type of organization then when you talk about specific organisms OR you can have the organisms as a subcategory under each element. Kate Scow


IMPORTANT NOTE ON ADDING COMMENTS TO DISCUSSION PAGE

  • Add new comments to the TOP of the discussion page, so that we have newest comments first.
  • After your comment, type four tilde marks ( ~~~~ ). This displays the time and your user name, so that we can tell who left the comment and when.
  • At the end of your comment, type four hyphens "----" to create a line to separate your comment from the next commentator.
  • Make a note on this page below the comment after you've addressed it. Add the ( ~~~~ ) after your note so we know who addressed the comment. Your note could look something like .. "Good idea, we fixed it.Irina C 23:05, 6 March 2008 (UTC)" or "I don't think we need to do this because.. Irina C 23:05, 6 March 2008 (UTC)"

Good start - did you look around to see if any microbes that are important to different geomicrobiology processes have pages already?
