Will review tomorrow. JAGUAR  21:08, 25 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Sorry for the delay. I've been out enjoying the sun, so I'll finish this by tomorrow. JAGUAR  20:23, 26 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • " It stretches from Exmouth in East Devon to Studland Bay in Dorset" - link East Devon and Dorset
  • "a distance of 96 miles (155 kilometres)" - why is the normal conversion template not used?
  • "During the Triassic this area was a desert, while in the Jurassic" - missing "eras" at the end of Triassic and Jurassic? Or is this OK?
  • "The fossilized remains of the animals" - fossilised
  • "spanning the Mesozoic Era" - does era need to be capitalised?
  • " Chesil Beach is a fine example of a barrier beach" - "fine" is a bit informal. Try good
  • "Violent storms in 1824 and 1974" - would sound better as Violent storms occurred in 1824 and 1974
  • No dead links

Very well written and researched. I couldn't find many issues to bring up, so once they're all out of the way then this should pass.   JAGUAR  10:20, 27 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

I have made the alterations you suggest. It seems that Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous are periods rather than eras, and the names should be capitalised and seem to be widely used as nouns rather than adjectives. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:48, 27 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for addressing them. This is good to go now!   JAGUAR  15:05, 27 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
