will do. NoahTalk 19:20, 2 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

I haven't forgotten about this, just ran into some unexpected issues that kept me busy. NoahTalk 11:07, 7 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Lead
  • on the island on Bornholm, Denmark the second on should be of.
  • Pliensbachian-Late Toarcian age links for these.
  • In fact the Sorthat Formation was included on most of 80s-90s studies as the lowermost part of the Bagå Formation assume it's 1980s and 1990s? That should be specified.
  • Vulcanism assuming this was meant to be volcanism?
Prose
  • Why are certain non-proper nouns such as formation and island capitalized? This appears to be a major issue throughout the article.
  • Latter the Bagå Formation was limited This doesn't make sense?
  • Convert metric to US-based units
  • The large Toarcian–Bajocian deltaic systems locally where the shoreline influenced by the vicinity between brackish to freshwater and continental biofacies Missing something?
  • The North German Basin shows that on approximately 14.4 m.a on should be around since it isn't an exact date. I would rather you write out what m.a means since it is only used once and isn't explained elsewhere in the article.
  • What does isp. mean? it should be written in full for the first usage and then abbreviated thereafter.
  • Recommend adding alt text to images.
  • The Bifrons to Levesquei Zone in the coeval units at the east and west of Prignitz a sandy coastal-deltaic succession was replaced by laminated shales with pelagic marine fauna Feels like the sentence is jumbled.
  • what contributed to retrogradational stratal pattern architectures What should be which
  • On the Sorthat Formation is present a transition from upper to lower shoreface environments This is also jumbled.
  • In the Younger Levesquei subzone delta plain Comma after this phrase.
  • Slashes should not be used between two words per MOS:SLASH as it doesn't show how two things are related.
  • analisis misspelling.
  • Later a rise in the sea level is reported due to the increase of Acritarchs and Tasmanites, where a lagoon succession overlain by the fill of a coastal lake that developed into a paleosol verb tense.
  • and the location become again a crevasse delta and fill of an abandoned fluvial channel this is jumbled.
  • suggest he transition to crevasse deltas formed by the amalgamation of crevasse splay deposits and infill of crevasse channels typo and missing some wording.
  • Some sand beds originated probably on the granite horst better as probably originated.
  • Korsodde Section overlies the fine-grained sandstones of the Hasle Formation Add "The" to the beginning.
  • This section of the formation started as a derived of sand units deposited in fluvial channels, with abundant carbonaceous matter was probably derived this looks clanky
  • Is overlaid by the intercalation of crevasse delta deposits and lacustrine-brackish flooding surfaces What is?
  • O several coal seams there were found several Biomolecules ?
  • being most of them found associated to sandy channel fills and on heavily rooted crevasse and lake deposits in shallow inter-fluvial areas Clanky
  • On the Toarcian at Bornholm strata indicates a warm, humid climate Don't think on is appropriate here. There needs to be a comma after climate.
  • that implies the influence of greater transportation energies imply
  • loads of duplicate links.
Unfortunately, I am going to be quick failing this nomination due to Grammatical issues as I haven't even scratched the surface. There are numerous occurrences of subject-verb agreement issues, tense issues, misspellings, missing words, etc.. I recommend a thorough copyediting before nominating for GAN again. Excellent work on sourcing though. NoahTalk 23:50, 10 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Copyediting

I'd like to let everyone know that I'll be taking up the task of checking and rewriting this article on the front of spelling and grammar. Cheers, -TimTheDragonRider (talk) 18:48, 11 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, @TimTheDragonRider: I didn't see your note. I've been copyediting (it's been in the 'Bio in need of CE' queue for a long time). Didn't mean to step on any toes.
