The
Climate section's text speaks of two glaciations (Sturtian and Marinoan) whereas the graphic shows 3 glaciations (Kaigas being the third), and the Sturtian dates disagree (720 to 700 million years ago in the graphic, 750 to 700 million years ago in the text, which thus overlaps the Kaigas in the

Hi
Tlhslobus! Thank you for bringing attention to this problem. I moved the Kaigas glaciation to the notes. According to the sources I could find it is a really enigmatic glaciation. Duration and global extent are still very uncertain. It also seems that the duration that was given in the template

The youngest, Gaskiers has been placed in the
Ediacarian. They wanted the two biggest and most important glaciations to constitute the Cryogenian, so they proposed a new GSSP for the base of the Cryogenian to be placed between the end of the Kaigas and the beginning of the Sturtian. Including the

I think we need a massive rewrite of this article: It's one of the most layman-unfriendly articles I've seen, not only failing to explain terms, but often using an obscure geological term where a perfectly good common-language term is available, such as use of Ma for dates, "tillage" for glacial
399:- There is a table with a time-scale. I'm guessing they are terms used locally to define when those formations where depositied. The younger Marinoan event occured at the end of the Cyrogenian, by definition, as the overlying Nuccaleena formation dolomite defines the start of the Edicaran.
737:
Thanks for sorting this but there is still a problem which I do not understand. There is now a duplicate references heading on the right. (I have moved entries in references which belonged in further reading but this did not make any difference.)
313:
The carbon analysis here isn't C-14 decay, actually, it's calculating the concentrations of stable C-13 in sediments. The more carbon that's locked away in sediments means that there's fewer greenhouse gases left to warm the atmosphere.
713:
I've fixed it by splitting the intro into the intro and a second section and forcing a table of contents in between. I called it "ratification" because that was the first key word I saw, so there is probably something better to call
921:
Additional remark: "The
Sturtian glaciation persisted from 750 to 700 million years ago." The graph on the right hand side shows the Sturtian lasting from 720 to 660 million years ago. I detect a contradiction there.
961:
Kaigas (poorly constrained to between 770 and 735 Ma) Sturtian (well constrained to c. 715 - 680 Ma) Marinoan (well constrained to 660 - c. 635 Ma) Gaskiers (extremely well constrained to c. 585 - c. 582 Ma)
589:
And shouldnt the end be at the start of the
Ediacaran at ~635 Ma rather than 630? Although there is no exact dating on the Australian succession it is more correct to say 635 than 630 Ma. I will change it.
448:
I have made a pass over both paragraphs. I think the geological terms are fine since it's an article on geology, but have tried to give some contextual cues and to streamline the sentence structure. --

there is no information about the copyright of the map. Do a google image search and see if you can find where this came from. The chances are that we will need a redrawn map so as to be free.

previously was not the duration of the glaciation, but the estimated time interval in which the glaciation is thought to have happened. I will try to fix the text as soon as possible. --
839:
Not an expert on the subject but there is no doubt that these ice ages happened. I think the degree of glaciation is controversial. Maybe the wording should be changed to this. --
