Talk:Fossil sorting by the global flood
From RationalWiki
I think I get what this is talking about but the title is very confusing.

- Yeah - it needs a title that makes more sense by itself. And at the end of the day, who's going to type 'Fossils sorted by a comb...' into the search bar? EddyP Great King! Disaster! 22:07, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

- Ah, that explains the formatting! I thought it looked sorta familiar.

- "Fossil stratification" or something of that nature with this title as a redirect? The only "factor" which "sorts" fossils is when they died. Which is a question of what strata they are in. --BobSpring is sprung! 22:23, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
- Should we de-link some of the things that probably won't ever get a page then? Aboriginal Noise What the ... 01:16, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- Yes.

- Done. Although taking a look at some of those links, it's a big area that needs an article. This would be a good branching/starting point for that but it needs an RW style treatment rather than EvoWiki treatment. Of course, the two projects are now somewhat entwined and we haven't yet figured out how to deal with that.

- Nice job... now it needs a title. I can't
be arsed tothink of something appropriate.

- The title should be: "Fossils sorted by the flood". And the article says why not.--BobSpring is sprung! 17:10, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
- Although we now need to head to EvoWiki and port the entire lot of articles. That'll be quite a headache.

- And I expect that porting will be only the smallest part of the task. I've just imported some articles into TP and I find that I spend a lot more time re-editing them than moving them.--BobSpring is sprung! 22:11, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
