[edit] Fossils

There should be some clarification of the fossils section. that i am aware there have not been any insects found associated with the Columbia basin deposits. Could someone verify which sources are use for this statement Kevmin 22:24, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

I don't see the relation between the Columbia River Plateau and the Interior Plateau. I have lived in Washington all of my life and am actively interested in the geology of the state, but i have not hear of the Columbia plateau being considered part of the Interior Plateau of British Columbia. I would recommend against merging these articles. Kevmin 03:46, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree and removed the template. --mav 00:40, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Did you read the article? It's mostly about the Columbia River Plateau. It's an orphaned fragment, and should be merged. heqs 17:29, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree that it is a fragment. It should be expanded into a full article. I do not agree that it should be merged with the Interior plateau. The Columbia Plateau is of totally different origins. Do you have references for the inclusion of the CRP into the IP?Kevmin 23:12, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

All I'm saying is the relevant content from History of the Interior Plateau, not Interior Plateau, should be merged into this article. heqs 07:48, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Ahh, I understand. I thought that the proposal was to merge all three articles, my mistake. Yes the relative content from the "history" page should be merged to this and other aprop. pages and it should be made a redirect to the "interior Plateau" page. I would suggest a small explanation placed with the merge notices would have helped to prevent misunderstanding. Kevmin 18:04, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
