This article seems to have a good coverage, and has potential to be a Good Article. GB 10:53, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Tone - this is supposed to be easy to understand
As John McEnroe might have said "good article candidate, you cannot be serious!" Wikipedia is supposed to be a encylopaedia understandable by the man on the street not a magazine for geology enthusiasts. What on earth do terms like "Syn-depositional" and "Basal Permian breccias" mean? - they're not even wikilinked to give an explanation and the following sentence would be totally incomprehensible to anyone but a geology enthusiast
Upward fining facies successions within the Members are characterised by planar laminated, ripple-bedded and cross-bedded sandstones with abundant intraformational rip-up clasts, exotic clasts and water escape structures
Come on guys, something we can all understand please! Richerman (talk) 00:40, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

- I suppose any terms that can't be wikilinked would need to be explained in the article - I know you can do it ;-) Incidentally, as you clearly know what you're talking about when it come to geology, could you have a look at the Geology section in the River Irwell article? I've written a short section from general stuff I found in non-specialist books but some of that I had to rewrite because even I could see it was wrong. I was trying to find a reference for a description of Manchester Marl when I came across this article. Richerman (talk) 10:06, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
