User:UBeR/glaciation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of links to articles on Wikipedia that deal with (relatively recent) glaciation (e.g. Quaternary onward). The goal here is to organize the links in such a way to examine how the current articles are set up on Wikipedia relative to each other. This should be helpful in organizing the content in the articles so that it makes sense to the reader (i.e. at the macro level, understanding the sequence of events) and so that the articles avoid overlapping and don't get too redundant.

Add if you know of additional, relevant articles. Change if I made a mistake.
