Comments[edit]

I don't think mathematical formulas can be copyrighted so I believe the page should stand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jado818 (talk • contribs)

I think you are broadly right regarding the copyright of actual raw formulae (although I am sure there are some exceptions) however the problem with this article is that it is not just an expression of the formula. It is the extra words/sentences and the context within which the formula is described which is the problem being as it has obviously been copy and pasted from another website which is copyright to Arizona Board of Regents. nancy 09:37, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Evaluation Comment: Content[edit]

This article helped explaining the origin of Global Meteoric waterline, displaying an empirical equation and briefly addressing the application for it. A few more aspects can be considered to further build this article: 1. when refers to "hydrogen and oxygen isotopes", it did not refer to the specific isotope type for the two elements, which can be further linked to other Wikipedia articles. 2. the explanation of the theoretical bases for this topic- kinetic fractionation is jargonic for the public to understand. 3. the description about Craig's assertion needs to be paraphrased, and further explained in a non-specialist perspective. 4. the applications of this topic in environmental studies can be expanded. 5. images can be added to help explain the theoretical bases for hydrogen and oxygen isotopic fractionation and applications of this topic .
