Suggestions moving forward to Featured article review

This article is one of the best articles I've read in reviewing GA nominees, and I find it is mostly ready for FA review as it stands. --Tea with toast (talk) 17:52, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

A few minor changes might be helpful:

1. In the "Occurrences and production" section, there are photos of manganese ore and Psilomanganese (manganese ore); however, I could not find what distinguishes these two different ores in the text.
2. I find the third paragraph in "Occurrences and production" to be a bit confusing. Also, the term "ferromanganese" is first occurs there but the subsequent paragraph suggests that ferromangaese is produced, not mined. I would create a new paragraph (or expand the second paragraph) describing the different types of ore.

Further comments

1. The phrase "undergo a sort of resettlement" is used twice; once in the intro and the other in Geology. I recommend finding a different term that wouldn't cause repetition. I also went ahead an made a grammar fix. Codyorb (talk) 14:40, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
