Impermeable prose. If these dynamic processes can be visualised rather than simply provided their professional labels, and if a footnote of explication is offered at the first appearance of terms that might not be immediately familiar to the general reader, this article will be friendlier to the non-specialist. --Wetman (talk) 13:19, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of added categories and template shuffling but no change to the text in four years. I've made some edits in hopes of rendering it more accessible. Please vet them.
When the normal reader sees "collision of the Colorado orogen and the Trans-Hudson orogen with the Archean craton produced strong structural overprinting", the ordinary reader asks "what is structural overprinting, strong or otherwise?"
When the normal reader sees "The Wyoming craton consists mainly of two gross rock units" the reder asks in what sense is gross being used?" Does it mean "broadly speaking" or "in large part"?
"imaging by the "Deep Probe" analysis". An explanatory phrase at least is needed: "imaging by the "Deep Probe" analysis, which is...."
"This tectonic grain, including the 2.62 Ga Oregon Trail structure..." What's that? There is no mention at Wikipedia of an "Oregon Trail geological structure" and googling "Oregion+Trail+structure" produces no useful hits. So "Oregon Trail structure" needs a phrase or so introducing it.
Intrude,a jargon term, is ambiguous here: " intrude crystalline rocks of the Wyoming province." What's intruded into what? Are crystalline rocks an intrusion or are they intruded upon?--Wetman (talk) 18:23, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
