lol, some poor soul is now wondering why his Meteorite ID chart is being flooded with traffic!

I'd like to see some analysis of the linked flowchart, or a least an explanation of the title text comment. Why does "Did you see it fall" have only an "yes" option, that leads to "not a meteorite" [[User:Zeimusu|Zeimusu]] ([[User talk:Zeimusu|talk]]) 12:10, 22 August 2016 (UTC) | I'd like to see some analysis of the linked flowchart, or a least an explanation of the title text comment.

: Because actually seeing a meteorite fall and recovering it is an incredibly rare event (690 times since 1900), but ''stories'' about how they saw a meteor fall and went out and found a rock in the middle of a crater are a dime-a-dozen. So if someone shows up with a rock they think is a meteorite, odds are they will say they saw it fall, but odds are it's not a meteorite. --[[Special:Contributions/162.158.214.231|162.158.214.231]] 14:26, 22 August 2016 (UTC) | : Because actually seeing a meteorite fall and recovering it is an incredibly rare event (690 times since 1900), but ''stories'' about how they saw a meteor fall and went out and found a rock in the middle of a crater are a dime-a-dozen.

I'm wondering if this is related to the recent claims in British newspapers (Warning, Daily Mail content [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3745346/Homeowner-makes-world-discovery-glowing-METEORITE-lands-garden-lights-cigarette-it.html Link] [[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.83|141.101.98.83]] 12:27, 22 August 2016 (UTC) | I'm wondering if this is related to the recent claims in British newspapers (Warning, Daily Mail content [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3745346/Homeowner-makes-world-discovery-glowing-METEORITE-lands-garden-lights-cigarette-it.html Link] [[Special:Contributions/141.101.98.83|141.101.98.83]] 12:27, 22 August 2016 (UTC) | ||

I just tried fixing it up FOUR TIMES, and got an edit conflict each time. The later ones didn't even change anything. I'd contribute, but not if this keeps happening.

:Sorry about that, but I hope my edits fixed this. There is now an extended explanation of the title text. I'm finished for now, so please improve where needed. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 14:52, 22 August 2016 (UTC) | :Sorry about that, but I hope my edits fixed this.
