Hello I am Jeremy Paramore and I'm sure iv got a big enigma 💎 can u help me please

Wikification

[edit]
There are a lot of errors and omissions in the text that stand to be corrected. The approach to this page should be systematic, i.e., wikified like the pages dedicated to gemstones species. I am an editor for The Gemology Project which is a "wiki." It can be accessed through http://www.GemologyOnline..com There are other gemologists here who probably don't know about this page yet. I will try to pass the word. Good work on a good start here! T.E. Goodwin 22:47, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • The Wikipedia article "Diamond Simulant" is very well written in my opinion and contains a lot of important information that can be incorporated into this article. Would that be considered "plagiarism" here or just plain redundancy? T.E. Goodwin 10:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I listed my other alma mater, Santiago Canyon College, with their Department of Gemology as a public educational and accredited (!) resource. T.E. Goodwin 00:46, 13
  • I think that GIA London and GIA should be reversed. GIA, Carlsbad, is after all the headquarters not the London campus. Right? T.E. Goodwin 01:19, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Identification by Magnification

[edit]

I added this today, since the article has been discussing magnification. This section should concern the use of loupes and microscopes in gem identification and the separation of laboratory-created gemstones from their natural counterparts. Also, a sub-section should address the use of magnification to determine color treatment by analysis of heat-altered inclusions. Go for it! T.E. Goodwin 00:02, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Identification by Spectroscopy

[edit]

The selective absorption and transmission of certain wavelengths of light through a material has little to do with refraction of white light within the material itself. I find the article misleading on that point. Does anyone else? Benjamander (talk) 22:20, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GemologyGemmology – The word comes from the Latin word "gemma", plus the suffix "-ology". Such words should be based on Latin or (better) Greek, not on an English word like "gem". Both words are in Wiktionary, but with a more complete entry for the spelling with two m's. Eric Kvaalen (talk) 07:54, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
