: I have never heard of that. I guess it is a supercontinent comprised of modern-day [[Eurasia]] and [[Oceania]] combined.

Query

hi

Someone had put Manchester as a super continent obviously a piece of vandalism I have changed this to oceania whic I believe to be true however could do with some verification on this and the age in MYA as Im no expert and do not have time to research —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.152.217.252 (talk) 11:40, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the speculative future stuff. If it is to be replaced, it must be supported by WP:reliable sources. Vsmith (talk) 01:58, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How can Gondwana have been around from 510-180mya when Pangaea was around from 300-200mya? This is saying that Gondwana formed before Pangaea. Gondwana and Laurasia formed from the break up of Pangaea. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.187.50 (talk) 17:04, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ocean-Eurasia

What is this? Do we have any source for this 'supercontinent'? 113.111.11.226 (talk) 06:04, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have never heard of that. I guess it is a supercontinent comprised of modern-day Eurasia and Oceania combined. 2001:8003:9008:1301:AD8D:2348:2B9E:213C (talk) 12:38, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Article Improvement or Deletion is Needed

No sources. I have no reason to view this as credible. Improvement by citing sources would be best. If that does not happen, this article should be deleted. RobertLovesPi (talk) 17:37, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I do agree. The article is sloopy and need way much work to be presentable. -Lappspira (talk) 17:43, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The assignment of each entry in the lists to "major" supercontinent or "minor" supercontinent without citing any source references looks like probable original research, (which is not allowed on Wikipedia). Therefore, I have put a "possible original research" template at the top of the article. GeoWriter (talk) 19:07, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Future supercontinents

@ZaperaWiki44: While I think this cleanup is a good idea, I would support keeping Amasia, Pangea Ultima and Novopangea separate. These are actual different concepts (with scientific referecnes) that are not synonymous. (Pangea Ultima suggests clousre of the Atlantic, Novopangea of the Pacific, and Amasia of the Arctic ocean.) --MGChecker (talk) 16:20, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question

What was the name of the supercontinent comprised of the Americas and Afro-Eurasia which were connected by Beringia approx. 15,000 years ago? 2001:8003:9008:1301:AD8D:2348:2B9E:213C (talk) 12:32, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
