I note that the article was created with the rationale "the details of a planetary ecosphere had not yet been centrally brought together under a primary topic page even though it is taught in schools around the world". The same editor added a long section at the top of Outline of Earth sciences#Earth's spheres that could be shown diagrammatically if suitable references are found. I recall that terms like hydrosphere and biosphere feature in introductory texts, but there are a few things I find unsatisfactory here, and would ask that WikiProject Environment or specialists in earth sciences check it over.
I don't think much needs deleting as such. Biosphere and ecosphere do seem to be distinct terms, but the use and usefulness of the latter needs to be better documented. -- Cedders tk 11:10, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
