At the beginning of the Proterozoic Eon section, on page 4, there is an error in the capitalization of Snowball Earths. It is capitalized snowball Earths instead of Snowball Earths.
(I could be wrong though, as I am unsure of the exact details of the capitalization of these kinds of these, but since it has been capitalized Snowball Earth throughout the entire page, I believe that this should also be changed)

After re-reading the policy on edit requests, I appear to have made a mistake in my wording, so I would like to apologize.
Not sure where that diagram came from but why is it circular? I guess it looks kinda cool but I don't really know what it adds and it seems like it makes things a bit more confusing/implies something weird or misleading things about earth's history. Seems like a normal flat/straight timeline diagram would be better
