In recent years, in some papers and manuscripts published in and submitted to the Journal of Palaeogeography
 (Chinese Edition and English Edition), the authors named the rocks or rock types as "microfacies" or "lithofacies",
 named the microfeatures in thin-sections under microscope as "microfacies", and named the macrofeatures of rocks
 as "macrofacies". I wrote two short papers "Words of the Editor-in-Chief -- Rocks are not microfacies" (Feng, Journal
 of Palaeogeography 19(5):II 2017) and "Words of the Editor-in-Chief -- Rocks are not lithofacies" (Feng, Journal of
 Palaeogeography 20(3):452-452, 2018) which were in Chinese and published in the Journal of Palaeogeography
 (Chinese Edition).However, they did not attract much attention of readers in China and outside China.
