Thank you, this is helpful.

Now for another question:
Is the owner of a page, NASA in that particular case, able to "clean up", so to speak, his page, and delete anything he/she does not want associated with him/her?

For instance, if I had a Facebook page I would not want to see posts by some of our most famous crack-pots tacked on it. Could I erase them and still have a public page? I suppose my question boils down to: How much control does one have over a Facebook page?

Hi Anne and List,

Any Facebook page (personal or institutional) that is set on "public"
is visible to the entire world (including most search engines).
Anyone can view a public FB page, whether that person is a FB member
or not.  However, if a privacy settings of that page are set to
"friends only", then only a FB member who is also a "friend" can see
that page or photo.

That is why NASA's page is visible to anyone, member or not.

Ruben's photos were likely set to "friends only" and therefore you
would need to be both a FB member and on Ruben's approved list of
"friends".  Such links will appear broken or blocked if clicked by a
non-member.

Anne, you can filter out the trash by looking for a link near the top
of the postings section on the NASA page (or any institutional page).
You will see a little drop-down link with the options of "see posts by
page" and "see posts by everyone" (exact syntax may vary slightly).
Click on "see posts by page" and you will see the official posts by
page administrators.  Otherwise, you see posts by every Tom, Dick, and
Harry - which greatly increases the noise to signal ratio.

Best regards,

MikeG

I cannot see Ruben's page either. And here is what I don't understand:

A few weeks ago someone posted a link to NASA's Facebook page, I was
glad of that because I could finally look at a professionally done and
monitored page and see what Facebook could really be like when well
done. Well, I looked at NASA's page at length, and I was very
disappointed by the amount of garbage posted there (idiotic comments,
crazy theories, and more), but at least I could read it. And I can
also
read Meteorite-Exchange's page (much cleaner, how do you do that
Paul?).

But I cannot read Ruben's page. Why not?

Ruben,
Those who cannot see it may not be FB friends with you. You can set
permissions for everyone.

Hi all,

Not sure why some of you can't see this.....   Maybe someone can let
me know what I did wrong?

Hi all,

Dr Garvie and myself just returned from teaching meteorite basics to
a
room full of Rock Hounds.

Hopefully (since my settings are public) everyone will be able to
see this.

Here's a link to my photos on FB

BTW - Feel free to friend me as I'll be posting lots of different
meteorite related photos and articles in the future.
