Melting/boiling/sublimation

Somewhat confusing. Are we to assume diamond melts at 3550, but the resulting liquid carbon immediately resolidifies as graphite and then sublimes at 3800? Better stated explicitly if so.

Also, all but one of the temperature references in the article are in C, the other in K. Peter Jackson 10:06, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
