Hi! Will get to this in a few days. Sainsf <^>Feel at home 10:49, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

[edit]
  • Ensure that all the facts of the lead also find mention in the main text.
  • All of the facts that can be appropriately stated in the body are.
  • I would recommend adding notes or brief explanations for terms like Migratory Fishery Coldwater Fishery, a Warmwater Fishery and a Trout Stocking Fishery.
  • Done.
  • It is said to show "some degraded conditions" By some specific authority?
  • By the reference.
  • not considered to be impaired Another note on "impaired waterbody" please.
  • See the Abrahams Creek GA review.
  • Pennsylvania Route 309 should be linked in the lead
  • Done.
  • I generally recommend linking in the lead as well as the main text; follow what you prefer, though.
  • There already are some?

Hydrology

[edit]
  • It has been described as showing "some degraded conditions" Please add the authority that puts it so.
  • It's the reference itself.
  • The "cubic feet/second" and "milli/mcrograms per liter" measurements need convert templates.
  • Done.
  • This value was historically somewhat higher Do you have any information on why this was so?
  • I don't.
  • What do you mean by "were once measured to be"? How old are these values?
  • No, it means that it was measured one time, as opposed to multiple times.

Geography, geology, and climate

[edit]
  • "Mouth should have been linked at first mention, under "Course".
  • It's already linked in the infobox.
  • Can gradient be linked?
  • Done.
  • "Pressure conduit" is a redlink as of now, can you add a note explaining it?
  • Linked.
  • The "million gallons per day" need convert templates.
  • How? I'm not sure conversion templates work on words.
  • Are "lake", "swamp", "pond", "reservoir", "flooding" not too common to be linked?
  • Removed one or two.
  • "cubic feet per second" measurements need to be converted
  • Done.

Biology

[edit]
  • per 100 milliliters Convert
  • Non-metric units are pretty much never used for these kinds of things.
  • found to be the poorest habitat For aquatic life? Mention clearly.
  • In general, I would assume.
  • poor epifaunal substrate, low instream cover What do these terms mean?
  • Eipfaunal is the only unusual word, and that's linked now.
  • The borough of Dallas has plans As of when?
  • Who knows. Probably they still do, which would make saying "as of" inappropriate.
  • Dupicate links: Pennsylvania Route 309, forested ("Watershed")
  • Removed forested, 309 should be okay since the other links are in different sections.

That should be all. A nice article! Sainsf <^>Feel at home 13:32, 31 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
