Please specify in both articles how the crabs helped the plants do that. The ref doesn't make it clear, actually. -- Rcej (Robert) – talk 07:19, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- You were so quick off the mark in reviewing this nomination that I was still working on adding the fact to the second article. Is it OK now? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:34, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
Double hooks verified online, articles ready, QPQ good, image good; character count of the two articles confirmed respectively to be 2854 and 2075 by DYKcheck! -- Rcej (Robert) – talk 07:57, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- I was surprised to find basic issues with with second QPQ supplied; I had to pull the approved hook from prep because it was 245 characters (and the approved ALTs all had issues as well). Under the circumstances, I think a different QPQ review should be submitted (or, if you want to wait for a new hook to be devised so it can be reviewed, you can stick with this one).

- I must admit I didn't consider the length of the hooks. I think your action somewhat over-zealous when you only needed to trim one of the hooks a bit or change the wording to "planned" if that was the hook promoted. And I thought you would be well aware that I review many more nominations than I need for QPQs. Nevertheless, I have done another one. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:50, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- QPQ now satisfied; the rest per Robert's original review. I obviously disagree with being "overzealous": when all three approved hooks have significant issues, it's better to pull than do major surgery on them on the fly. The surgery wasn't done afterward, when more leisure was available, which tells its own story. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:18, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
