Coorabulka

[edit]
  • ... that the Coorabulka station in Australia lost 4,000 square miles (10,360 km2) of grazing lands during a rat plague in 1940?

  • Article is new, long enough, has inline citations throughout. The sentence containing the hook doesn't have a citation. The reference for the hook seems to be #17, and if I've read it correctly (the number is rather faint), it says 4000 square miles rather than 1000. Could you check that? Also, has QPQ been done?

  • Yes you were right, it was 4000sqmi, and a second reference agrees with this figure. I had reviewed a half dozen or so articles a few weeks ago, but I'll go through a couple more and add them in. Hughesdarren (talk) 09:05, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
  • QPQ done. Good to go! NinaGreen (talk) 19:45, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
