- Starting review. Zeete (talk) 12:49, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Zeete, I have noticed that the reference I have used is not accessible to everyone as it is a Google Books preview, also it does not mention a storm. Could I request that the reference for this DYK is changed to ref no.23 in the article (Orr, Robyn. 30 May 2016) and the words “following a storm” are removed from the hook? Do let me know if I should make this request via a different means. Many thanks Unexpectedlydian (talk) 13:28, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- I had no problem with the reference listed here. Ref 11 says "Early in 1996, after a winter of harsh storms", not a particular storm. Please update hook as you see fit and/or add alternate hooks, then I will finish the review, Thanks, Zeete (talk) 13:43, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you - I have amended the hook to make clear there were multiple storms. Unexpectedlydian (talk) 09:40, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- Review: New, promoted to GA, long enough (over 6,500 per DYK check), cited, neutral, Earwig reported Violation Unlikely (22.5%, due to quotation), QPQ not needed (1 previous credit), hook interesting, length checked ok, wording and citation issue, see below, picture looks good.
Article needs to agree with hook wording change and appropriate citations. Thanks, Zeete (talk) 13:10, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- I've altered the article to make it align with the hook and changed the reference. Hope that works. Unexpectedlydian (talk) 18:28, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- I was referring to the sentence in the lede that says "collapsed in 1996 following a storm", not the one in the body. Thanks, Zeete (talk) 19:05, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- Ah, got it. I've changed the lede now. Thank you Unexpectedlydian (talk) 19:09, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
