Pinargözü Cave[edit]

  • ... that Pinargözü Cave, the longest cave in Turkey, is over 10 km long and still has not been fully surveyed...? Source: [1])
    • ALT1:... that ...? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
  • Comment: There are other sources not in Turkish to confirm the length and the fact that it isn't fully surveyed, although none that say both together. The cave's surveyed length is disputed - supposedly a French team says it's over 16 km, but the only source I have for that is the Turkish article above that immediately says the French are wrong about that - so I went with the conservative estimate the Turkish team stands by.

  • Article is new and long enough at 4,035 chars. It is neutral and cites sources inline. İt is ©-free and no close paraphrasing issues are reported by "Earwig's Copyvio Detector". Hook is well-formatted (I've bolded the article title), and its length is within limit. Its fact is cited inline. Well written. Good to go. CeeGee 05:19, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
