  • . The article is new (moved to article place on 26 June) and long enough. It is interesting and cites sources with inline citation. No close paraphrasing, copyvio was detected. Hook is interesting and verified by an inline citation. My concern is that the date is not a fact, but only one of the multiple estimations (if my understanding is correct) and it is verified by a source different from the source which verifies the main "message" of the hook (=the lake was formed by the eruption). I suggest the date should be deleted. Borsoka (talk) 04:21, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
    @Borsoka: I've proposed an ALT hook.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:56, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Sorry, I am not an expert in the field of geology. For me, the article does not say that the eruption that formed the lake ocurred in the Holocene. Borsoka (talk) 12:32, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
    Now it does say, take note that Mongol place names have variable spelling.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 12:51, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
  • . Thank you. My concerns were addressed. ALT1 is OK. Picture is also fine and properly tagged. Borsoka (talk) 12:59, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
