White Deer Hole Creek[edit]

I am the main contributor to this article and would appreciate any comments, feedback, or suggestions on how to improve it. I will make brief articles to take care of the red links and need to update the watershed map, but thought I could start the peer review process and work on those minor issues at the same time. I am also aware that the semi-automated peer review javascript finds a problem with the units and a non-breaking space, and even know that the problem is just in the "Course" section of the article, but have been unable to find or fix the problem. I plan to submit this to WP:FAC when the peer review is done. Thanks in advance for your help, Ruhrfisch 15:00, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • About the nbsp, it got set off by 26ft in the URL for Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. Cheers, AZ t 15:55, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • If it is in the "Course" section, perhaps it is for the degrees, minutes and seconds symbols? Just a guess. Terri G 149.155.96.5 15:58, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thanks so much - I spent well over an hour and could not find the problem. I tried putting non-breaking spaces between the numbers and the degree, minute, and second symbols, but it made no difference so I took them back out when I did a final copyedit (chopped 3 kilobytes out).

      • For future reference, the script should now note specifically which phrase sets off the nbsp problem. (Try WP:BYCing if it doesn't) AZ t 18:19, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The lines on the map can be confusing. It looks like the county lines are blue like the creeks. This makes it confusing to look at. I know that the county lines are grey. Perhaps this color could be changed. Orange county line perhaps? Dincher 00:49, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks so much - I made them a darker shade of grey (here Image:White Deer Hole Creek Watershed Map.PNG). Is this better? I am trying to follow the Wikiproject Maps guidelines, so I stayed with grey instead of orange. Ruhrfisch 14:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • The colors show up much better on the large map than on the small map for the new version that is. The picture of the valley is a plus. It gives a picture of the size and beauty of the valley and shows the restoration of the forests. Dincher 20:03, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The topographic/3D map is another plus. add more info on Alvira and the Ordance depot and I think the article is ready for FA. Dincher 18:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks very much. I have added more information as requested (and eventually plan to make small articles on Alvira and the Susquehanna Ordnance Depot). I have also at least started all the articles to get rid of red links and done a (hopefully) thorough copyedit. I plan to submitthis to WP:FAC by Dec. 6, unless there are other concerns or suggections raised here before then. Thanks again to all who have helped with this peer review, Ruhrfisch 05:42, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
