Great Salt Lake[edit]

This passed to GA status a few weeks ago, with a few minor tweaks made so it could pass. As very few people currently work on this article, I feel it is absolutely necessary to get as much outside assessment as possible. I have created a to-do list of things I feel we need to add to the article (see Talk:Great Salt Lake), but as far as actual improvements go, I really need others to help me see where and how to improve. All feedback is welcome. --Lethargy 22:55, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't read through the whole thing, but I have a few recommendations. You should mention which rivers flow into it in the intro. The bolding of "America's Dead Sea" is a bit jarring. The addition of maps would be beneficial, showing for instance the feeder rivers and where the mountains/suburbs/other landmarks are. Remove the "Miscellanea" section and move its information into other sections. My two cents, Fang Aili talk 16:43, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for responding to the request. I agree with removing the miscellanea section, but I am not sure where its information belongs, any ideas? I'm not sure if we can use this map or not, because I don't know if it is copyright or not. As for unbolding America's Dead Sea and adding the tributaries to the lead, I think I'd have to agree with you. Again, thank you. --Lethargy 20:00, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That map is from the USGS, so it should be safe to use. bob rulz 22:56, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If I can remember how to upload files, I'll take a stab at it later, unless someone else wants to take care of it. But where in the article is the best place for it? --Lethargy 20:45, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Try the hydrology section, mainly because there's nothing else there at the moment. bob rulz 00:37, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Done. --Lethargy 01:30, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
