Hi! Will get to this in a few days. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 10:49, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Lead

• Ensure that all the facts of the lead also find mention in the main text.

• All of the facts that can be appropriately stated in the body are.

• Thanks, I needed to ensure this. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 10:14, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

• I would recommend adding notes or brief explanations for terms like Migratory Fishery Coldwater Fishery, a Warmwater Fishery and a Trout Stocking Fishery.

• Done.

• It is said to show "some degraded conditions" By some specific authority?

• By the reference.

• not considered to be impaired Another note on "impaired waterbody" please.

• See the Abrahams Creek GA review.

• Pennsylvania Route 309 should be linked in the lead

• Done.

• I generally recommend linking in the lead as well as the main text; follow what you prefer, though.

• There already are some?

• I did not check it seriously, just a note. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 10:14, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Hydrology

• It has been described as showing "some degraded conditions" Please add the authority that puts it so.

• It's the reference itself.

• The "cubic feet/second" and "milli/mcrograms per liter" measurements need convert templates.

• Done.

• This value was historically somewhat higher Do you have any information on why this was so?

• I don't.

• What do you mean by "were once measured to be"? How old are these values?

• No, it means that it was measured one time, as opposed to multiple times.

Geography, geology, and climate

• "Mouth should have been linked at first mention, under "Course".

• It's already linked in the infobox.

• I prefer a link in the main text as well, when I say first mention I do not consider the infobox... Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 13:30, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

• Whyever not? --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 12:32, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

• Alright, we need not have the link if you don't wish to have it. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:45, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

• @Sainsf: So this can be passed now? --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 12:52, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

• Can gradient be linked?

• Done.

• "Pressure conduit" is a redlink as of now, can you add a note explaining it?

• Linked.

• The "million gallons per day" need convert templates.

• How? I'm not sure conversion templates work on words.

• I see, it would lead to fearsome figures. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 10:17, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

• Are "lake", "swamp", "pond", "reservoir", "flooding" not too common to be linked?

• Removed one or two.

• "cubic feet per second" measurements need to be converted

• Done.

Biology

• per 100 milliliters Convert

• Non-metric units are pretty much never used for these kinds of things.

• I am not adamant on this, but should we not have a template here for the sake of consistency with all those we have included earlier? Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 10:26, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

• Meh, I guess. Just seems a little odd to me. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 12:32, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

• My suggestion may be weird but would cause no harm. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:51, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
• @Jakec: No more to say on this? Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:54, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

• @Sainsf: It's already been done. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 13:11, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

• found to be the poorest habitat For aquatic life? Mention clearly.

• In general, I would assume.

• poor epifaunal substrate, low instream cover What do these terms mean?

• Eipfaunal is the only unusual word, and that's linked now.

• The borough of Dallas has plans As of when?

• Who knows. Probably they still do, which would make saying "as of" inappropriate.

• Dupicate links: Pennsylvania Route 309, forested ("Watershed")

• Removed forested, 309 should be okay since the other links are in different sections.

That should be all. A nice article! Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 13:32, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

@Jakec: You there? Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 13:31, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. I believe this article is ready for promotion now. Great job! Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 13:14, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
