Dark Run

[edit]

  • ... that Dark Run is the only tributary of Catawissa Creek to be a High-Quality Coldwater Fishery, but not Class A Wild Trout Waters?

Moved to mainspace by Jakec (talk). Self nominated at 14:39, 12 October 2014 (UTC).

  • A comment on the hook: We've been seeing a lot about classification of Wild Trout Waters in several other hooks already. Is there anything else you can say about this article? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 00:16, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: How about ALT2: ... that Dark Run (pictured) is one of the few fertile streams in the watershed of Catawissa Creek that supports fish life? It has a nice, startlingly counter-intuitive feel to it IMHO. --Jakob (talk) 00:20, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Yes, definitely! And what about adding that gorgeous picture that you took in the infobox to the nomination?
  • Article is new enough, long enough, adequately referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. I would like to suggest that you add a link to the first mention of "watershed" in the article. It took a long time to open up the source for the hook (footnote 3), but I can't find the hook fact there; what page is it on? QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 01:47, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: It's actually sourced to pages 3 and 20 of this. I've already edited the article to reflect that. Thanks for the suggestion about the picture; I've added it. --Jakob (talk) 02:32, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks. ALT2 hook ref verified and cited inline. Image is PD. ALT2 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 09:06, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
