Benguela Province

[edit]

Fishing boats near Lobito

  • ... that since the 1960s, rich fish stocks off the coast have been one of the principal economic drivers of the Benguela Province (pictured) region?

5x expanded by Dr. Blofeld (talk), Rosiestep (talk). Nominated by Rosiestep (talk) at 18:55, 20 September 2014 (UTC).

  • Article has been 5 x expanded on the indicated day. There currently are a few issues:
    1. The hook is not sufficiently referenced. While the source mentions fish, it doesn't say anything about the 1960s and the stock off the coast.
    2. I'm not convinced the picture is suitable for 100x100 (license is fine, though). If it is included, something more explicit should be put into the hook to mention what is pictured here.
    3. Review is still missing. --Pgallert (talk) 17:34, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
  • It's been over two and a half weeks without any action. Dr. Blofeld, if Rosiestep isn't around (her talk page says she's on wikibreak), then you can supply the missing QPQ in her place. Something needs to happen here soon, though. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:48, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
Hey @Dr. Blofeld and Rosiestep: - I'm going to close this pretty soon. Anyone want to do a QPQ so it can keep going? PanydThe muffin is not subtle 11:48, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
@Panyd:, sorry for the delay; QPQ is now done. If you feel there's an issue with the hook's image, ok to omit it. --Rosiestep (talk) 19:49, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
  • @Rosiestep: - no problem taking out the image, that can be done with ease - unfortunately I agree with the original nominator - the source does not mention the 1960s, or the specific stock off of the coast. We could rewrite it to say that they rely heavily on fisheries, or, as I was looking through Source 6 trying to see if that had any dates on it, you could mention something from there. There appears to be a wealth of knowledge sitting in that one. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 12:35, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
  • for ALT1. Review done, hook information occurs in the article. Somehow Google books displays pages 80 and 82 of the referenced book to me but not page 81, therefore this is 'only' a grey tick. I'll leave it to the editor preparing the queue whether the pic is suitable or not. --Pgallert (talk) 11:57, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
  • I can view page 81 and it only mentions a 1999 project for IDPs. It says nothing about the Angola Civil War being the cause of the change in population structure. Yoninah (talk) 22:07, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

Yoninah Try this.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:51, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

  • Thanks! Hook ref verified and cited inline. Restoring tick. Yoninah (talk) 16:28, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
