Indian Cave Creek

[edit]

Moved to mainspace by Jakec (talk). Self-nominated at 01:39, 26 May 2015 (UTC).

  • The article is new, has never been featured on the Main Page, and is long enough. There are hooks for each paragraph and they are properly formatted. The hook has a neutral point of view and is not negative. The editor has completed their QPQ.
There are some concerns I have with the hook. "That Indian Cave Creek flows over a 40-foot (12-meter) waterfall" is present in the "Geography and geology" section, but the second part is not. Instead, that information is inferred in other parts of the article. I would suggest striking out the second part. The second problem is the inline citation given for the hook does not mention that Forty Foot Falls is forty feet high. If I am mistaken can you reply with the page number from the citation? In light of these issues, I would recommend the ALT1 hook below:
ALT1 ... that Indian Cave Creek flows over Forty Foot Falls in Archbald, Pennsylvania?
Let me know if you need any help or would like me to followup with this nomination. Z1720 (talk) 03:10, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
@Z1720: You are mistaken on both counts. The inline citation does in fact say that the falls are 40 feet high. It also says that the falls are at its mouth, which is White Oak Run. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 11:41, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
After taking a second look through the document, I was able to find where it states that it is a forty-foot fall (page 315) and it does say that they meet at White Oak Run (page 137). I am sorry for the confusion. I would recommend the original hook for the Main Page. Great work. Z1720 (talk) 17:35, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
