• ... that American frontiersman James Caudy purportedly fought off Native American fighters by nudging them off a rock formation (pictured) one by one with his rifle barrel?

• Reviewed: Erosion and tectonics and Francis R. St. John

Created by Caponer (talk). Self nominated at 04:25, 22 November 2013 (UTC).

• Before undertaking a review, I'd like to mention that I find it hard to believe that 53 citations are all cited to one page in Munske & Kerns (footnote 1). Yoninah (talk) 23:52, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

• I may have over cited within the article's prose, but every citation denotes information gleaned from that page in Munske & Kerns. Other than that, I don't know what else to tell you. -- Caponer (talk) 04:08, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

• Yoninah, would an image taken of the page in question from Munske & Kerns (2004) assist you in your review? I would like to assuage your doubts about the citations from this page within the article. -- Caponer (talk) 01:17, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

• Yes, it would. Yoninah (talk) 20:35, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

• Thanks Yoninah! Please let me know if you need any additional resources to complete your review. Thanks again for taking the time! Munske & Kerns 2004 link -- Caponer (talk) 01:56, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

• Article is new enough, long enough, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in the sources I can access. QPQ done (only 1 was needed for this nomination). Hook is very hooky and verified both in the link you sent me and in the historical marker pictured in the article. Excellent research job, and very good article! Good to go.
