Long Reef from Dee Why

This article is new enough and long enough. The image is suitably licensed, the hook facts are cited inline and the article is neutral. I found one sentence copied from the source and I have rewritten it. I have also changed the number of shipwrecks and scuttlings in article and hook from 26 to 25, because one of the wrecks in the database was at a different location (in Queensland). Otherwise, no problems. QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:07, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, but found many paragraphs without at least one citation, per Rule D2. I also think the image is not interesting; perhaps you could offer an image of one of those shipwrecks or scuttlings? Yoninah (talk) 21:38, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

The beached SS Colaroy at Long Reef in 1881

The citation needed tags have since been addressed. I think this picture of a beached ship, already used in the article, works well with Yoninah's suggestion (though it isn't technically a shipwreck or scuttling as referred to in the hook). --Paul_012 (talk) 09:48, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

I have pulled this hook per the relevant discussion at WT:DYK. Gatoclass (talk) 21:45, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

thanks everyone. I was aware of the copy and paste issue. Just didn't get around to re-writing it. Filikovalo (talk) 06:08, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

ok...looking for a hook....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 13:52, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

I still think there was nothing wrong with the original hook, but as I can't be bothered debating it, here is one possible alt:

ALT2: ... that Bulgosuchus gargantua, a giant early temnospondyl from the Triassic period, is known only from Long Reef, New South Wales (pictured)?

- In order to use this as a hook, the source from Fossilworks[1] would have to be added to the article, along with the statement in the article itself. Gatoclass (talk) 11:11, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

reference added as requested Filikovalo (talk) 23:47, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

This should be good now. Hook fact verified in the Fossilworks page and cited inline. Copy-paste issue appears to have been resolved. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 12:56, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
