Mountains on Io

[edit]

Hi'iaka Patera with nearby mountains with the 11 km high peak of Hi'iaka Montes to the north

Moved to mainspace by Lsuanli (talk). Nominated by Graeme Bartlett (talk) at 21:36, 10 April 2014 (UTC).

  • The article fails on a simple test: that within five days of the date of nomination (April 10th), the character count (in my WP) was just under 11,000, while the most recent April 4th edit was just over 10,000. Lsuanli certainly did an impressive amount of work on this, both before and after the nomination, but. Ravenswing 11:45, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
  • @Ravenswing:: As per criteria 1d, articles that have been worked upon exclusively in a user subpage and then moved to the article mainspace are considered new as of the date they reach the mainspace. This article was moved from a user subpage to the article mainspace at 16:11, April 7, 2014 (UTC) and nominated 3 days later. It thus passes the newness test and needs a full review. --Allen3 talk 19:52, 20 April 2014 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. The references in general are off-line and the hook fact is accepted in good faith. The image is in the public domain. I could not assess whether any policy issues such as close paraphrasing are involved nor whether the article content is scientifically sound, but it seems good to me.
