- Comment adding "{{subst:DYKtick}} Good 2 go.--~~~~" is not a sufficient QPQ-review. Please review another article where you elaborate what you review and why it meets the DYK-criteria. The review you have used as a QPQ in this nomination have been questioned and continued by other editors - if not I would have asked you to go back and re-review that nomination.

- The article is not long enough. It currently runs at 1168 characters. It needs expansion to be considered further for DYK. Plus I cannot verify that ...sometimes also called the Stekenjokkvägen in reference [1]. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 03:29, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

- I would suggest some more expansion because the length is just 1513 characters. As soon as someone copyedits the article it may easily fall below 1500. This is too close to the edge. Also the reference to ALT1 looks like a hotel website. Are you sure it is reliable? Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 03:00, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
- I will have to withdraw this nomination. It is difficult finding anymore information and I think the article is good on its own even if not mentioned at DYK. So withdrawn.--BabbaQ (talk) 14:32, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
- Perhaps you should reconsider. I have expanded it and included some nice new details. There was even a movie by Astrid Lindgren filmed in the area. That could be used as a hook. Not to mention that the population density of the wilderness area is less than 1 person per square km. Your choice. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 23:50, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
- ALT2: ... that Hällingsåfallet, a waterfall along the Vildmarksvägen route (pictured), has been described as "Sweden's answer to Niagara Falls"?

- OK I searched and searched but did not find that information. So thank you!. Yes, lets go for that hook. Regards,--BabbaQ (talk) 10:28, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
- You are very welcome BabbaQ. I agree. Let's go for ALT2. The problem now is that I cannot approve it because I created it. So we have to wait for some other editor to approve it. Take care. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 10:33, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
- By the way the article after my expansion stands at 2662 characters. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 07:56, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
