Wiki L&O Review
[edit]Hi Emcbride36! Nice job with your new article. I have some feedback for your below. My name is Erin Larson, and I am a professor of environmental science and a founding member of WikiProject L&O.
You might consider expanding on the Lake Association section, as there is currently only one sentence there.
You could tighten up some of your writing a bit. For example, currently the article states "Currently, The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources performs a lake drawdown during the months of September and October[3]. This drawdown is done at no more then 4’’ increments per day with normal drawdown levels being 16’’-20’’ in depth, but may also use an extended drawdown with a drawdown of 84” [4]. This is done in order to help with invasive plant species throughout the lake.". This could be shortened to something like this: "Currently, The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources performs a lake drawdown during the months of September and October[3] to help with invasive plant species throughout the lake. This drawdown is done at no more than 4’’ increments per day with normal drawdown levels being 16’’-20’’ in depth, but may also use an extended drawdown with a drawdown of 84” [4]."
You might consider adding more sources to your introduction about the geologic history of the lake. Where did you find this information?
Be sure to read through for typos! For example, currently you have "populations" spelled as "poulations" under the Fishing and Wildlife section.
