Orphaned references in Catawissa Creek
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Catawissa Creek's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "battle": From Hemlock Creek:  From Mahoning Creek (Susquehanna River):  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 15:26, 27 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes, these references are effectively identical. Folklore1 (talk) 20:59, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Hydrology section
This really needs to be in table form - as it is in the reference. Also the acidity/alkalinity needs further clarification as for acidity: A total of 6,938.4 pounds (3,147.2 kg) flow through the creek for example is rather confusing mainly as acidity is not defined and the term simply redirects to acid. The section doesn't really discuss hydrology - rather it is simply a tabulation of dissolved ions. Needs more along with some discussion of the tabulated data. As is should be renamed dissolved metal load and acidity. Vsmith (talk) 14:29, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

This section is basically aquatic chemistry and for chemistry aluminium is the spelling per WP:ALUM. In addition the redundant milligrams per liter was changed to mg/L following the first usage. No reason was provided for the recent revert of that. Also the section uses mixed units mg/L and lbs/day - needs addressing. Vsmith (talk) 14:43, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
