 * The National Map does not just show a map of the United States; it's possible to zoom in on any point. Just type Darby Creek into the search box and navigate to Darby Creek. Can you be more specific about what (if any) other references have errors? --Jakob (talk)  aka Jakec  11:02, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I found some more information from the map. I searched for Darby Creek and found it. All the information I found was the address and elevation of Darby Creek (unless I am blind). However, the map does provide where it's located and where the creek runs by. The following paragraph is a piece of the article from the "Source" section, which cites this map. I will be checking off which statements are backed up by this source and what are not. I carefully read the statements and followed the map. All the statements backed up by this reference are clearly visible on the map. Thank you very much Jakec, without your comment I would have never been able to be slower and actually found out that the information is backed up by reference 2. As far as I can tell, everything in the article is properly reference. I will be changing the status from "on hold" to "passed". Congratulations on another job well done! It's officially a GA article! And Jakec, thank you for teaching me a lesson today. I need to be a little more (more like a lot) slower when reviewing GANs. Thanks!

 * Darby Creek begins in a small valley near US Route 30 in Treddyffrin Township, Chester County. ✅
 * It flows south-southeast for more than a mile before entering Easttown Township and turning east-northeast for several tenths of a mile. ✅
 * The creek then turns southeast for a few miles, passing through Newton Township, Delaware County and entering Radnor Township, where it receives its first two named tributaries, Thomas Run and Little Darby Creek, from the right and left, respectively. ✅
 * The creek then turns south-southeast for several tenths of a mile before turning southeast for several more miles. ✅
 * In this reach, it receives the tributary Miles Run from the left and the tributary Camp Run from the right. ✅
 * The creek eventually turns east briefly before receiving the tributary Ithan Creek from the left and turning south-southeast for several miles along the border between Marple Township and Haverford Township. ✅
 * In this reach, the creek flows alongside Interstate 476 and crosses it once. ✅
 * As it continues downstream alongside the highway, it crosses Pennsylvania Route 3 and receives the tributary Longford Run from the left. ✅
 * Near Pilgrim Gardens, it turns southeast again and begins to flow along the border between Upper Darby Township and Springfield Township, crossing US Route 1 and receiving the tributaries Colleen Brook and Lewis Run from the left and right, respectively. ✅
 * Further downstream, the creek's valley becomes much steeper and narrower and it makes several meanders as it passes by Clifton Heights and Landsowne before flowing along the border between Aldan and Yeadon. ✅
 * The creek then flows south-southeast for a few miles, leaving its valley and passing Darby, Collingdale, Sharon Hill, and Colwyn as it crosses US Route 13. ✅
 * It then receives the tributary Cobbs Creek from the left. ✅

As far as other references go, the other references do not have errors as far as I can tell. Looks great!
