 * Dibs on this one. Abyssal (talk) 17:31, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg New enough. Long enough. I think the description section is too closeley paraphrased and also a bit technical for non-specialists. Abyssal (talk) 03:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It is interesting that you should say there is close paraphrasing in the description section because Earwig gives the article a clean bill of health with a 0.0% confidence. However, I have rewritten one sentence, and I do not think erring slightly on the technical side is a bar to DYK. Of course I could leave out some of the details, which are mostly concerned I suppose with distinguishing this species from other similar ones, but that seems a pity. When describing organisms, there is a certain order in which the different characteristics are mentioned and I need to stick to that. If you want me to make further alterations, you could perhaps be more precise about sentences you don't like. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:38, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Long enough, created within seven days of nomination, no close paraphrasing issues, QPQ complete. The one issue is that the hook is unclear. I would tack a "for camouflage" on the end or something like that to make it more easy to understand what "wear sponge" means. Ashorocetus (talk &#124; contribs) 13:53, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Well I don't mind having ALT1, but I prefer the original hook which I think is quite intriguing because you wonder what it's all about. I thought that hook would be good for the quirky spot in the hook set. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:43, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT1 ... that the crab Lauridromia dehaani prefers to wear sponge for camouflage?
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article still good, with no policy issues identified, no issues with close paraphrasing that I can identify. I think the original hook is more interesting. but either are usable.-- Kev  min  § 15:08, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
