 * Symbol question.svg This article is highly similar to other articles, Keyser Creek and Lucky Run, also nominated for DYK. Is merger possible? George Ho (talk) 21:29, 8 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed of nomination as made; merger is not happening. BlueMoonset (talk) 13:48, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. The hook, though, is too statistical. Maybe you could write something about the ice pond, or about the flooding in 1936? QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 19:15, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I had a look and I don't think there's anything else terribly fascinating that can be pulled from the rest of the article. I suppose we could cut the statistics and just say:
 * ALT1:  ... that near its headwaters, the gradient of Lindy Creek is about ten times higher than it is in its lower reaches? -- Come to think of it, that's more succinct and more likely to draw in readers. --Jakob (talk)  aka Jakec  19:24, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg I agree. ALT1 hook ref verified and cited inline. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 19:31, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
