 * Symbol question.svg Expansion size and date is fine. Spot check on paraphrasing did not reveal any problems. Picture license seems ok. Stub tags should be removed. Hook is interesting but hook facts are not mentioned in the article, as far as I could see. First, distance from the coast is not mentioned. Second, "twice the size" appears ambiguous (length or weight?), the article says double weight, but this is not cited. Also, is the link to the genus Apodemus in the hook (instead of a particular species) appropriate? Oceanh (talk) 22:26, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thanks for fixing the issues. As said earlier, interesting hook. You might consider to replace the first occurrence of the word "mainland" in the description section, to avoid confusion. Oceanh (talk) 21:35, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
