Stanwood, Washington

 * ... that Stanwood, Washington, was formed by the consolidation of two rival towns that needed to fund a modern sewage treatment system? Source: HistoryLink
 * Reviewed: Atlantis (commune)

Improved to Good Article status by SounderBruce (talk). Self-nominated at 06:49, 6 August 2018 (UTC).


 * Symbol question.svg New enough, nomination created four days after receiving good article status.  More than 15 times long enough.  Article written per NPOV guidelines.  Article has citations supporting each sentence in each paragraph.  No copying, paraphrasing, or other similar issues found.  Hook is within formatting policy.  Cited fact found directly in Prasse.  No image to check against.  This is ready for and deserving of mainpage exposure once the QPQ is complete.   78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 16:46, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * There1s a typo in the proposed hook. May I suggest ALT1: ... that Stanwood, Washington, was formed by the consolidation of two rival towns in order to fund a modern sewage treatment system? Catrìona (talk) 21:48, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. I have fixed the typo in the original hook, and I have assigned your proposed hook an ALT status.  Either hook is fine by me, I'll let the promoter choose which hook reads better.  Thank you!   78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 21:53, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * QPQ completed and added above. I'd also like to see ALT1 instead of the ALT0, as it's worded better.  Sounder Bruce  02:32, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg ALT1 approved per review above now that QPQ is complete.  78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 14:24, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
