Texas toad

 * ... that during dry weather, the Texas toad remains dormant for much of the time?
 * Reviewed: Meet Me Again

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self nominated at 13:29, 14 September 2014 (UTC).


 * Symbol question.svg Article was expanded to over 1500kB from original 304 bytes, and nominated two days later, satisfying date and length criteria. QPQ completed. Minor issues: article says "seasonally inundated", but source says "frequently inundated"; it's likely both, given the habitat, but clarification would be welcome. The distribution information isn't entirely from the cited source - some of it is from the second source listed but not attributed for this fact. I also fixed what appeared to be a reference cut-and-paste from another article. Once these minor issues are addressed, this article is ready for DYK promotion.

 * Forgot to review the hook - the source doesn't actually mention "for much of the time", which can be stricken from the hook. I've added ALT1 to reflect this. Mind  matrix  01:40, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * ALT1: ... that during dry weather, the Texas toad remains dormant?
 * I am happy with ALT1 and have made the changes to the article you suggested. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:25, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
