Nature reserves in the North Norfolk Coast Site of Special Scientific Interest

 * Nominator(s):  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:49, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

I am writing a possible future FT on the North Norfolk Coast Site of Special Scientific Interest, including separate articles on the larger nature reserves it contains. Not all the reserves have sufficient information available to reach FA/GA, so this is a summary of the basic information to ensure that even the 5-ha patches appear somewhere in the topic. I've spent some time on the overview, so I hope the article as a whole makes sense, thanks in advance for your comments,  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  15:49, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Quick comment – Scanned the references for formatting/reliability issues, and the only minor things I saw were an improper hyphen in the publisher of ref 33 (should be an en dash instead) and the need for a space before the access date of ref 40.

 * Thanks for that, I missed the hyphen because it wasn't in a page range, both done now  Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  05:49, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Support Dana boomer (talk) 19:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC) Comments - Overall, very nice. A few thoughts:
 * "form on sheltered parts of the coast, in the lee of islands or behind spits" Is this a series of three, or are the last two examples of the first?
 * I've added an AE style comma to make it clear that it's three <b style="font-family:chiller; color:red;"> Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)


 * "Grassland is represented by grazing pasture" Is this grazed by wildlife or livestock?
 * Added livestock


 * "A 2005 survey at six North Norfolk coastal sites" Is there any way to get an update on this, or was it a one-off survey?
 * Unfortunately, it appears to be a one-off <b style="font-family:chiller; color:red;"> Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)


 * "who made overnight stays in the area in 1999" Again, any way to update this? It's over a decade out of date...
 * As above, I thought it better to put in old data than nothing at all, but these surveys are few and far between. I haven't been able to find anything more recent <b style="font-family:chiller; color:red;"> Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Once these are addressed, I think I'll be happy to support. Dana boomer (talk) 16:37, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * What is a "bird hide"? I'm assuming it's an area of protective cover, but haven't heard this term before.
 * bird hide linked now at each occurrence (since the list is sortable), they are called "blinds" in the US <b style="font-family:chiller; color:red;"> Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, I was completely wrong! I thought it was someplace the birds hid from people, not where people hid from birds :) Dana boomer (talk) 19:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for review and useful comments <b style="font-family:chiller; color:red;"> Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  18:41, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks for the responses. Too bad that there aren't any more recent surveys...but I agree that information that is a bit out of date is better than no information at all. Changed to support. Dana boomer (talk) 19:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for support. Believe me, birds can hide very well without help! <b style="font-family:chiller; color:red;"> Jimfbleak - </b> talk to me?  05:55, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
