Hicks Creek (Susquehanna River)

edit
  • ... that Hicks Creek falls 800 feet (240 m) in 2.4 miles (3.9 km) in its upper reaches, but only 12 feet (3.7 m) in 1.9 miles (3.1 km) in its lower reaches?

  • age and size ok, Earwig's tool negative. Hook cited - faithful to two sources, use same words only where necessary (difficult rephrase!). good to go. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 11:16, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
  • There are too many numbers for the reader to follow here, especially with the conversion templates. Could the hook be condensed to:
  • ALT2: ... that Hicks Creek falls 800 feet (240 m) in its upper reaches, but only 12 feet (3.7 m) in its lower reaches? Yoninah (talk) 20:57, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
  • That works too, but it's technically ALT2 since there's already an ALT1 above. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 21:39, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Changed to ALT2, thanks. Yoninah (talk) 22:07, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
