East Rennell edit

  • ... that UNESCO has added East Rennell to its List of World Heritage in Danger? Source: "The World Heritage site of East Rennell has been inscribed on the List of World Heritage in Danger due to logging that is affecting the ecosystem of the Solomon Islands’ World Heritage site."

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 19:30, 6 December 2017 (UTC).

  • Hi Cwmhiraeth, review follows: Article expanded five times between 29 November and 1 December; article is cited to reliable sources; Minimum of one reference per paragraph; hook is cited in the article and checks out to the source; hook is interesting enough for me; QPQ done. I did, however notice that the phrases "the largest raised coral atoll in the world" and "occupies the southern third of the island" seem to come from the introduction and the brief synthesis section of this source. Is there a way to rephrase these to avoid following so closely? - Dumelow (talk) 19:50, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
  • @Dumelow: I have rephrased those bits, but it is difficult to find other words to express "largest raised coral atoll". Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:15, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
Thanks Cwmhiraeth, looks good to me now - Dumelow (talk) 20:28, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
