Spruce Run at Pennsylvania Route 254, looking upstream

  • Article is new enough, long enough, it has adequate references with no evidence of plagiarism; hook is appropriate length and reference is good; hook fact has in-line citations; and photo is editor’s own work. One comment … since “woodland herb” is not well defined, I recommend adding a couple of examples to hook. Ferns and sedges were specifically cited in hook source so here is alternative hook with those examples included:
ALT: ... that more than 80 species of woodland herbs are found near Spruce Run (pictured), including fifteen fern species and twelve sedge species?
Using either hook, DYK is good to go.--Orygun (talk) 17:56, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
The alt is fine with me. --Jakob (talk) 12:39, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Since the ALT hook was proposed by Orygun and it added new facts, it needs an independent reviewer to check it. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:42, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
  • Source confirms article's statement of 15 ferns and 12 sedges, so the additional facts added to the original hook to get ALT1 are properly backed up. Rest of approval per Orygun's original review and tick. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:59, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
