Lindy Creek

  • ... that near its headwaters, the gradient of Lindy Creek is on the order of 400 feet per mile (76 m/km), but in its lower reaches, the gradient is only on the order of 40 feet per mile (7.6 m/km)?

  • Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed of nomination as made; merger is not happening. BlueMoonset (talk) 13:48, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
  • Symbol question.svg New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. The hook, though, is too statistical. Maybe you could write something about the ice pond, or about the flooding in 1936? QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 19:15, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
