2013 Eastern China smog
- ...
that NASA's Terra satellite captured 1,200 kilometres (750 mi) of smog (pictured) stretching across Eastern China?
5x expanded by NancyZ888 (talk). Nominated by Rotideypoc41352 (talk) at 04:31, 26 March 2014 (UTC).
Length OK, hook potentially interesting and referenced, expansion criteria met. I checked that the image is from NASA, which would seems to make image copyright ok. As pointed out by Matty.007, referencing needs to be correctly done in the paragraph ending with the word 'Bakground' (first DYK review ever made by: Star Lord - 星王 (talk) 15:03, 28 March 2014 (UTC) )
I think the referencing issues are fairly important to fix first: they are not inputted into the article correctly up to the end of 'Background'. Thanks, Matty.007 19:53, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for pointing this out. I did not see this at first. I have changed my comment above.Star Lord - 星王 (talk) 20:16, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
- I have fixed the referencing issues in the first paragraph of the Background section. Thanks for the feedback so far! For the hook, I was shooting for the fact that pollution was so severe that it could be seen from space. Any suggestions as to how to improve the wording? Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 06:47, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- Alt 1: ... that the 2013 smog in East China could be seen by satellite (pictured)? Matty.007 11:54, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's better. Thanks! Also, should "east" be capitalized? Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 18:10, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- Per the MOS, compass points aren't capitalised (so your edit needs reverting I'm afraid). Thanks, Matty.007 18:42, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
- I've reverted the edit. Should the page be moved to 2013 eastern China smog? Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 21:12, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
Template:Outdent That seems right, but I'm not 100% sure. I'll ask around and reply here. Thanks, Matty.007 09:56, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
- It seems from my question that East China may have attained the status of a proper name, which is allowed, so I reverted your revert, and the page stays where it is. Sorry for the confusion, Matty.007 13:31, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
Could someone please check the alternate hook? Thank you! Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 01:28, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
Good to go with ALT1, hook is stated in the article and sourced thusly: Template:Tq — Maile (talk) 14:24, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
