• Laura, I saw this "Gibraltar" article and just could not resist! Length and date are fine. Hook citations-one online, one off-AGF (although we may be able to retrieve it-I was able to retrieve one of the other ones). No copy vios noted so far. I've tweaked the hook. Also, added text with two refs-for park and road/race. Small copy edits. Just need to work on prose a little bit more and better define location. I'm not sure that map is helpful to the article. We can look into that some more. Also, I think the official name is Gibraltar Range, although I didn't change the title yet because I was concerned about the possibility of messing with the nomination.

• Cannot move article as another article exists there. (The range actually covers more than the national park. Still, the national park overlaps only half the range.) Thus cannot move... though the sources do appear to support range slightly more than ranges as the name. Removed map. --LauraHale (talk) 21:01, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

• That's just a redirect. That can be fixed, which I've just done! Anne (talk) 21:31, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

• As usual, you have done an amazing job researching your subject. I've added a Google map of the mountains, and then replaced the above map, but with coordinates. I wish they had a map for the infobox with more detail (like the Gibraltar map). Anne (talk) 22:53, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
