Mining industry of Morocco
... that the mining industry of Morocco includes more phosphate production than any country save for the United States and China?
Moved to mainspace by Rosiestep (talk), Nvvchar (talk), and Dr. Blofeld (talk). Nominated by Rosiestep (talk) at 17:29, 2 July 2015 (UTC).
-Morocco - nominated 1 day after created, length of over 3400 characters is adequate, reference citations check, hook source verified and is interesting, no copyvio or plagiarism, 2 Flickr pictures in article properly licensed plus 1 map image licensed correctly, but none used in DYK nomination. QPQ of Romy Gundermann done.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 19:54, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
This reference [1] confirms that mining contributed up to 35% of exports and 5% of GDP in 2011 as per reference. I have made the correction. 75% reserves is correct as per this reference. Hence, I am suggesting an alt hook.
...that the mining industry of Morocco includes more phosphate production than any country save for the United States and China?- ALT1 Hook
... that the mining industry of Morocco has the world's third largest production of phosphate, behind China and USA?Nvvchar 16:06, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Good To Go for ALT1 Hook.

As far as I can determine, neither of the sources given for the ALT1 hook are current: the moroccobusinessnews source dates from 2005 and doesn't mention China or the United States; the end of the paragraph from the Mining Laws and Regulations book seems to be sourced to 2009, and is strictly in past tense (as opposed to the previous two paragraphs, both of which are in present tense): "possessed about three-quarters" and "was the third-ranked producer of phosphates after China and the United States". Also, the hook's "behind China and USA" has grammatical problems, aside from the fact that "USA" shouldn't be used to describe the United States (see MOS:NOTUSA). I can see how a reviewer might not be acquainted with the "USA" issue, but the wording itself should have been addressed in the review. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:12, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

New reviewer needed to check ALT2, including whether the sources are adequate to allow a present-tense "has", or if qualification is needed in the wording to reflect the age of the information. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:11, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
