Template:Ping. Copyvio ok, new enough (2 Aug), nice hook which is in article followed by inline citation of a source I was able to verify quite easily. Well sourced and cited. Hook word count ok. A subject I am not familiar with the topic, but reads well. Will tick when QPQ done. Thank you. Whispyhistory (talk) 17:03, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Ping Template:Did you know nominations/Schloss Weilburg is the QPQ. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:30, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
Template:Reply thank you. QPQ done. Tick restored. Whispyhistory (talk) 19:52, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Ping shouldn't the term be "submerged" instead of "drowned"? Yoninah (talk) 23:03, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Template:Reply. I checked that....literature says drowned.." 1960, Alexa Bank, A Drowned Atoll in the Melanesian Border Plateau". Does that help. Whispyhistory (talk) 03:52, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
Yes, thanks, Template:U. Restoring tick per your review. Yoninah (talk) 06:31, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
The article is careful to say that this seamount may have been an atoll, so we can't possibly have a hook that states inaccurately that it was an atoll. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:10, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Reply. Thanks, quite right. Is this ok? Otherwise back to author.
- Alt1... that Alexa Bank is
possiblyprobably a drowned atoll? Whispyhistory (talk) 06:38, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
- Seems like a reasonable option, although "probably" may be a better word. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 06:46, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
Changing "possibly" to "probably" in ALT1 and replacing tick based on Whispyhistory's review. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:13, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
