  • that one of the earliest sea level benchmarks installed in the world and a convict cemetery remain preserved today on a tiny island in Tasmania called Isle of the Dead (pictured)? ([1][2])

Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.

I'd like to suggest a shorter, punchier hook:
ALT1: ... that a tiny Tasmanian island, the Isle of the Dead (pictured), is home one of the few preserved convict period burial grounds?

Thanks for reviewing my nomination! I'm happy with the shorter hook. Just wondering if the bibliography should be removed as it is a duplication of information already covered in the reference section? --Southpaw20 (talk) 07:49, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg ALT1 is also approved and meets DYK criteria. The rest of the article is as per my previous review. There is no proference mandated for how references are formatted. Please see WP:REF and make your own choice. I still suggest looking at WP:BIBLIOGRAPHY. Cheers. Flibirigit (talk) 09:29, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
