I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Little Fishing Creek's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 18:17, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.

Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 17:06, 03 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

• Looks good; I usually have to add suggestions for the infobox!

Lead

Paragraph 1

• You used "in" three times in the first sentence; could you replace with different words to end any repetition?

• I don't know of any less awkward way to write it. --

• It's just a valley? Tweaked word order slightly, though. --

• It's an official designation, hence the title case. Specifically, the highest level of protection available in PA. --
  talk) aka Jakec 12:30, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply
  ]

• I don't really think it fits with the previous paragraph, unfortunately. --

• I'm aware of it, and it's a tricky problem to solve. If I do what you suggest, then there are two links immediately adjacent to each other, which I'm pretty sure is also frowned upon. --

• Um...there are only three. All of these have WP articles. --

Looks like a very good article and surprising interesting. I would prefer that parts of the article be combined so it doesn't look like a list. I will put this article on hold for seven days. Thanks! Carbrera (talk) 00:48, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
