- Done. jp×g 06:38, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

The United States Geological Survey gave Chain Island's elevation as 0 ft (0 m) in 1981
— do we really need to convert 0 ft?
- No. Fixed. jp×g 06:38, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
although it is designated by the State of California
— why not just "California"?
- Well, "California" would be fairly vague (random people in California? the land itself?) whereas "State of California" refers to its government. jp×g 06:38, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
As of 2014, sturgeon fishing at Chain Island was still good.
— what is "still good" supposed to mean? bit vague ...on an 1850 expedition
— should be "during an 1850 expedition"War Department
— should be linked to United States Department of Warby State of California engineers
— why not just "California"?
- As above (the state government specifically employed them; they weren't just normal engineers who happened to be from California). jp×g 06:38, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
- Could link capitalists
- Sure. It seems that this phrase is being used in a very different sense than the modern meaning (i.e. a proponent of capitalism), here it is being used to mean something like what we'd now call a "venture capitalist". jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
California's gold rush
— should be "California gold rush"
- Done. jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
Sacramento–San Joaquin river system
— I'm not sure, but should 'R' bu capitalized?
- I'm not sure either, but I think this capitalization is correct -- it's a "Sacramento–San Joaquin" "river system", not a "Sacramento–San Joaquin River" "system". jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
by the United States Geological Survey
— I'd remove 'United States'
- United States Geological Survey is a proper name, so it has to be given in full. jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- The value in inflation template is "as of 2020", not 2022. Using the {{CURRENTYEAR}} would be wrong.
- Fixed. jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- Anything after 1959 to add in the article?
- Sadly, none that I could find. jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
Images
[edit]- Images can take ALT text
- Done. jp×g 04:38, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
References
[edit]- Ref#1 — bare URL? format it.
- Fixed. jp×g 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- Don't mix {{citation}} with other cite-family templates (cite web, cite newspaper)
- Fixed. jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- Ref#4 — missing publisher
- I don't see which you are talking about. Reference #4 currently has
| publisher = Sacramento Local Agency Formation Commission
, and I don't see any other references without publishers. jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- I don't see which you are talking about. Reference #4 currently has
Retrieved 24 February 2021
v.1994-11-03
— inconsistent date format.
- Fixed. jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- The Los Angeles Times should just be Los Angeles Times
- Fixed. jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- Various of cite-newspaper templates should be cite-news, but thats fine if you wish to keep it as it is.
- Fixed. jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
- Most of the newspaper citations need "|via=Newspapers.com"
- Fixed. jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
That is it. Putting on hold. Consider removing the stub tag. It is a start-class article. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 16:06, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- All right, here we go. jp×g 02:08, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

- @Kavyansh.Singh: What do you think of it now? jp×g 06:53, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
