Comment

I reviewed this for article for it's DYK nomination and i have one minor comment. As DYK rules do not permit tags on the article, i thought of putting it here. Maybe the article creator or anyone else can help. It states that "The Drumright-Cushing field would go on to produce 330,000 barrels of oil a day at its peak." When was the peak needs to be mentioned. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 04:36, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was May 1917 (this source says 310,000 barrels), and I've updated it with a ref. Thanks for asking! Acroterion (talk) 12:12, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
