Keyser Creek
[edit]- ... that the first white settlers in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, settled near Keyser Creek?
Moved to mainspace by Jakec (talk). Self-nominated at 19:52, 8 April 2015 (UTC).
This article is highly similar to other articles, Lindy Creek and Lucky Run, also nominated for DYK. Is merger possible? George Ho (talk) 21:28, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- @George Ho: The three hooks are completely different from each other. This one is about history, Lindy Creek is about geography, and Lucky Run is about hydrology. A merger would also require that hook facts from each article to appear in the other two, where such information would be irrelevant. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 21:33, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- Regardless, look at the patterns and layouts among all three. George Ho (talk) 21:35, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
It doesn't matter unless they're in the same set. Another review? --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 21:39, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

- George Ho, this article and others on this page are part of a series Jakob is doing on small bodies of water in the same geographical area, which he has also nominated for GA. There are others who write multiple articles on their particular field of interest and follow the same patterns and layouts when they do - lots and lots of DYK nominations like that. I don't see anything in the DYK rules that requires anyone to merge their articles - or to put them all in one multi-nomination. If it bothers you, just move on and review something else. — Maile (talk) 23:42, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Very nice job, Jakob. This is longer than other articles by you that I've reviewed, and very factual and well-sourced. New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref is verified and cited inline. I expanded the link to Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania to place the creek on the map for readers. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 18:45, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
