- Comment: PEIsquirrel is my alt. I don't know why the template is saying 0 past nominations (maybe I used my alt? I have 5 according to my user page) but QPQ should be required. I'll take care of that shortly.

QPQ: - Not done
Overall: New enough, long enough, sourced and neutral, Earwig detects no copyvio issues other than long names and quoted passages, the hook is interesting. I am awaiting the QPQ as mentioned by the nominator. Ivanvector I want to clarify with you the value of "4,000 years" mentioned in the hook. I see a value of 3000 years as mentioned by "suggest the possible presence of a drowned site dating within the Woodland Period (which spans from about 3000 years ago to the recent historic period)." but I'm not sure whether the "to the recent historic period" is inclusive of an additional thousand years or not, I am not familiar with the terminology enough to make my own determination.

- @Ivanvector: Please address the above. Z1720 (talk) 14:44, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Z1720 and Ornithoptera: I appreciate the pings. Very busy at work today and for the next few, but I will get to this. Regarding "4,000 years", one of the sources refers to human habitation on the islands from 2,000 BC, but it's not this source. I'll have to find it again.
