This list is in the same format as two wildlife trust FLCs, Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust and London Wildlife Trust. Essex is especially interesting because it has a number of internationally important wetland sites on its coast. Dudley Miles (talk) 10:16, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- Support A very nice FLC, Dudley Miles. The previous reviewer hit most of the core issues so there's not much for me to comment on. Beyond that, as a routine check, Earwig shows low probability of copyvio and W3C finds no deadlinks. All data in table is sourced to RS. Images are (a) lavish, (b) appropriate, and (c) correctly licensed. Layout is compelling, interesting, and easy to follow. Overall a great job! LavaBaron (talk) 13:03, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Many thanks for your kind words LavaBaron. Dudley Miles (talk) 13:33, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support - This nomination caught my eye while transcluding my own nomination. Overall, this is a well-polished and informative list, and I have no concerns at all about the depth or accuracy of the content. I've read through the descriptions and only noticed a few minor things that could potentially be improved, as listed below...
- As of 2016, it has... - 2017 now, so this should either be updated or changed to past tense.
- Done. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- of any English county - maybe a pipelink to Counties of England?
- Done. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- I was unfamiliar with the term "coppicing" until just now. Could use a link.
- Done. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- wintering wigeon - should wigeon be plural like the other common names?
- Done. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- there many species on the saltmarsh - missing word somewhere.
- Fixed. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- drainage ditches and two ponds have a rich aquatic life - I don't think the "a" is needed.
- It sounds better to me with the "a" left in. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Juliancolton many thanks for your review and support. Dudley Miles (talk) 19:22, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comments –
"which was established in 1961; Its visitor centre...". Don't think "Its" should be capitalized here.- Revised. Dudley Miles (talk) 23:39, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Very minor, but citation 6 could use a period after p. for consistency with the other Ratcliffe cites. That's how hard you have to look to find issues here. It's another great piece of work and I look forward to supporting.Giants2008 (Talk) 21:23, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]- Revised. Many thanks Giants. Dudley Miles (talk) 23:39, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Revised. Many thanks Giants. Dudley Miles (talk) 23:39, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
