• ... that the management zoning of the Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve was partially designed around the needs of the Shengli Oil Field? Source: This condition may reflect the fact that the functional zoning map of the YRDNR represents a trade-off between wetland habitat protection and oil field development

Hook eligibility:

• Interesting: - I'm a little confused about the hook. Do you mean to say that the borders were laid out to minimize overlap between the reserve and the oil field? If so, then yeah, that is interesting.

QPQ: Done.

Overall: @Chipmunkdavis: Nice work on both articles. I had one question about the hook, though. Epicgenius (talk) 00:40, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

@Epicgenius:, thanks for the review. You are essentially correct about the hook meaning, although it applies to both the overall border and the "core area" border. See Fig 1 here for the park map, and how if you take crane nests as an environmental proxy, there's a mismatch between park and environment. Oil operations also continued in the park, of the remaining overlap of oil wells, there are 94 in the core area, 35 in the buffer zone and 396 in the experimental zone. Is there a rewording that would help clarify the hook? CMD (talk) 07:32, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the response. I'd personally suggest something like "the borders of the Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve were intended to minimize overlap with the Shengli Oil Field". Epicgenius (talk) 12:55, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

• ALT1: ... that the borders of the Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve were drawn to minimize impact on the Shengli Oil Field?

Sounds reasonable, borders can be internal. See ALT1. I'm looking for something stronger than "intended", as that may read as the intention not succeeding. CMD (talk) 13:20, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

ALT1 looks good to me. Epicgenius (talk) 14:01, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
