Paget Marsh Nature Reserve
edit
- ... that the Paget Marsh Nature Reserve in Bermuda has been called the "best surviving example of native cedar (pictured), palmetto, and mangrove forests", yet the island at one point lost 99% of its cedar trees?

- Created 30 January and nominated 2 February, and is about 3500 characters, satisfying length and creation criteria. Hook is just under 200 characters, but there is no citation attached to it in the article (see DYK rules, point 3b). Citations for a few other points (such as the pond having been a garbage dump) would be appreciated, but are not necessary for the DYK. This article surely belongs to other categories too (say, within the Category:Marshes hierarchy), and Category:Geography of Bermuda seems overly broad (and one of its descendants is already included). Not important for DYK, but useful for the project overall. Once the citation issue is cleared, this DYK should be ready to go. Mindmatrix 14:49, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for the review. I have addressed all the issues mentioned by fixing references. I hope it is in order now.--Nvvchar. 17:46, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
Good to go, though I would prefer a more reliable source than Bermuda Online. Mindmatrix 17:28, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
