Brownie Lake

Great work on the Brownie Lake page! I'd had a really barebones draft of a page on it sitting in my snadbox for years and I'm so glad someone did a much more thorough and complete job on it because I likely would have never gotten around to finishing it. Let me know if you'd like any help submitting the article to WP:DYK or anything else! Best, —Collin^{t c} 20:38, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks! It is my first article and I do not know how to do WP:DYK but would appreciate the help. Eswanner (talk) 18:43, 4 November 2019 (UTC)eswanner

And please accept my congratulations and thanks as well! Best wishes, Kablammo (talk) 21:28, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

DYK is a great way of showcasing interesting facts from new or recently substantially improved articles. Submitting an article requires crafting one or more hooks (interesting facts formulated as "Did you know that...[fact from new article]?" questions; see the Main Page for more!) Taking a glance at the article, a solid hook might be something like "Did you know ... that the surface area of Minneapolis's Brownie Lake shrunk 34% when a railroad embankment was built and another 56% when the lake was connected to nearby Cedar Lake?" If you have suggestions of other hooks, let me know over the next few days and I can get the DYK nomination going soon! Best —Collin^{t c} 02:25, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

"Did you know that Brownie Lake is a nexus of biking, walking, hiking, and ski trails in Minneapolis? Did you know there is a lake in Minneapolis that sequesters phosphorus in a bottom layer of water that never mixes? Eswanner (talk) 03:47, 5 November 2019 (UTC)eswanner
