Since I've already gone through this pretty carefully for the DYK, I'll give this a shot. Guettarda (talk) 01:46, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Lead

edit
  • The lead is too short, and doesn't adequately summarise the contents of the article in a proportionate fashion.
  •  Y jp×g 08:06, 27 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • There shouldn't be any information in the lead that isn't in the body of the article, but it looks like the coordinates aren't anywhere else.

Location and access

edit
  • The third sentence, Approximately one mile (1.6 km) to the east is the Tiburon Peninsula (and Tiburon itself), is a sentence fragment.

  • Second paragraph: As a nature reserve... It isn't stated anywhere prior to this that the island is a nature reserve. This should either be mentioned before, or it should be stated as a fact, not mentioned in passing.

  • The rest of this para is a blow-by-blow Covid account. It should be rephrased in such a way that the entire closure is discussed as one, rather than this "sequence of events" style.
  • Strawberry Spit is linked at least three times.

Animals

edit
  • What's the significance of whelk snails? Are they native, naturalised, invasive? And can you link to the appropriate species (or at least genus) instead of the whelk article?
  •    Unfortunately, the article does not say what species they were looking for, although this can probably be found in some supplementary literature. jp×g 08:13, 27 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I'll respond to that when you get around to it. In the meantime I will take a crack at the stuff you've mentioned so far. jp×g 03:47, 27 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar):   b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):  
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):   d (copyvio and plagiarism):  
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
  • Nice work. The addition of the maps really enhances my understanding. I think it would help readers a lot if you explained what the maps show in their captions. Guettarda (talk) 13:20, 27 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
