  • This article replaces a redirect and is long enough and new enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no policy issues. A QPQ has been done. @Mehrajmir13: Please check the change I made to the article about the direction of river flow. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:31, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
  • @Cwmhiraeth:-Sheer pathetic review. Which of my edits over the article; you don't agree with? ∯WBGconverse 15:20, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Your reviews directly affect the quality of content appearing at main page. Take the responsibility of your failure rather than blame my rudeness. ∯WBGconverse 05:26, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Stop until I take a comprehensive look. Multiple concerns about using fake references (using cites that does not support what's cited) have been raised about the other creations by this author. ∯WBGconverse 14:22, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
  • ☒N Fails basic requirements; after a purge of stuff written by the means of fake citations or poor-quality citations.∯WBGconverse 15:20, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
  • I expanded the article once again. The prose is now more than required.  MehrajMir (talk) 16:45, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
  • I reviewed the article according to the DYK criteria which does not include reviewing all the references. @Mehrajmir13: I will have another look at the article in a couple of days to see if it is stable and meets the other DYK requirements. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:32, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Wow. I presume that it was you who wrote that no policy issues were detected ? Last time I checked, WP:V and WP:RS were both included in our list of fundamental policies and guidelines. ∯WBGconverse 05:26, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Handing over this acrimonious review to someone else as I have been working on the article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:31, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Now appears to meet DYK requirements, and was new enough at the time of nomination. My one suggestion is to revise the last sentence to better reflect the source content, to something along the lines of "The toxins eventually reach the Indus River where there is potential to impact millions of people". NoGhost (talk) 05:55, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Ok looks good, sorry for the slow response. I still find some of the present/future verb tenses in the last paragraph awkward ("20,000 troops stationed[...]" vs. "The toxins will eventually[...]") for an encyclopedic entry, but I think this has more to do with my personal preference and shouldn't impact the DYK nom.

  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but the hook quickly moves away from the main subject to a glacier and a mountain range. Could you write something more to the point about the river? Yoninah (talk) 20:51, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
  • This is probably promotionable; wait. ∯WBGconverse 11:03, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
  • Article rewrote in near-entirety. Struck hook which is factually inaccurate. ∯WBGconverse 13:38, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
The article creator having not edited recently, I have added some information and restored some content removed by WBoG. Can I suggest:-
  • Reviewer needed to check ALT1 hook; original hook has been struck due to previous concerns. It's probably also a good idea to recheck the article after the recent edits removing and adding content. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:16, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
  • The statement "Siachen Glacier the second longest non-polar glacier in the world" (in ALT 1 hook and article intro) is not sourced but merely has a footnote that looks like OR. It would be better to say "one of the longest mountain glaciers in the world", as per EB (ref. #1). -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 13:56, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
  • I have added a reliable source which backs the alt and the statement.  MehrajMir (talk) 06:06, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

All issues have been addressed as far as I can see. Good to go for ALT1. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 12:51, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but the text has a few tags. Yoninah (talk) 23:59, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
  • I have done quite a bit of work on this article and would request that my name be added to the credits. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:15, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
  • So added. Yoninah, if your issues have been addressed, you can go ahead and promote. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:04, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Restoring tick per P199's review. Yoninah (talk) 22:44, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
