Comment: a double nomination

Moved to mainspace by Jakec (talk). Self nominated at 19:48, 27 December 2014 (UTC).

I don't see, in the source, the bit about the 0.06 miles. Also, the statement in the article:

Rough Run joins West Branch Fishing Creek 2.82 miles (4.54 km) upstream of its mouth, only 0.06 miles (0.097 km) downstream of the mouth of Peterman Run.

is ambiguous. What is 0.06 downstream of the mouth of PR? Is it the place where RR joins WBFC? or is it the mouth of RR? or is it the mouth of WBFC? EEng (talk) 21:33, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

@EEng: The source says that PR joins WBFC 2.88 miles upstream of the mouth (of WBFC) and that RR joins WBFC 2.82 miles upstream of the mouth (again, of WBFC). The rest is basic math. --Jakob (talk) 21:43, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

for both articles. Checked length, nom timely, hook cited (calculation above is an exception to OR rules), appropriate cites, spotchecked copyvios. EEng (talk) 07:32, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
