The article is long and new enough. The text is quite good and no copyvio was observed. The hook is interesting and sourced, though I don't think this source is reliable enough for being used here (please take to RSN). I should add that the other source supporting the hook describes the area as the "the only known" salt marshes which I find to be a bit more accurate than the current hook. Though the picture is OK in terms of the copyright issues, do you have an alternative for it? I mean can you provide a better picture showing more details of the area? --Mhhossein talk 15:05, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
- I don't have any other suitable pictures, and getting a single picture that represents the entire area would be quite difficult. The picture does not need to be used should it be listed in DYK, as the image doesn't actually show the salt marsh anyway. If this source isn't reliable enough, it doesn't have to be used either, and the other source can be used. In that case, maybe the hook can be changed to:
