Y Look at the first two sentences. Is the steelhead a form of and not just a synonym of the rainbow trout? If it is a form, don't write steelhead in bold, and if it is a synonym, mention it in the first line as The rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) or steelhead is a species...
Yat sea-''in sea - "in the ocean"
Y Delete the duplicate links North America and Great Lakes.
Y References are not needed in the lead if the facts are already mentioned in the body of the article later on (with references, of course). I haven't checked that, just a thing to remember.
Y Please add more to the Lead. This should look like a mini-form of this article. Include all aspects discussed in the article in a systematic manner in the Lead.
Y Atlantic salmon,smolts,Pacific basin, brown trout, salmon, brown and cutthroat trout are duplicate links
Y Once steelhead enter riverine systems and reach suitable spawning grounds, they spawn just like resident freshwater rainbows. no reference.
YSpawning sites are usually a bed ... area, habitat, life history and quality and quantity of food. totally unreferenced.
Y Use references in "Length and weight"
Not sure I can do anything with this. This section is legacy text from the original article before I began re-writing and re-balancing the content. Not quite sure it is actually relevant or encyclopedic in the context of the overall article. I would much prefer it was removed from the article. --Mike Cline (talk) 18:41, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Same here. I re-read the section, I believe it seems out of place and full of obscure and unnecessary stuff. I have removed it.Sainsf<^>Talk all words 12:45, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Can we have a caption for the graph used?
See above comment
Y Write one-third rather than 1/3
Yat sea-''in sea - "in the ocean"
YI would recommend Feeding to be made an independent section
YIllustration of a rainbow trout is an unnecessary picture. It seems to be crowding the place.
Yand introduce rather write for their introduction
Y Hatchery, Germany are duplicate links
YIntroduced rainbow trout in regions outside their native range have established wild, self-sustaining populations where healthy conditions exist for spawning and growth unreferenced.
Yand recently in Chile Not sure what recently means here. Can you mention what time you are speaking of?
This was legacy content. My review of the sources indicate that the use of the word "recently" was a bit of vague OR on the part of the contributor. I removed the adverb, as regardless of when Chile became a producer, sources confirm they are the largest. --Mike Cline (talk) 18:49, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
YI would suggest to you to make these two sections sub-headings under an independent section "Uses" or under some other appropriate name. Let this be the last section in the article.
YOther introductions to ... the Great Lakes. unreferenced - references moved from lead
YWashington Coast Link the whole phrase properly otherwise don't link Washington at all.
YMy earlier suggestion about shifting this section
Y Why don't you use an image or two of some subspecies here (if available)?
So most problems are with verifiability and duplicate links. Please use my suggestions and respond soon. This is an article worthy to be a GA. Cheers! Sainsf<^>Talk all words 14:43, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, all good comments. Will work through them as soon as possible and highlight above as I fix. Am traveling this week so am away from my library, but I think I have or can get sources for all the needed areas as nothing here is not verifiable. --Mike Cline (talk) 15:26, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great! We have most of the things done, just a few things left which you need to do. I do not find any more problems in the article. Sainsf<^>Talk all words 12:36, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@Sainsf - Take a look at it now. I think I've addressed all the issues you raised. Please note there's one exception on the "Length-Weight". --Mike Cline (talk) 19:22, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The "exception" has been addressed. A few minor trifles that I noticed (Subspecies).
*Y Again, who do you refer to in Carl et al. (1994)? Remember, in whatever article you write, you must not just mention names of the persons you are referring to, give their professions clearly as well.
*YThe palomino trout ... golden trouts of California. No reference. See that every fact is referenced throughout the text.
Rest is well. I believe that once you see to these things, the article can be passed. Cheers! Sainsf<^>Talk all words 12:56, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Got the last of it done. Thanks for all the comments. It definitely made for a better article. I will apply these types of comments to every article I work on. Thanks again. --Mike Cline (talk) 11:36, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
(a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
✓Pass in verifiability.
(b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);
Therefore, Y GA promoted. I appreciate your quick and efficient hard work. The next big push for this article would be FAC. But no need to hurry, add more relevant and interesting literature, and with the efforts of such a good editor as you are, I have no doubt that this article will soon adorn the main page. Good luck! :) Sainsf<^>Talk all words 13:57, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
