Starting review--Kevmin § 17:04, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
- Starting note, the article title should likely be adjusted to reflect several other notable Silver Lakes are present in Washington--Kevmin § 16:48, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
  - Fair enough, renamed to Silver Lake (Whatcom County, Washington)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Generalissima (talk • contribs)
  - Article expansion new enough and long enough. Article is fully cited and neutrally written. Portions of the history section are veering close to CLOP status however with the Silver Lake Natural Resource Area source and should be wordsmithed.--Kevmin § 18:50, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
    - Which portions? Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 18:51, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
      - The second half of sentence two, the fourth sentence and the last sentence are all very close paraphrases which should be reworded. (Also as a basic note, be cageful not to post below the end of the template here, I've move a couple of your replies up to make sure the templating isn't broken by accident.)--Kev min § 16:44, 9 October 2025 (UTC)
      - @Generalissima:, Ive not seen any changes to the CLOP areas.--Kev min § 02:27, 18 October 2025 (UTC)
        @Kevmin: Oops! forgot about this, my bad. Should be fixed. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 02:40, 18 October 2025 (UTC)
How does this meet WP:DYKINTEREST? organisms disappearing from certain areas, especially human impacted ones, is pretty normal. (t · c) buidhe 19:16, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
- It's funny because of the name, it'd make a good quirky hook. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 16:58, 11 October 2025 (UTC)
  - Article expansion new enough and long enough. Article is fully cited and neutrally written. Hook cited, verified to sourcing as accurate, and neutral, will work well for the quirky spot. QPQ done. Looks good to go.--Kev min § 16:00, 18 October 2025 (UTC)
