All in all it's a good read. I was curious about the article because I'm quite familiar with Ike/Harvey/1900 Galveston storm. The article did a good job covering the important points of the topic, so I don't think my comments should be too difficult to address. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk) 15:51, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Hook eligibility:
QPQ: - Need a second QPQ since this is a dual nomination
Overall:
You need a second QPQ. Hook is not referenced in second article unless I am missing something. But I prefer the first hook because of the wordiness of the second.

Well I will make a note of this next time as precedent for my own but just noting the fact that these current nominations below still hold onto this idea. Also there is the issue of the image not used in the both articles. Maybe it should be specifically cited in the reviewing criteria if that is the case from now also if both hooks or images need to be used in both nominations.
Second QPQ done. AGF on the other issues.

I'll point out that Rollover Pass was closed and filled in in 2019. This was a source of some controvery. While the controversy may not be noteworthy, the closure and its argued effets on the estuary/bay could likely stamd to be noted in this article. 207.231.41.242 ( talk) 11:12, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
