... that the Rokel River estuary (pictured), which extends over an area of 2,950 square kilometres (1,140 sq mi), became a
Ramsar wetland site of importance in 1999?
Article expansion checks out, it is generally well referenced and readable, QPQ done and there appear to be no problems with image copyright or close paraphrasing. On the other hand, I am not certain the image is approproate, since it does not depict the river proper, and, more importantly, I could not find the reference for its listing as a Ramsar site. The sentence is unreferenced both in the lede and the main article (it is not covered by ref. #5, which originally was in another paragraph).

I've added a UN ref for the Ramsar sentence. --
