Nice article. I've made a handful of formatting and other changes, you may want to look at the few "wikilinks" I added at the start, such as to the two counties, and make more links like that to integrate your article in with the rest of the article. Thanks! -- j⚛e decker ^talk 04:57, 16 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Regarding User talk:ConradPino#HOP Ranch, I'm unable to help as I'm not an experienced evaluator and my schedule lacks free time. – Best reards, Conrad T. Pino ( talk) 01:30, 22 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Hello! Your submission of HOP Ranch at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified.

If you have access to the book, it would not hurt to quote in the efn format the statement regarding the Ming Dynasty glaze. There is a perceived problem, and the exact text would help on the DYK. I am just trying to break an interminable logjam. I would not mind being given credit as a cocreator, if you feel the urge. good luck and best regards. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 19:18, 21 October 2014 (UTC) reply

No it is not bad form to request a review. I just put a request on User:7&6=thirteen's talk page, and if he doesn't answer soon, I'll try another regular DYK reviewer. However, please be aware that due to recent changes and bad feeling in the DYK community, many reviewers are not reviewing anymore and the nominations really are sitting a long time. There are presently 359 nominations with only 23 approved. Your help is needed to help work through the backlog! Best, Yoninah ( talk) 18:46, 29 October 2014 (UTC) reply

• Came back after there was some questions that arose after an initial review. New enough, more than long enough. QPQ is confirmed. Clearly notable on this article, which has an interesting connection to Detroit and Pewabic Pottery. But I digress. Well referenced and supported by more than ample source. My plagiarism checker is not functioning, so I could not check for copyvio or close paraphrasing. Latest hook and article are neutral, and interesting and referenced. Assuming that the interaction with the native Americans is interesting enough, I thought the supply of field glasses and rifles was itself illuminating. I would appreciate it if somebody would check for copy vios, although I thin there are none. But I don't want this to bite me in the ass. 7&6=thirteen ( ☎) 18:53, 29 October 2014 (UTC) reply

On 2 November 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article HOP Ranch, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Holmes family of the early Colorado HOP Ranch befriended Southern Ute Native Americans, fed them biscuits and lent them field glasses and rifles for hunting expeditions? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/HOP Ranch. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
