The Big Duck

... that duck farming on Long Island got a boost from a big duck (pictured)?

Comment: This has incubated a long time. I started Big Duck in 2006 and finally got around to getting it up to GA standards. By coincidence, I saw that Chiswick Chap had just put Domestic duck up for review. We reviewed each other's GA noms, which as far as I can tell from WP:DYKRR is not a problem.

Improved to Good Article status by RoySmith (talk) and Chiswick Chap (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 39 past nominations.

Hah, the Big Duck image looks great. Yeah, I think the round-robin with the reviewing is fine here. Great articles all around; both are eligible and high-quality. Source checks out, as do both QPQs. Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 02:34, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Not to be the pedantic spoilsport, but "got a boost" is too vague of a claim to be definitively true or false. Hook can definitely be salvaged by mentioning how it got a boost, so this probably won't hold up the nomination. Bremps... 11:38, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - ALT1: ... that a big duck (pictured) helped promote duck farming on Long Island'?
