Did You Know
A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the " Did you know?" column on March 18, 2010.
The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that the name for the Texas stream Cibolo Creek comes from the Native American and Spanish word for Buffalo, who were hunted along its steep banks?

"Native American"

The article asserts that this is from the Native American word for buffalo. There are hundreds of Native American languages. Which one is meant here? (This is like saying the word was borrowed by the European word for peanut butter). Also a citation is needed for this assertion. Comhreir ( talk) 22:18, 18 March 2010 (UTC) reply

I've added a cite; here's a direct link to the online version. It is not clear on which language cibola derives from; Zuñi? Kuru (talk) 00:58, 19 March 2010 (UTC) reply

Comments
  • Need to state the country ("United States") in the first sentence.
  • Values need to be converted to metric; use {{ convert}}.
  • Flagicons should be kept at a minimum, and should not be used as decoration. Please remove them from the infobox.
  • A lot of the information in "course" seems to be unreferenced.
  • The course description seems a bit vague.
  • It's a bit picky, but the references are supposed to be right after the punctuation—not before—and without spaces.
  • There seems to be an expectancy for both a 'geology' and a 'watershed' section, both of which lack in this article.
  • I cannot find any other quality articles with max size of fish; i fear it is WP:NOTDIRECTORY.. How about instead writing a section about wilderness and recreation along the river, including some prose about fishing. Fish size also have to be converted.

I am placing the article on hold. Arsenikk (talk) 20:50, 2 April 2010 (UTC) reply

The article is looking a lot better with some more information, and deserves to be called a good article. Arsenikk (talk) 09:26, 9 April 2010 (UTC) reply
