... that when iceberg A-38 calved from the Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf in 1998 it carried a German research station with it? "An iceberg larger than the state of Delaware peeled off from the Ronne Ice Shelf near Berkner Island in west Antarctica last month, sending a German research facility adrift into the Weddell Sea" from: Colhoun, Alexander (November 8, 1998). "Giant Berg Breaks Free, Sends Station Afloat"(PDF). Antarctic Sun. United States Antarctic Program at McMurdo Station, Antarctica. p. 5.
Clear at 100px: - I don't think that the picture is clear enough to see what is going on at this resolution.
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Meets all requirements. But I'm not sure the pic is clear enough to be run. (t · c) buidhe 21:56, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks buidhe. I've since created an article for Filchner Station. I've boldlinked this in the hook above. Would you mind reviewing this as a second article? Many thanks - Dumelow (talk) 09:11, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Approved, it appears to meet all the DYK requirements (newness, length, copyvio, etc.) (t · c) buidhe 09:21, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
