Aarhus

Aarhus waterfront

  • ... that Aarhus (waterfront pictured) is the second-largest city in Denmark?
  • Reviewed: Not a self-nomination

Improved to Good Article status by Dr. Blofeld (talk), RhinoMind (talk), Ipigott (talk). Nominated by Oceanh (talk) at 00:08, 3 August 2014 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Meets the criteria. But the hook should be more clear. By "second-largest", you mean population-wise or size-wise? Vensatry (ping) 18:28, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for the review. It's by population; below is an alternative formulation. Oceanh (talk) 20:35, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
  • ALT1: ... that the city of Aarhus (waterfront pictured) is the second-most populous urban area in Denmark?
Hook is not riveting (it's in the number one position for many things so why pick a number two); there's plenty of more interesting facts to choose from, for example:
ALT1 ...that Aarhus (pictured) became Århus in 1948 and in 2010 it became Aarhus again?
ALT2 ...that, in 1944, a precision bombing raid on the Gestapo headquarters in Aarhus (pictured) destroyed all their files?
ALT3 ...that Aarhus (pictured) in the north of Denmark has an Eastern-inspired bazaar?

Template:Ping Template:U has got some interesting hooks. Would you consider any of those? Vensatry (ping) 17:17, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
