... that the elevated High Line railway viaduct in New York City, now a linear park, was originally constructed to avoid trains running in nearby streets? - Reviewed: Murata Jukō
- Comment: Several other users, such as Beyond My Ken, have worked on this article significantly. I nominated the article for GA and am the editor who added the most text to the page. Also, the original hook said "over 5 million" instead of "about 5 million".
- ALT1:
Improved to Good Article status by Epicgenius (talk). Nominated by Epicgenius (talk) at 14:44, 27 October 2014 (UTC).
- Just as a very quick comment, the article and source say that the park gets "nearly 5 million annual visitors", whereas the hook says "over 5 million visitors". Might want to alter that. (Great article, and a great park!) -LÒÓkingYourBest(Talk|Edits) 19:13, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you for your comments. I fixed that. Epicgenius (talk) 20:36, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
- I suggest avoiding ALT1. Readers don't need an explanation of why elevated railways are elevated. EEng (talk) 05:51, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- OK. I guess I will go with the main hook. I meant to say something about one nearby street being called Death Avenue, but then the hook would be too long. Epicgenius (talk) 06:30, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- We could save it for Halloween 2015. EEng (talk) 11:36, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- Argh! I just missed putting that hook up in time for this Halloween. Maybe we could... Epicgenius (talk) 14:30, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Length, GA, DYK Check, cited hook all good. Given we're removed the fun text ALT, I suggest going with the original hook. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:16, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
