    • Comment: Some problems. 1. alt1 kind of has an unsureness is completely correct. A google search shows me that it's the fastest but also not but also is. Personally I think alt1 is correct but It's weird. Though the main problem is that none of these hooks are in the main article but rather in the lead. If nobody puts them in the article then I'll have to add it myself. Ignore this.

Improved to Good Article status by Sturmvogel 66 (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 01:57, 18 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Soviet submarine K-222; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • Hi Onegreatjoke, review follows: recently promoted to GA, well cited, written, free from copyvio. I'm not seeing ALT0 in the source (or explicitly stated in the article body). Could you quote where the source says that and add a mention in the main article. What do you mean about AL1 saying that " it's the fastest but also not but also is"? Otherwise, a qpq has been conducted and this seems to meet the rest of the DYKCRIT. Eddie891 Talk Work 19:21, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
@Eddie891: I don't have access to these sources so I'm just AGFing the whole thing. We can just run this without Alt0 since i'm not sure how to comfortably add it in the article and I think alt1 is a good enough hook. Also don't worry about the comment, it's not an issue anymore.
