  • @Dudhhr and Onegreatjoke: I really like the idea behind this DYK, but the hook is not quite right, especially with the picture. The way it is worded right now, it implies that the trams appearing in the picture re-entered service after 50 years, but the article makes it clear that is not the case. I'm not a tram expert, but the trams themselves also look newer than 50 years old. There may be several ways to fix this while still keeping the option open to use the picture (e.g., "tram services in Olsztyn (pictured)...restarted"). Could you please propose some alternative wordings? (After further consideration, I think the wording needs to be adjusted, regardless of whether or not the image is used.) Cielquiparle (talk) 08:27, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
@Dudhhr and Onegreatjoke: Better. But how about slightly shorter? If you give all the information in the hook, no one clicks through to find out more. So, for example:
  • ALT1a: ... that tram service in Olsztyn (pictured) restarted after no trams had operated in the city for more than fifty years?
Note: Now I can't approve my own ALT hook, etc., either, so would appreciate it if @Onegreatjoke: or another reviewer could weigh in. Thanks. Cielquiparle (talk) 15:31, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
Could someone please review/approve just the ALT hooks? Thanks! Cielquiparle (talk) 12:58, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
@Cielquiparle: you can approve your own hook if it's just a rewording or shortening of someone else's hook; unless it introduces a new fact that requires verification, you're totally fine to put your stamp on ALT1a. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 07:30, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
I'll just approve this again once more. Onegreatjoke (talk) 20:52, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
