Moved to mainspace by S5A-0043 (talk). Self-nominated at 07:17, 29 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Line 19 (Wuhan Metro); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Article is good; long enough, new enough, no copyvio, good prose, proper refers. QPQ done. I like the main hook more than I like the ALT1. ALT1 lacks context I think; I don't know how fast the other lines are so it's hard to judge how impressive this is. Maybe needs a reword to emphasize speed. For the main hook, my concern is the wording implies there was no knowledge about when the line would open until a day before the opening, but the sources don't seem to support that. Both seem to suggest an announcement the day prior, but maybe they're just repeating claims that they had made previously about the opening date. E.g. they announced the opening date multiple times before, and made a last confirmation announcement a day before. To be clear, I trust that you're probably right but just need clearer confirmation from a source. toobigtokale (talk) 03:19, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Toobigtokale actually I feel I kind of not thought through & jumped the gun on this nomination, and (slightly embarrassingly) regretted this nomination the week after I made it but forgot to comment here. I thought over it and both hooks aren't exactly good. Hence I'd like to withdraw this nomination. Thank you for the review nonetheless and apologies. S5A-0043^Talk 14:31, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
