... that the former Rozelle–Darling Harbour Goods Line features the largest brick railway viaduct in New South Wales?

Comment: Since opening this nomination, I have moved the page from Rozelle–Darling Harbour railway line to Rozelle–Darling Harbour Goods Line. The former title reflected general – but not mandatory – convention on articles for Australian railway lines, while the latter reflects the line's common name. As such, this nomination links to what is now a redirect, while the hook itself links to what is now the article's primary title. The article remains the same; it has simply been moved on relatively minor technical grounds. Will Thorpe (talk) 07:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

@Willthorpe: Redirects are not allowed on the main page and I'm not quite sure what your comment's trying to say, could you fix the link?--Laun chba ller 16:07, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Launchballer The subject of the nomination is the main page, not the redirect. The title of the article (Rozelle-Darling Harbour railway line) reflects Wikipedia convention on the naming of rail lines in Australia, while the hook and article body (Rozelle-Darling Harbour Goods Line) reflects its common name. Happy to amend if necessary. Cheers, Will Thorpe (talk) 01:40, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

I’ve actually now requested the article be moved to its common name, which is what is used in the nomination. Cheers, Will Thorpe (talk) 01:57, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

New enough, long enough, interesting, no copyright problems, hook cited on article, all good. The light is now green. JuniperChill (talk) 21:39, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

@Willthorpe and JuniperChill:

iiiiii'm really not sure I'd agree that the hook is interesting? "Largest brick railway viaduct in New South Wales" doesn't seem to leave the reader wanting to know more. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 04:55, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

I was also thinking about it being converted to a light rail line, but that has also occured in Manchester so i don't consider that interesting. In fact, many UK light rail/tram systems actually used part of a former railway line. I also couldn't find anything else in the article that I consider interesting. I have interests in railway related stuff. JuniperChill (talk) 09:55, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

So do I. Biased as I am, I think it's alright – 'largest in NSW' – it's certainly in a niche-ish area, but then so are most other DYKs more or less. Will Thorpe (talk) 15:34, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand? Intrigue means curiosity. I don't think "Largest in NSW" is going to make people curious enough to click through to the article. We run plenty of niche DYKs, some of which are intriguing to people outside of the niche and some of which aren't. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 22:00, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
