  • I will review this shortly. Yue🌙 01:35, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - Neither hook is stated in the article.
  • Interesting: No - See comment below.
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Both sources are cited in the article, but neither hook is stated. ALT0 is interesting but could use a bit more context, namely what kind of video game is it and what kind of stations? I suggest this rewording to the nominator and promoter:

... that in the simulation video game Overcrowd: A Commute 'Em Up, the player needs to manage everything from the construction of train stations to dumping trash cans?

ALT0 is interesting because the latter activity, dumping trash, is not typically an enjoyably activity and so it would be odd to put it in a video game that is meant to entertain. ALT1 seems quite weak to me in comparison, as none of the listed items are unusual for actual train stations to have.

As soon as ALT0 is stated in the article, I will approve that hook for this nomination. Yue🌙 02:21, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

  • @Yue: thanks for the review; I agree that ALT0 is more interesting and have added the fact near the bottom of the "Gameplay" section. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 02:50, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
