Wan King Path[edit]

Wan King Path sign

  • ... that there are a number of banks along the Wan King Path (sign pictured)?

  • Barely made it over the 1,500 characters mark. Definitely new enough. It's good to go. However, I think the hook should be changed. I'd recommend to change the hook to the following ALT:

ALT1 ... that there are a number of cafes and restaurants along the Wan King Path (sign pictured)?

The reason why is because the source doesn't phrase banks the way the hook has it phrased. As far as I can see, it is just a list of banks and you placed it in a context. Anyhow, the ALT1 hook I think will make more of an impact since people are generally more interested about a cafe or a restaurant rather than a bank. The context of the source phrases it in the way it should be phrased in the article. This is just my opinion. Let me know. Thanks, Étienne Dolet (talk) 00:41, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

GTG with ALT1. Long enough. New enough. Source reliably cited. Étienne Dolet (talk) 17:19, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Those are two of the least interesting hooks I've ever seen. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 20:12, 10 March 2014 (UTC)
ALT2 ... that the Wan King Path (sign pictured) was listed as one of the 100 rudest place names in the world? MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 03:51, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
That's good. I do like that one better. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 22:52, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
Just need someone to verify ALT2. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 21:12, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
  • ALT2 is stated in the article and sourced online. — Maile (talk) 11:37, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
