- New enough and long enough. Three phrases in the lead were closely paraphrased, and I changed them, so there's no close paraphrasing problems now. The information on indiagate.org was difficult to understand--perhaps something was lost in translation? The article appears neutral and its sources are sufficient. The photo doesn't have any license issues.
The fact in the hook is incorrect. One of the sources you cited, 5 Things Every Indian Needs to Know about the Amar Jawan Jyoti, states that the fire in only one of the urns burns year-round. The other urns are lit on special occasions. Here are two other hooks I propose (the second is just because I thought it was an interesting fact). What do you think of these?

- ALT 1: ...that fire has been burning continuously since 1971 in an urn at the Indian memorial Amar Jawan Jyoti (pictured)?
- ALT 2: ...that the person responsible for ensuring a flame is continuously lit at Amar Jawan Jyoti lives in a room inside the nearby India Gate?
I can't approve these hooks, because I proposed them. They need a new reviewer or approval by the original author (I think). Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 19:40, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
This article is new enough and long enough. The image is suitably licensed and I am approving ALT1, because I cannot access the source for ALT2. The article is neutral, Earwig was clear and I detected no policy issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:29, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
