Christchurch Wastewater Treatment Plant
- ... that Christchurch smells? Source: Visitors don't come, residents need to check the wind direction before hanging out washing and one couple can't enjoy the $8000 deck they've installed. Kurt Bayer meets locals suffering from a powerful, sickening stench. And further: "But it's not just the people of Bromley who are suffering. Sister eastern suburbs Aranui, Linwood, South New Brighton, Southshore, Dallington and on some days – depending on the prevailing winds – people right across the sprawling Garden City are all wrinkling their noses."

- Comment: Well, there are photos available and I've nominated one – just in case. But if this hook is accepted, it would take the quirky spot (i.e. the last one; without a photo).

Article is new and of requisite length, fully cited, neutral and free of paraphrasing. I can't help thinking though, that perhaps "New Zealand" should be included in the hook, given that there are quite a few Christchurches? Gatoclass (talk) 04:39, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- Gatoclass, thanks for the review – it's much appreciated. My thinking is that by leaving off the country, it adds to the intrigue. Yes, we'd normally include the country but for the quirky hook, I suggest that we should be a bit looser in our approach (and we very often are). Part of what makes the hook great, in my view, is that it's so short. What do you reckon? Schwede66 07:48, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
