A QPQ review of Template:Did you know nominations/The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in French Polynesia was performed for this nomination. Automatically reviewed by DYKReviewBot. This is not a substitute for a human review. Please report any issues with the bot. --DYKReviewBot (report bugs) 20:18, 26 August 2016 (UTC) The article is well sourced, long and new enough. The hook is interesting and long enough with a citation immediately coming after it. I see no problem with the article. All the sources are in Turkish, can you find any english reliable sources regarding this title? By the way, I think the hook wording needs to be changed to "... the installation of the TEDES traffic enforcement system ?" --Mhhossein talk 04:43, 28 August 2016 (UTC) ALT1:... that the number of traffic collisions in Gaziantep, Turkey, decreased by about 40% within two months from the installation of the TEDES traffic enforcement system? @Mhhossein: Thank you for your review. I've added an English-language reference to the article, and provided ALT1 in accordance with your proposal. CeeGee 05:34, 28 August 2016 (UTC) I suggest the following hook: ALT2:... that the number of traffic collisions in Gaziantep, Turkey, decreased by about 40% within two months after the installation of TEDES? I see no further problem. Good to go with ALT2. --Mhhossein talk 12:04, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Reopened. The hook makes a claim that is unsubstantiated by the article. It doesn't cover the city as a whole, as implied by the hook, it covers just those areas where TEDES has been installed. Please fix the hook before renominating. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:31, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

• @Rambling Man: Please check whether the following ALT3 I supply is conform with your claim. Thanks. CeeGee 06:10, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

• ALT3: ... that the number of traffic collisions at the TEDES-monitored intersections and fast lanes in Gaziantep, Turkey, declined by about 40% within two months from its installation?

• ALT4: ... that the number of traffic collisions at TEDES-monitored sites in Gaziantep, Turkey, declined by about 40% within weeks of installation?

CeeGee I took the liberty of trimming ALT3 a bit (now reposted as ALT4), let me know if you have any objections). Gatoclass (talk 10:00, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

• Thanks. However, I hope no one objects the change from "two months" to "weeks". Because the article says so. CeeGee 10:55, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Two months is only a few weeks, so I wouldn't think so :) Gatoclass (talk) 12:23, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

• ALTS 3 and 4 ready for re-review. Gatoclass (talk) 17:58, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

• This article is new enough and long enough. Going for ALT3 Because that agrees better with the source, which is dated July 2, the system having been implemented mid-April. The article is neutral and I was unable to consider policy issues as the sources are in Turkish. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:03, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
