2016 Dwars door Vlaanderen

Created by Relentlessly (talk). Self-nominated at 22:41, 23 March 2016 (UTC).

  • Article is new, created four days ago. Article is long enough, easily exceeding 1,500 characters. The article is neutral and uses inline citations (the prose and source variation aren't great, but definitely not an issue). The first hook is short enough and definitely interesting. Simply the fact that the race still took place is already surprising. Minor typo fixed. Quid pro quo is done - I see no issues here.

  • Symbol question.svg I find the hooks confusing rather than hooky. With a few extra words, you could explain why they had to withdraw. Yoninah (talk) 19:15, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
Thanks, Template:U; I spent some time trying to work out how to phrase it. How about
What do you think? Relentlessly (talk) 08:01, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
I like ALT3. ALT4 restricts it to Movistar, whereas the biggest impact was on Giant, who had to pull out entirely. Template:U, are you happy with ALT3? Relentlessly (talk) 11:15, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg I like ALT3 - I think it works really well as the Brussels attacks are still the "punch". All fine by me :) ~Mable (chat) 12:09, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
