Not quite. It should be ALT0b: ... that the A1206 bridge (pictured) is the sixth to be built over the West India Docks entrance? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:27, 19 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol redirect vote 4.svg ALT0b ready for full review. Yoninah (talk) 01:18, 21 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol voting keep.svg This article is a fivefold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The image is appropriately licensed, the hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues (Earwig is unavailable). Approving ALT0b. A QPQ has been done.

  • Symbol question.svg Hi, I came by to promote this, and it really is a stunning image, but the hook is not that hooky. Perhaps slipping in "Isle of Dogs" would help things? Yoninah (talk) 22:33, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
I've slipped in the Isle of Dogs, and let me tell you, the smell never came out of my clothes so I just had to throw them away. EEng 17:22, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

These road articles can be quite a challenge (unless of course they connect Trump to Russia or one of his resorts to Moscow). How about
ALT1 ... that many names of side roads and buildings along the A1206 (bridge pictured) relate to the Isle of Dogs' historic connection with the shipping industry?

ALT1a ... that the names of several side roads and buildings along the A1206 (bridge pictured) relate to the Isle of Dogs' historic connection with the shipping industry?
