MetroHero

  • ... that MetroHero used to let riders know whenever the Washington Metro caught on fire? Source: The GW Hatchet: "... MetroHero also scours Twitter for WMATA notifications and messages on train delays, fires and other travel slowdowns, then displays the full tweets within the app under the station in mention."

    • Comment: QPQ not required, second DYK nom

Moved to mainspace by PlanetJuice (talk). Self-nominated at 00:42, 7 July 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/MetroHero; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • I will review. Cielquiparle (talk) 00:30, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
  • Interesting article. New enough (submitted within one day of creation), long enough (6314 characters), with inline citations, no evidence of close paraphrasing, neutrally written. QPQ is not required. Hook is compelling (made me click) and verified. It was originally sourced to a student newspaper, which is "ok" but I added another Washington Post article as an additional source. (The link should work if you log in to Wikipedia Library first, then click on it. Otherwise, just search on Wikipedia Library for "metrohero" and "fire" and it should be the first result.)
