  • ... that the design of Gants Hill tube station concourse (pictured) was inspired by stations on the Moscow Metro? Source: During the 1930s the London Passenger Transport Board had provided advice on the construction of the Moscow Metro and an internal report in 1935 by the Underground's engineers on the Russian capital's system led to the decision to construct a station in London to a similar design.Bruce, J Graeme; Croome, Desmond F (2006) [1996].

Improved to Good Article status by Vincent60030 (talk). Self-nominated at 06:20, 6 November 2018 (UTC).

  • Article is new enough (recent GA), long enough, and well referenced. Hook is interesting and supported with reliable offline sources, accepted AGF. No copyvio detected. However, the QPQ appears to be invalid, as it was already used for Template:Did you know nominations/Highgate tube station three years ago. Please provide a new QPQ review. Also, I've removed the second nomination for Moscow Metro in the template as that article is not eligible for DYK. -Zanhe (talk) 19:56, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
    • Zanhe Actually I haven’t used any QPQs yet because I have less than 5 DYK credits so I have actually placed that in just for reference purposes. Thanks VKZYLUFan (talk) (Mind the Gap!) 03:34, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
  • Yes, you've only got 3 DTK credits so far, but it was a bit misleading when you added a used QPQ credit. I've crossed out the QPQ and changed it to "not required". This is good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 04:04, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
