Shanghai Trolleybus Route 20
Shanghai Trolleybus Route 20
- ... that an estimated 9 of every 10 residents of Shanghai have ridden the city's trolleybus route 20 (fleet bus pictured)? Source: https://baijiahao.baidu.com/s?id=1628710844871870842&wfr=spider&for=pc (translation of title: Route 20, which 9 out of 10 Shanghai residents have ridden, is getting a major upgrade!)
- ALT1: ... that in the 1980s, Shanghai Trolleybus Route 20 was so popular that it required nearly 65 buses running per day and a frequency of 30 seconds between buses? Source: https://www.jfdaily.com/sgh/detail?id=683630 (上世纪八十年代中期20路公交车高峰时期 每班车间隔仅仅有30秒时间 18米长的铰接式20路多达65部, translation: During the peak time of trolleybus route 20 in the 1980s, the frequency between buses is only 30 seconds, and there were as many as 65 18-meter articulated buses running on the route)

Moved to mainspace by SBS6577P (talk). Self-nominated at 13:36, 5 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Shanghai Trolleybus Route 20; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Interesting hook and good article, meets eligibly and length requirements. Generally well-sourced, but some outstanding citations needed. Would add the hook fact into the body of the article. Edited the hook for conciseness.
- Addressed the sourcing issues. Hook fact is already in the 2nd paragraph of the article. SBS6577P (talk) 00:58, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
- Also since someone’s probably gonna ask about the revert of Baijiahao sources earlier, Imma just put the clarification here. While Baijiahao is considered as a UGC (as Rastintion stated), in this case the 2 sources are published by local media outlets that can be considered reliable (source 2 in particular is published by the same organization as the one that wrote source 15). I would’ve loved to find the original web pages that are not on Baijiahao but unfortunately I can’t. I checked in on RSN previously, someone replied that “As far as I understand Baidu Baijiahao is kind of a blog platform. If a news agency or a local municipality publishes something on such a platform, we can use it, just as we allow links to youtube videos posted in the official channels of reliable sources”, so I just inserted them in.
