 * Symbol confirmed.svg Nice one, a really interesting article. However, since the cistern is non-existent now, I'd suggest reformatting the hook like this: "that a football stadium (pictured) in Istanbul, once was a Byzantine open-sky water reservoir containing 250-300 million liters of water, known as the Cistern of Aetius in Constantinople?" Good to go with either hook. Diego Grez (talk) 18:16, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
