Divisional Railway Hospital, Golden Rock

 * ... that the Railway hospital is the oldest one established in 1927 much before the zonal hospital?

 * Comment Review under way. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 14:38, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Review Symbol question.svg New enough, long enough, timely nominated. Nominator has one DYK so no QPQ required. No image involved.  No close paraphrasing or WP:Copyvio. Earwig is clear.
 * The link to one of the hook facts (concerning the zonal hospital) is not working, so I could not verify it. In any event, I think the hook is not very interesting, and as phrased ("the oldest one" – which? what?) is muddled.  The phrase "much before" is WP:Peacock phrasing considering the temporal span is a few months.  IMO, we need a better hook.  I also have a concern that one of the figures (1,000,000) used in the article may be wrong, and could not verify it.  The figure had an odd configuration as originally put into the article ("1,00,000"), so that needs to be verified. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 17:18, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Review Symbol question.svg All issues above addressed.  Every paragraph and hook are properly cited.  However, the hook is still poorly worded. IMO
 * Would be better said as: "* ... that the oldest Railway hospital was established in 1927 before the zonal hospital?" IMO.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 11:27, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * *ALT1: "* ... that the oldest Railway hospital was established in 1927 before the zonal hospital?"
 * *ALT2: "* ... that the oldest Railway hospital was established in 1927 by then South Indian Railway Company?"
 * Any thoughts? --βα£α(ᶀᶅᶖᵵᵶ) 14:55, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

Pulled from Prep6 after discussion at WT:DYK. Hook as written is not correct. Fram (talk) 11:16, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Fram Still is the oldest Indian railway divisional hospital and that continues to be sourced.  If the source is wrong I wouldn't know, and you might want to give us some guidance in that regard.   If you have another hook, propose it.  There was no issue with the WP:QPQ.  Nominator had one prior WP:DYK.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 13:54, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Not only did the hook say nothing about first "Indian" Railway Hospital, before 1927 there were Railway Hospitals in e.g. Kharagpur, Bhusavai and Lallaguda. Fram (talk) 14:49, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
 * See e.g. Winifred Spicer, who received the 1925 Kaiser-I-hind Medal for her work at the Ajmer Railway Hospital. Fram (talk) 15:04, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
 * ALT3 ... that the Divisional Railway Hospital, Golden Rock was established in 1927 by the then South Indian Railway Company to treat active and retired railroad employees and their families?
