It was primarily purchased with the aim of maintaining the local line Split - Stari Grad, which is why it was named after the famous Hvar poet Petar Hektorović. Today, it mainly maintains the Split - Vis line.

• Article is long enough, and well sourced throughout without copyvio. Article is new enough (DYK submitted 5 days after creation). All three hooks are interesting; I thinkALT1 is the most interesting and eye-catching, but personally, I would replace "online post" with "online memorial" to better characterize what the resident wrote. All hook sources are reliable. All in all, there's nothing else to comment on regarding the article.@ThaesOfereode: let me know what you think of replacing "post" with "memorial," then I'll approve it either way.Kimikel (talk) 20:28, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

• Hi@Kimikel: "Online memorial" works great, as would "onlinein memoriam"; I think either would be a better descriptor than just "post", which is sort of vague. Thanks for reviewing!ThaesOfereode (talk) 23:38, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
  • ApprovingALT1. I went ahead and made the discussed edit, I hope that's fine. Thank you for the quality submission!Kimikel (talk) 02:52, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
