The result of the move request was: Not moved. The prevailing opinion is that GhostRider should continue to redirect to Ghost Rider the disambiguation page, as PascalCase is not sufficient a disambiguator. ( non-admin closure) — Amakuru ( talk) 12:53, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
GhostRider (roller coaster) → GhostRider – unnecessary disambiguation, the latter redirects to the former 82.132.224.142 ( talk) 09:28, 4 December 2013 (UTC)

General: Article is new enough and long enough |

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation |

QPQ: Done. |
Overall:
Both of the hooks are cited to reliable sources and interesting enough. ALT1 is okay, though I've proposed a shorter version (ALT2). My concern with the primary hook is twofold. First, the article and hook link to
West Coast of the United States, but neither the cited source, nor
Knott's itself explicitly limits itself to the United States. If this hook is used, it should be edited and cited to a source clarifying if the claim only applies to the United States, or to Canada as well. Also, the source is from 1999, which is over two decades ago. While Knott's website still makes the claim, it would be better to have a more recent source, since this is a potentially dated claim. --
