A fact from The Big Apple (Waitomo) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 September 2023 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that there is a 7.5-metre-tall (25 ft) statue of an apple(pictured) in Waitomo, New Zealand?

... New enough, long enough, hook is interesting, in the article and followed by a citation to a reference containing hook fact. Regarding rest of article, I don't have access to the most sources but AGF on that as otherwise apperas okay. Image is clear and free, and a QPQ has been provided.

I strenuously doubt that a sculpted apple 7.5 metres tall (and, from the picture, about that big across) could house "four dining areas with a capacity of 500 people." Are these facilities in another building nearby? The article certainly doesn't say so.
