• ... that the Forresters Manuscript includes the earliest known versions of four Robin Hood ballads?

• Comment: Hook is uncited within article, wanted to create DYKnom anyways and ping K9feline2 in the process.

• This article is woefully undersourced. The "Contents" section is unsourced, as is the "Differences between Forresters and the broadsides" section, which therefore appears to be original research. Of the 8 sources in the article, 4 of them are the same primary source (the book itself). @K9feline2 and A. C. Santacruz: It has been 11 days since this was nominated and no sourcing improvements made, and this article fails verifiability, and so the following DYK rule applies: Nominations should be rejected if an inspection reveals that they are not based on reliable sources.
