Article elevated to GA status today. It is long enough, no copyvio, NPOV, and hooks are both interesting and correctly cited to RS. No image. Chetsford (talk) 21:51, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't find either hook hooky. I have no idea what Ninian Park is. When I looked at the article, the first thing that struck me was that the team used it for 99 years. To me, that's much hookier. Yoninah (talk) 19:54, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: so perhaps, Ninian Park was the home stadium of Cardiff City F.C. for 99 years? Kosack (talk) 20:30, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- @Kosack: Better. Do you want to combine some hooks?
