Size, date check out. QPQ not needed as this isn't a self nomination. Hook is not present in the article. Also references need to be properly formatted before this gets into the main page. —Vensatry (ping) 19:35, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
- All DYK nominations now need a QPQ review (change of rules). The rules do not demand any particular format for the references. I have already run Reflinks over the article, but I see 2 bare urls have appeared since then and I will reformat those ones. The club was founded in 1860 and that is cited. Simple arithmetic gives us over 150 years. I think the inline citations for the original hook are sufficient. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:07, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, I didn't see the QPQ being done already. Thanks for notifying about the change of rule. As for the hook, it's a rule that it must be stated in the article followed by an inline citation. Although, there is no definition of a particular format, the references in this article are almost totally incomplete. You use only the title parameter that too is duplicated in some references. A clean up is definitely needed before this nom gets approved. —Vensatry (ping) 17:11, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset: Vensatry and I are interpreting the DYK rules differently. Please could you adjudicate, and tell me what, if anything, I need to do to this hook/article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:24, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

- References can be min filled with Reflinks (title and url) as per D3, but I've always preferred at least a title, url and publisher so I've fixed that. I prefer ALT1 over the original hook, which is stated and cited via WP:CALC. The first hook sounds a bit too promotional for my liking. The players did play for the club but I wouldn't go as far as to say they were 'nurtured'. I'll leave this for Vensatry though, if they'd care to finish this review.

New reviewer needed to finish the review; previous reviewer has not returned after over a month. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:52, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
