Created/expanded by KAVEBEAR (talk). Self-nominated at 04:09, 8 December 2020 (UTC).[reply]

? Article is long enough (3057 characters), is 5x expanded according to DYK check, nominated in time (expansion started 8 December, nominated on same day), and article is generally in policy. One issue is the sentence that "Professionally, he played in 34 games over three seasons for the Chicago Cardinals from 1934 to 1936 and the Los Angeles Bulldogs (AFL) in 1937"- the source [1] only mentions his Cardinals appearances, please can you add a source for his 1937 LA Bulldogs appearances?

Added source mentioning Bulldogs. KAVEBEAR (talk) 18:45, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

? The hooks are short enough, interesting and well cited, however can we use "American football player" rather than "football player" in the hooks? Football can mean NFL, soccer, or Australian Rules player, depending which but of the world you live in. Prefer ALT0, as it's shorter (and by definition, the daughter of a prince is a princess)

Changed. KAVEBEAR (talk) 18:45, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Y QPQ done- a 7 month old QPQ is acceptable, as I can see it's not been used before
Overall, just a couple of things to fix, then I can approve this nomination. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:25, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
