General: Article is new enough and long enough

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Interesting, and timely. Before the redirect there were 944 characters, now 5700. I have not come across one that came from a redirect. So the 4000+ characters since the 7th of December is a qualifier. The article is a good read. The hook is supported, the article has inline citations and no plagiarism. Well done!

Bruxton, the Packers will be playing on January 22 or 23 in the playoffs. If would be fun to have this hook on the main page the day of the game. Would you approve this being moved to the special occasion holding area? The exact date will be determined this weekend after the first round of the playoffs. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 15:39, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Gonzo fan2007: A great suggestion. And it is a home game, making it likely that there will be a leap and the announcers will reference it, and people will go to Wiki. Great idea. Bruxton (talk) 16:08, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Bruxton, thanks. Should I move it down to the special occasion holding area. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:35, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I went ahead and moved it. I will clarify the date after this weekend's games when the game days get decided. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:28, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
