  • The expansion is new, long enough. The part about him being halfback is cited to a database with clear instructions. There is no citation for him being an All-American baseball player. The content is interesting. The hook is 207 characters, so is longer than 200. Please fix the problems then submit again. Blue Rasberry (talk) 17:25, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Sourcing has been fixed for the All-American status in baseball. As for hook length, it comes out at 155 characters without the "(pictured" verbiage which doesn't count. Even with that, it's 166 characters. Not sure how you came up with 207 characters. Cbl62 (talk) 20:13, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
I must have miscounted! The hook is the right length and now the article is properly cited. Blue Rasberry (talk) 20:17, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
