Frank Macey, 1925 FA Charity Shield, 1926 FA Charity Shield[edit]

Created by Struway2 (talk). Self nominated at 10:07, 21 November 2013 (UTC).

  • Comment, hopefully to make it easier for the reviewer.
  • In Frank Macey, the hook fact is in the lead.
  • In the Charity Shield articles, Macey's 2 of the Amateurs' 6 goals in that year's match is in the lead. For 1925, his 1926 achievement is in the last line of the article. For 1926, his 1925 achievement is in the 2nd para of the Match summary section.
  • In each case, the fact is referenced by a match report from an offline contemporary newspaper and, for convenience, an online, accurate, but not provably reliable source. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 12:30, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
  • Full review needed of hook and all three articles. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:29, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
  • All three article are appropriately reference inline to a reliable online source. All three were created on 21 November, the date of nomination, and are plenty long enough for DYK purposes (and most other purposes!) They are well written, and the hook is interesting enough. The vast majority of references are offline, but I carried out checks on the online sources (most of which are statistics based anyway) and they reveal no evidence of copyvio or close paraphrasing. Good to go. Harrias talk 14:51, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
