Güzide Alçu[edit]

  • ... that the TFF referred Güzide Alçu and her two teammates to its Disciplinary Board because the three displayed V sign after their team won a playoff match by 24-0 that was interpreted as insulting?

  • Article is new enough, long enough, and free from POV issues or copyright problems. Citations are clear and appropriate (I can't read Turkish but I can muddle through with Google translate and AGF). The content of the hook is interesting but I think it could be phrased more clearly. Two issues in particular: I know it's because of character count limitations, but "TFF" isn't clear to anyone unfamiliar with football; I think that needs to be un-piped if it's going to stay in there. Second, the way the hook is currently written makes it looks like the playoff match was interpreted as insulting, not the V sign. ♠PMC(talk) 16:04, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

  • Still think it would be better saying Turkish Football Federation. You've got plenty of characters before you hit 200, so it won't put you over. It's more clear for a general audience. ♠PMC(talk) 03:21, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
