Interleague play (NPB)

[edit]

Created by Torsodog (talk). Self-nominated at 21:14, 10 October 2017 (UTC).

  • The article is new, long enough, well referenced and neutral. I couldn't see any close paraphrasing from the English sources. Regarding the hooks, the original hook seems to be incorrect: the article says interleague play was introduced in the 2005 season, not 2004. I find the ALT1 hook more interesting (as someone who knows nothing about Japanese baseball) and it is supported by an inline citation – the source is in Japanese but it's fairly easy to verify from the numbers and logos. Also, Torsodog, I see it has been some years since you last had an article at DYK, but the rules changed a while ago so that every nominator with more than 5 DYK credits has to review an article for every new article they nominate (a "QPQ review"). If you aren't feeling confident with reviewing DYK nominations, there is a reviewing guide here which may help. 97198 (talk) 11:59, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
  • Brilliant. QPQ is done so ALT1 is good to go. Striking the original hook per my comments above since it appears to be incorrect. 97198 (talk) 05:14, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
