Interesting subject, size and date check out, hook referenced and verified, Earwig check indicates copyplag issues unlikely. It's too bad there isn't anything about his later life; is he still alive? @Kosack: This just needs a QPQ review and this will be good to go. - The Bushranger One ping only 22:52, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- @The Bushranger: Hi, thanks for the review. I'm sure I remember a different footballer passing away around six months ago where news sources claimed he was the last surviving player to have played in the Football League pre-war, so I'm fairly sure Kane is no longer alive. I've added a QPQ review now. Kosack (talk) 07:09, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
- Our encyclopedia for an obit! Anyway, this should now be good to go.
