Hook

• Length, format, content rules: wctaiwan (talk) 04:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
• Source: Result in 2000 Paralympics not cited. Others seem fine. wctaiwan (talk) 04:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
• Interest: The focus of interest is on the unlikely combination of events, I presume. Could you check my ALT1?
• Image suitability, if applicable: I suppose the image can't be brightened a bit, can it? Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
• ALT hooks, if proposed: ALT1 ... that three-time paralympian Amanda Fraser (pictured) has won medals in not only track and field, but in swimming? Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Article

• Length: Long enough. I took the stub tags off the page, but I haven't touched the stub ratings as assessed by WikiProjects. Perhpas someone more experienced can help? wctaiwan (talk) 04:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
• Vintage: Obviously way older than 5 days now, but it was expanded less than 5 days before the nomination. wctaiwan (talk) 04:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
• Sourcing (V, RS, BLP): Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

• Plagiarism/close paraphrasing: Spot checks were good. Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
• Copyvio: Image fine. Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
• Obvious faults in prose, structure, formatting: Good. I made a few minor corrections. Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Comments/discussion: CoI declaration: I know the nominator through WikiMedia Australia. Tony (talk) 13:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

ALT1 doesnt have the same clear meaning. "track and field" is an umbrella term which includes both track and field events, so "not only track and field, but in swimming" only clearly implies medals in two disciplines (one medal in track or field and another medal in swimming). It is more interesting that she has medals in three disciplines (medals in track, medals in field, and medals in swimming). John Vandenberg ^(chat) 22:41, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

The image has been brightened. --John Vandenberg ^(chat) 06:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Needs a ref for 2000 Paralympics, reassessment by relevant WikiProjects. Not sure if it's still eligible at this point (vintage). wctaiwan (talk) 04:08, 9 August 2011 (UTC) (first-time reviewer)

There is a newspaper ref for the 2000 Paralympics and the profile in the external links provides authoritative online verification of the medal results. I am not familiar with any new sourcing requirements for DYK and will be happy to add more refs if necessary. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 11:24, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Right, I just thought they'd need to be cited inline (which Steven has since done). Thanks for the clarification. wctaiwan (talk) 12:57, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Still allowed. Tick based on previous review. Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:56, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
