    General: Article is new enough and long enough
    Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
    Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
    QPQ: Done.

    Overall: Articles are long enough. Agree that we can accept these as within the timeframe. Copyvio tool finds no issues. Not keen on "first" hooks, and noting that Guinness is not generally considered a reliable source, but given that we are emphasizing her official recognition rather than making the claim ourselves I think it's fine under WP:PRIMARY. Should be good to go.   Chris Woodrich (talk) 22:04, 5 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

    • @Beejamjam, Launchballer, and Crisco 1492: Pulled this from queue. I'm seeing whole sentences that appear lifted from sources. For example, in TRUK, "transmasculine team [...] played against the Dulwich Hamlet F.C. Supporters Team, also at Champion Hill with 500 supporters watching." is highly similar to "... transmasculine team played against the Dulwich Hamlet FC Supporters Team. This match again took place at Champion Hill in London with over 500 supporters watching ..." from the source. There are several more in both articles, which makes me suspect even the phrases that aren't being highlighted in Earwig could be closely paraphrased.

      Jesus. Will get on this when I've slept.--Launchballer 23:53, 18 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
      Oh, gosh. I was of the belief that I wasn't closely paraphrasing, and was perhaps overconfident that I could properly use the info in a new way, but clearly took my eye off the ball. I will be properly employing the note-taking strategy from now on, which I've previously used only patchily. I'll come around and fix it when I can. Beejamjam (talk) 00:03, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
      On second thought, having had a look over both articles and checking for any close paraphrasing, I could only find very scant close aside from the quote mentioned, most of it falling (I believe) under WP:LIMITED. I'd of course encourage a third opinion on that front. For avoidance of doubt, I've rephrased a few sentences including the one quoted. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to get this reinstated for DYK, even though I did not nominate it myself. Beejamjam (talk) 01:16, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
      Thanks for getting started on those, Beejamjam. I'm still seeing pretty long phrases highlighted in the reports for Clark and TRUK, which show exact matches with the source, and comparing the other sources shows more matches. Keep in mind that there could be improper paraphrasing even in the unhighlighted sections which the tool can't detect. TechnoSquirrel69 (talk) 05:24, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
    • I've rewritten both @TechnoSquirrel69:, how are they looking now?--Launchballer 08:20, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
      Very nicely done, Launchballer! The articles continue to be long enough, neutral, and reliably sourced. No further copyright or text–source integrity issues turn up with some spot-checks. I'll defer to Crisco's review for the other aspects and restore the green checkmark: . TechnoSquirrel69 (talk) 23:04, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
