Albert Shepherd[edit]

5x expanded by Kosack (talk). Self-nominated at 12:50, 18 April 2018 (UTC).

  • Date and length fine. Hook is cited inline in article, I assume you'd like to hold this for the FA Cup Final on the 19th of May? No close paraphrasing, just needs the QPQ @Kosack: then I can pass it. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 22:42, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
  • @The C of E: Thanks for the review, in all honesty I hadn't considered holding for the final but that seems like a good idea considering it is coming up. I've added a QPQ review now. Kosack (talk) 16:36, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
  • Just a clarification: we already have an FA Cup-related special occasion hook lined up for May 19; @The C of E and Kosack: do you still want this to be a special occasion hook on that date? I see that he was married on May 29, 1906. Would running the hook on May 29 instead be an acceptable alternative, or would you still prefer the May 19 date?

@Narutolovehinata5: If there's no room for it on 19 May then I have no preference for a date other than that. I didn't have a special date in mind when expanding the article, it was purely coincidental that the final is coming up. Thanks. Kosack (talk) 05:19, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
There is no policy based reason why we cannot have more than 1 FA Cup hook on final day. Indeed we may even have 3 when one I have gets passed hopefully. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 06:37, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
@Yoninah and Cwmhiraeth: Thoughts on the proposed date? Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 09:25, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
There's no problem with running 2 FA Cup hooks on the same day. Yoninah (talk) 09:27, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
