Talk:Dick Rifenburg

Family query
I stumbled upon someone who may be his grandson at http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/highschool/story/162311.html?imw=Y. A subsquent google search for the term Doug Rifenburg football Buffalo yielded a link to http://www.ubathletics.buffalo.edu/football/stats/fbrecordbook.pdf, which may have another Rifenburg I have not yet found. That link had the following Google preview clip: Buffalo’s last season in “Big Time”football for over 20 years. ...... Doug Rifenburg. P.J. Riga ______ 1990. Leroy Riley_________1960-61 ...

Another Rifenburg approximately the same age as the one above played football for Santa Clara: http://www.letthemplay.com/roster-a92.htm .--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:LOTD) 15:58, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
 * More family info citation requests: born to Dorothy Marie Shannon-Rifenburg and Paul Almond Rifenburg, and Also surviving thier brother Dick is Gerald Thomas Rifenburg of Williamsville NY and Toni Sue Rifenburg-Walker of Flagler Beach Florida. Seem believable.  Is this sourced or coming from a family member?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 00:57, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Further analysis: But apart from that, I see nothing wrong with this article and am willing to pass this article. Well done to the editors involved. It's a very good article. &mdash; Rudget contributions 20:25, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Image used is appropriately captioned and has no copyright violation etc. outstanding on or in it's history. ✅
 * References are various, well placed (i.e used appropriately and compliant with MOS) and are reliable. ✅
 * Hardly any grammar, spelling mistakes.✅
 * Only one issue I can bring up:
 * In the lead it mentions that WBEN is now known as WIVB, and then again in the professional career section. Is this necessary, the link used is already a redirect and it's already mentioned in the lead. So that might need to be removed.
