 * Symbol delete vote.svg Only 616 characters (1500 minimum) - tables don't count. Only one reference, and that is a bare URL. Hook is not cited, and doesn't make sense - were there two (or more) marathons at The World Championships in Athletics in 1983? Not checked for copyivo/paraphrasing, as even the one ref doesn't provide anything of use. Back to the drawing board! Edwardx (talk) 22:08, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
