Ed Carfrey

 * ... that Ed Carfrey, who played in Major League Baseball in 1890, was mistakenly omitted from baseball records until 2005?
 * Reviewed: Not my creation/expansion, QPQ rule doesn't apply.
 * Comment: Similar to Template:Did you know nominations/Henry Oxley, this will be kept at AfD, and should be promoted after the discussion closes. AfD closed as keep.

 * I appreciate Muboshgu nominating this rescue effort. I was probably going to nominate it anyway, so I don't mind doing a QPQ.  Please consider 4 2012 Pulitzer Prize Winners - George F. Kennan to be the QPQ.  I think Muboshgu's proposed hook is good, but I have an alternative that I'm offering below.  Either one is perfectly OK by me. Cbl62 (talk) 02:16, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
 * alt1 ... that Ed Carfrey played in an 1891 exhibition of indoor baseball using a 19-inch, hair-filled ball that was called "a travesty on the noblest of games"? Cbl62 (talk) 02:16, 28 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Original hook good to go. The article was expanded enough to qualify, it's well-referenced the original hook is cited in the article, etc. The source is offline, however, but I can AGF it. I know both of these nominating editors well enough to testify to their great contributions to Wikipedia.
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Alt1 also good to use for same criteria met above. This one was a PDF article online that could be verified directly. Both proposed hooks are good to go. Jrcla2 (talk) 02:57, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
