Created/expanded by 72.74.209.132 (talk). Self nominated at 22:55, 15 June 2014 (UTC).


 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough (created 13 June, moved to mainspace 15 June, nom 16 June), and long enough. No QPQ needed, since no DYKs can be credited to an IP. Article text is objective and neutral, and is suffiently referenced. There are some paragraphs which are not referenced at the end, but all contain at least one inline citation. No problems with disambig links. No problems with access to external links except for one (see issue 1). ALT1 checks out with online citation #9. Citation links 1-12 were checked for sources of copyvio and close paraphrasing; none found. Citation links 13-92 were not checked. Issues: (1) Citation #10 is a deadlink. (2) The original hook is repeated in the article, but has no inline citation which will verify it, so I have struck it. If anyone finds a reliable citation, it can be unstruck.(3) Citation #8 is a blog. I have removed the deadlink and blog from the article because I could not ask the IP to do it - so issues 1 and 3 are resolved. Issue 2 is optional. Note: There are probably still some dodgy citation links in the article, e.g. a youtube video, but we cannot page the IP to put it right. So if you are a reviewer/admin reading this, please kindly consider deleting any offending citations yourself, and please do not expect any response to complaints and issues from the IP-nominator. There is a limit to what I am permitted to do as a reviewer. However I believe the article is written in good faith, and I see no reason to suspect that any part of the article is hyped, misrepresented, ambiguous or untrue. Good to go with ALT1. --Storye book (talk) 14:15, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Symbol confirmed.svg Thanks, BlueMoonset. Still good to go. --Storye book (talk) 06:59, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

The original hook is cited by this interview (citation #3). It was supposed to cover the entire section. I've also restored both citations #8 and #10. The first is the official website for wrestling announcer Rob Moore, not a blog, and the deadlink was fixed. 72.74.203.248 (talk) 00:48, 11 July 2014 (UTC)
