5x expanded by Church (talk). Self nominated at 06:44, 2 November 2014 (UTC).
Long enough, nom'd within 5 days of expansion, sources check out fine, hook cited, passes WP:NGRIDIRON since he's played in a regular season game, good to go. Zappa(5–7)Mati 23:41, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
The hook is incorrect. Per the article and source, it should be:
- ALT1: ... that New York Giants safety Nat Berhe is the first player of Eritrean descent to be drafted into the NFL?
- The first paragraph under San Diego State University needs a cite, per DYK rules. Yoninah (talk) 00:24, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, I've been out of town the last few days. I'll fix the problems in the next several hours when i'm back home. --Church Talk 06:32, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
As the nominator has been absent for nearly 3 weeks, I went ahead and found an inline cite. I also turned a lot of close paraphrasing into quotes, and added his full name as cited in the sources. Since I corrected the information in the original hook, I'm calling on another reviewer to sign off on it. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 18:48, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
Article is long enough, is within policy, and was nominated within time limit following expansion. ALT1, at 109 characters, is short enough. The hook is cited in the article. QPQ was done. Chris Troutman (talk) 03:51, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
- Note: This is a 5x expansion, which is also verified. And no close paraphrasing seen. Yoninah (talk) 09:36, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
