- ... that Cheltenham Town lost the 2012 Football League Two play-off Final, their first defeat in nine play-off matches?
- ALT1:... that Steve Davis led Crewe Alexandra to promotion by winning the 2012 Football League Two play-off Final having taken over as manager of the club with them in 18th place in the league?

This article is a fivefold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and either hook could be used, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues (although a somewhat garbled version of the article seems to be being used as coursework!). A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:26, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Hi there. I reviewed this for promotion, and I have a question about the sourcing. The article states, "The defeat was Cheltenham's first in the play-offs, having won five and drawn three of their previous post-season matches." However, I couldn't figure out where the cited source states that Cheltenham had won five and drawn three of the previous matches. Could you please point me towards the right information? I'm not familiar at all with this topic area, so it's very likely that I misread the source. Thanks in advance! Edge3 (talk) 16:44, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
- Not sure what that has to do with the DYK, but the source says This was Cheltenham's first ever defeat in a play-off game, they had won five and drew three of their previous extra-season games, winning promotion in 2002 and 2006.

- It's relevant to DYK because it supports the info in hook ALT0. Thanks for clarifying! I overlooked the box in the article. Edge3 (talk) 21:33, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

Lead
edit- "The top three teams of the 2011–12 Football League Two season gained automatic promotion to League One, while the teams placed from fourth to seventh" - repetition of "teams"
Route to the final
edit- "Cheltenham Town finished the regular 2011–12 season in sixth place in Football League Two, the fourth tier of the English football league system, one place" - repetition of "place"
- "Despite chances for Southend," - might be better to clarify that Southend had chances to score
- "Taiwo Atieno then pulled one back for Torquay" - think this could be rephrased a little differently
Summary
edit- "before Leitch-Smith struck an effort wide." - not sure what this means
- "who beat a defender by flicking the ball up" - which defender was that?
- Source doesn't say. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 16:18, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
- "A mistake from Dugdale sae Mohamed run through on goal" - spelling error
- Wikilink substitution to the relevant article on the first mention only
Post-match
edit- "Cheltenham finished in fifth place in League One" - shouldn't that be League Two?
Will be putting the review on hold to allow the nominator to address or query the points raised above. MWright96 (talk) 15:49, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
