  •   Age and length good. Source good on current hook. No QPQ link provided, but I found discussion here about past contributions and at least one review here.
My one hesitation: I'm not sure Ventroni's nickname is striking enough for the hook. Maybe instead:
If others think the original hook is good enough, I'm happy to be overruled. This is my first DYK review.

ALT2 ... that athletic trainer Gian Piero Ventrone, nicknamed "marine" for his very hard and tiring training sessions, made his players ring a "bell of shame" when they were too exhausted to continue? [1] Bdhamilton What do you think? Dr Salvus 17:49, 16 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
ALT2 is great! But I'm now noticing, too, that there are some significant copyvio problems from a source not included in the references. Those will need to be addressed before this gets approved. Brian Hamilton (talk) 19:55, 16 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Bdhamilton I can swear that the website did copy from me and not vice versa, without any attrubion! Dr Salvus 20:11, 16 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
  Yikes! Okay, yeah, I can see that the overlapping passages were part of your initial edit on October 6, and are dated October 9 on the other site. I buy it! Approved with ALT2. Brian Hamilton (talk) 20:41, 16 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Age of death

edit

@PFHLai, the source says he was born in 1960, he can't have died at 61. Dr Salvus 10:18, 8 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've found a lot. Search on Google "Gian Piero Ventrone 14 aprile 1960". Most sources will say he was born in April 1960. Dr Salvus 10:21, 8 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
I know. So disappointed in BBC, .... even AP! Ouch. --PFHLai (talk) 10:37, 8 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
He could have died at 61 if he had been born in October, November or December 1960. In this case he was born in April so was 62, but it is mathematically possible for someone to have been born in 1960 and to still be 61 now. 98selitb (talk) 11:48, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
It was April 14th, 1960. --PFHLai (talk) 23:37, 23 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
