- Hook is to-the-point, and is simple and interesting. I am a new reviewer and would like a second opinion. heyitsben!! talk 12:46, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- @HeyitsBen: you should provide a review that explicitly confirms that the five main DYK criteria have been met. An optional Reviewer's Template is located above the edit window. A QPQ has not yet been submitted for this nomination. Yoninah (talk) 21:14, 30 November 2019 (UTC)
- QPQ has been added. @HeyitsBen: Please complete the review as instructed above. SounderBruce 06:37, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- My sincere apologies for the wait: The article is new enough (considering I reviewed this a week ago) and has a "readable prose size". The hook is long enough, is undisputable, neutral, interesting and well sourced. heyitsben!! talk 19:32, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- @HeyitsBen: "New enough" refers to the article, not the time you did your review. The article should have been nominated within 7 days of creation, which it was. Yoninah (talk) 22:32, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: Exactly. Assuming that I fully reviewed the hook 7 days ago (which I was supposed to do), the article would have been

- @HeyitsBen: I'm sorry, I'm not following you. The newness criteria refers to the time elapsed between the page creation date and the date of nomination. This article was created and nominated on the same day. The date of the review doesn't factor into this equation. (In fact, many reviews take place weeks after the nomination date.)

- @Yoninah: My apologies, you are totally correct! My brain isn't working today... I meant to say "a day old", not "seven days old". heyitsben!! talk 11:35, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

editCan a better photo for the Infobox be found?
The current one, with weeds and 'junk' near & against the chainlink fencing, makes it look like an abandoned construction/removal site. 2600:8800:784:8F00:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 02:04, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
- You can take one yourself and upload from an account. We use whatever images are freely available. SounderBruce 05:50, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
- Ignore SounderBruce, he lacks manners and nuance. We really do need a better photo to accompany the article. Unfortunately, Wikipedia has to use photos properly licensed for free use. There seems to be nothing out there, so it would be helpful if someone snapped a picture while at a game and followed the upload tutorial over at Wikimedia.Outdatedpizza (talk) 08:32, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
