The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Overall: Zuver meets all the criteria (albeit barely, as the length is only a couple of letters over the limit - expansion would be nice but is not required). BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:24, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Overall: Englemann meets all the criteria (just passes the length requirement - though further expansion is not required, I see a few additional details you might want to add from the German Wikipedia of all places, including that he narrowly missed qualifying for the 1928 Olympics and was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame).

After further review, this DYK nomination is good! Each article appears to meet all the criteria, and thus this nomination appears ready to go! Nice work. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:59, 7 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
I'll grab another of these to review, though with the caveat that I'm going to wait until the newspapers approval kicks in so I can do my check for breadth. Wizardman01:12, 6 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I did give the article a read-through and did a source check, and found no issues with anything there. I did just get the e-mail for getting things set up on Newspapers so I should be able to double-check both this and the other article on that front tomorrow.

Now that I have approval, I did a skim of sources and I found a few that could expand the article a bit. I'll research further and post my findings on that front in a couple days. Wizardman00:37, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
One thing I did find is that apparently he was set to be traded to the NFL's Brooklyn Dodgers in October 1937, then two weeks later they realized he had a no-trade clause (I genuinely did not know they had things like that in contracts back then) and gave him back to Green Bay. I'd say that's worth adding into the article and it would explain only playing in 8 of the 11 games. Wizardman23:31, 13 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
