History of rugby union in Wales

(

)

... that 1900–1919 was a "golden era" in Welsh rugby?

Comment: I know this is a bit late, but it would be a shame to let such a good new article slip through without DYK

Lengths are fine and nomination is close enough to five days for government work. Primary problem is that the "References" section contains multiple short citations referencing various pages in either "Smith (1980)" or "Morgan (1988)" but if the full citation to these works is present in the article my browser's search function has been unable to locate them. Without the full citations it is not possible to perform the core of the review work (confirming hook and article facts, checking for close paraphrasing, ...). --Allen3 ^talk 16:46, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

You're right, I can't fix it as it is too common a name, so have asked the creator. Thanks, Mat ty.007 18:02, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

This article is a duplicate of Rugby union in Wales, with some additional text copied from Cnapan and Rugby league in Wales. Hence the incomplete citations – the inline cites were copied over, but not the bibliography. DoctorKubla (talk) 16:20, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Is it completely copied? Thanks, Mat ty.007 17:03, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Yes. I think the first two sentences of the "Arrival of Rugby League" section are original. That's it. DoctorKubla (talk) 08:23, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
