Dilys Price

  • ... that Dilys Price was the world's oldest female solo parachute jumper? Source: [1])

  • Hi, Template:U and Template:U, review follows: New enough, long enough, QPQ is good, hook is verifiable, interesting enough, no evidence of copyvio. Sourcing in the article is a bit iffy, I cannot find her birth date sourced anywhere, the cited source for Template:Tq [2] is a profile of her when she was 85, so cannot source her stopping when she was 86. That's just a check of two, I'd like to see them resolved. this might be a good source to incorporate, not sure whether there's any good info. Eddie891 Talk Work 13:42, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
I might suggest expanding the hook to
  • ALT1 ... that Dilys Price, who was the world's oldest female solo parachute jumper, conducted over 1,139 solo jumps before retiring at the age of 86?
--Eddie891 Talk Work 13:42, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping The date of birth is verifiable to Guinness World Records official Twitter feed. I'm always a little uncomfortable about citing something only to Twitter, though, what do you think? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:46, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping Template:Ping The date of birth is in the Guinness World Records page (8th reference in the reflist) as well as their Twitter feed.MerielGJones (talk) 11:17, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
Ok that seems good enough. How about her age at retirement? Was it 85 or 86? Template:U. Best, Eddie891 Talk Work 17:47, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
Template:Ping Template:Ping OK, I have added citation to the Guinness Record webpage at the start of the article, as evidence of date of birth and parchute jump. In ref 3 (BBC obit) it says she gave away her parachute aged 86. I have therefore cited it after the sentence 'After parachuting for 32 years, Price stopped doing solo jumps when she was aged 86.[1] ' (She did at least one tandem jump after this, and others have done tandem jumps aged up to 102. Dilys Price's record is for a solo parachute jump.) I have also now changed the wording about when she stopped solo jumps. After thinking about it, if she had made a solo jump after the one when she was 80 years and 315 days old, that later jump would be the record. 'After the 2013 jump, Price stopped doing solo jumps and sold her parachute when she was aged 86.[1]' (Also moved sentence about oxygen assisted jump to keep things in time order.) OK? MerielGJones (talk) 21:24, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
Symbol redirect vote 4.svg OK, I'm satisfied with your changes. ALT0 is GTG, but we need someone else to check ALT1 as I can't approve my own hook. Eddie891 Talk Work 14:24, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Symbol confirmed.svg for ALT1, which is hooky and checks out with the current citation no.3 (BBC News). (Note: I am only reviewing ALT1), and have not checked anything else. Storye book (talk) 16:22, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
