Cranbrook RFC
- ... that Cranbrook RFC in Kent were once mistaken for another rugby club 200 miles away in Cranbrook, Devon by a newspaper? Source: Press Gazette
- ALT1: ,,, that the Midweek Herald's Cranbrook, Devon edition accidentally published a front-page story about the Cranbrook RFC, which is in another Cranbrook?
- ALT2: ... that the Midweek Herald's Cranbrook, Devon edition accidentally published a front-page story about Kent's Cranbrook RFC, 200 miles away? Source: Same as main hook.
- Reviewed: You're Too Precious
Created by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 07:51, 1 May 2020 (UTC).
New enough, long enough, cited, notable enough, no copyvio, format OK, NPOV OK, QPQ OK. I hope you don't mind, but I found the way you phrased the hook pretty boring, but the actual fact itself interesting/amusing, so I rewrote it in a way that highlights the best aspects of it.

- I'm removing the links on the grounds of WP:OLINK also, you don't call a rugby club "the". The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 06:41, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Yo You went kind of overboard with the link removal, in my opinion. Per WP:OLINK, [t]he names of subjects with which most readers will be at least somewhat familiar should not be linked, keeping in mind WP:GLOBAL/WP:MONDIAL. At least Midweek Herald should retain its link, I'd never heard of it, it's no The Guardian. I modified it a bit as well. Psiĥedelisto (talk) 08:15, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
Restoring thread so I can see what you're talking about in this discussion. In future, please post new alts below the others. The reviewer can then strike the ones that aren't being used. You do realize, Template:U, that we need a conversion template for the mileage, so the hook will read:
- ALT2a: ... that the Midweek Herald's Cranbrook, Devon, edition accidentally published a front-page story about Kent's Cranbrook RFC, 200 mi (320 km) away? Yoninah (talk) 22:48, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Ping Fine with me. But I think that's something that can be dealt with as a minor technical fix in the preps rather than needing to put the blue question mark on. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 22:57, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
