Dilys Price
- ... that Dilys Price was the world's oldest female solo parachute jumper? Source: [1])
- Reviewed: Tom Pope
5x expanded by MerielGJones (talk). Nominated by Ritchie333 (talk) at 11:13, 14 October 2020 (UTC).
- 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)
