::: {{u|Dumelow}}, I can AGF on the new reference, but what I don't understand is why you have left the original cite there when it doesn't support the hook. Also, you have used the same reference for the whole of the first paragraph in the "Candidates" section, yet I see no correlation between that paragraph and the given page in the source. Are you sure you have the right page number for this cite?

1872 Londonderry City by-election
- ... that the 1872 Londonderry City by-election was the first parliamentary election in Ireland to be held under a secret ballot? "it was the paramount issue in a by-election in Derry in 1872 and it was in this election, the first held in Ireland under the secret ballot" from: Thompson, Frank (2013). The End of Liberal Ulster: Land Agitation and Land Reform, 1868-1886. Ulster Historical Foundation. p. 74. ISBN 978-1-903688-06-9.
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Kathleen Byerly
- Comment: I found this article as a two-sentence stub in dire need of improvement. No wanting to get caught up in the recent "Londonderry affair", I am happy if the main page appearance of this one needs to be delayed a bit. If it is delayed 23 November might be a good date, for the anniversary.
