Kirsty McGuinness
... that Kirsty McGuinness plays for both the historically mostly Catholic Antrim GAA and the historically mostly Protestant Northern Ireland women's national football team?Source: BBC
- Reviewed: Border Personnel Meeting point
Created by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 13:04, 28 November 2017 (UTC).
Template:U New, in time, long enough, sourced, neutral, QPQ done. Issues:
- Where in the article does it say that Antrim GAA is mostly Catholic, or that the national team is mostly Protestant?
- Hook seems to conflict with this line in the article: "[McGuinness playing on these teams] differed from men's sport where there are sectarian divides between majority Protestant association football and majority Roman Catholic GAA." --Usernameunique (talk) 07:16, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

- Template:U, how does "McGuinness would attend Linfield training wearing an Antrim shirt and vice versa" support the hook? Also, what I mean by the apparent contradiction is that the hook implies that the two teams are majority Catholic and majority Protestant, and that McGuinness is an exception to that trend. The sentence about men's soccer appears to say the same; that the teams are majority (but not exclusively) Catholic or Protestant, which also implies that there are some exceptions to the general trend. --Usernameunique (talk) 20:58, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

Discussion at WT:DYK that led to hook being pulled
|
|---|
|
The hook is contradicted by the source (see hatted discussion above, which is copied from the DYK talk page), so this nomination is being pulled from prep so a new hook can be proposed and vetted. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:26, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
- ALT1:

- ALT1, regrettably, is 212 prose characters, well above the maximum 200 at DYK. Please try again, The C of E. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:51, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

A minor rewording but it comes to 199 characters. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 17:01, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Pinging Black Kite to see whether this new hook answers their concerns about the facts and sourcing. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:28, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
- Well there's nothing actually wrong about it, although it's not massively hooky ... I wouldn't object to it though. Black Kite (talk) 00:26, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
- I think we've just about exhausted this hook direction; ALT2 seems to veer off from the subject to an historical discussion about the men's teams. Could we come up with a different hook and move this onto the main page already?
- ALT3: ... that in 2012, Linfield footballer Kirsty McGuinness crossed the Belfast's Big Two divide and helped the rival team to a Women's Premiership and Irish Women's Cup double in her first season? Yoninah (talk) 23:22, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
New reviewer needed to check ALT3. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:04, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
- Length, Date, QPQ, and Earwigs check for ALT3. The sources indicate the player moved between the two teams (though there is no mention of a "divide" being crossed) however for the two championships, the cited video refuses to load for me (I suspect it might be Geo-restricted) and I was unable to locate an alternate source. Is there someone who can check the video/get it to load? Mifter (talk) 20:36, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for taking this one on, Template:U. Belfast's Big Two is a commonplace way of identifying these two teams, Linfield and Gletoran. If she moved from one team to the other, she crossed the "divide". Yoninah (talk) 21:18, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
- Template:U, Thanks for the clarification, I suspected that once I read the Big Two article but wanted to double check. Out of curiosity does the video load for you? I tried multiple browsers/devices and had no luck and my verifying that part of the hook is the last thing prior to approval. Best, Mifter (talk) 02:34, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
- Template:Ping No, the video doesn't load. I'm surprised that the nominator, Template:U, hasn't weighed in here on the third go-round. I don't think it's my job to keep coming up with new hooks. I'm inclined to fail the nomination at this point. Yoninah (talk) 01:22, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
- I didn't comment but I was watching because it looked like we were coming to a consensus. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 16:49, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
- The C of E, given that there have been problems verifying the hook, perhaps you could be more active in assisting the reviewers, and see whether the video can still be loaded by you and perhaps others. Maybe Cwmhiraeth is somewhere that can load it and can let us know whether it supports the hook? Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:09, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
- Sorry, it doesn't work for me either. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:28, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
