- ... that Fred Marples ran on a relay team that won the Canadian Track and Field Championships and was undefeated in its first fifteen races? [1]

Created by Flibirigit (talk). Self-nominated at 18:06, 31 July 2021 (UTC).
- I have struck ALT2 since the 1924 Canadian Olympic delegation was the second largest team to date, not the largest. I will propose some reworded versions of ALT1. Flibirigit (talk) 13:55, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
- ALT3:... that Fred Marples felt it was the duty of all Canadians to ensure the strongest possible national team at the Olympics? [2]
- ALT4:... that ice hockey executive Fred Marples officiated track and field events at the Summer Olympics and British Empire Games? [3]
I have proposed new hooks above. I tried to think of something hooky about World War I and hockey, but nothing came to me. A full review is needed. Thanks. Flibirigit (talk) 00:17, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
| General: Article is new enough and long enough |
|---|
| Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems |
|---|
|
| Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation |
|---|
|
| QPQ: Done. |
Overall: 
The initial hook is generally interesting because it indicates achievement and would interest many people. ALT 3 could also be interesting because of how seemingly humorous it is, but I don't think it was intended to be funny. In an unironic sense, I don't find it interesting. ALT 4 is probably the most interesting; it showcases that the executive has officiated major sporting events, thus it could be interesting to many people, even those who are mildly interested in sports. Not to mention, a hockey official officiating events for track and field is kind of funny, which expands its audience. I am passing ALT 4. Lazman321 (talk) 14:26, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
