QPQ: Done.

Overall: Zuver meets all the criteria (albeit barely, as the length is only a couple of letters over the limit - expansion would be nice but is not required). BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:24, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • For Englemann:
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: Englemann meets all the criteria (just passes the length requirement - though further expansion is not required, I see a few additional details you might want to add from the German Wikipedia of all places, including that he narrowly missed qualifying for the 1928 Olympics and was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame).

General comments

  • Source spotcheck passed.
  • As with your last short GAN I reviewed, I think we want to make sure that it's as detailed as possible. So to that end:
    • Height and weight should be mentioned and cited in the body.
      • I disagree. There is nothing unique about his height or weight in the sources. The "Stats at Pro Football Reference" cover the citation of the material in the infobox. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:28, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Link "letterman"
    • Source 2 indicates he intended to join the army after leaving college.
    • Source 3 notes that he was an assistant coach at a Pittsburgh high school for a year, and that his transfer from the Packers to Pittsburgh may been due to him being drafted for WW2. Also has a different weight.
    • Source 6 indicates that he was on a Pittsburgh roster for 1943? also a talent for anticipating the opposition tactics.
    • Could have more details about his boxing career—he was a heavyweight, fought under the name of Billy Sullivan, etc.
    • I suppose the image in e.g. source 10 is not copyright free?
