The Boat Race 1842[edit]
- ... that the 1842 University Boat Race was Oxford's first victory on "London water"?
- Reviewed: Not a self-nomination.
Improved to Good Article status by The Rambling Man (talk). Nominated by Bloom6132 (talk) at 00:50, 13 November 2014 (UTC).
Reviewer-in-training, second opinion needed. Article is long enough, it was promoted to GA on 11/12, the hook is cited and the reference checks out. --Rosekelleher (talk) 15:43, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
- Double confirmed! Thanks for the review, Rosekelleher – another thing that should be checked in DYK reviews is whether the article has any close paraphrasing from the sources you can access (I checked this article and there didn't seem to be any, so all is fine). 97198 (talk) 11:01, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
