@Kosack: New enough and long enough. Sources are in the right place on the article and check out (AGF on the supporting book source though its content is backed by the club's records page as well). No issues in Earwig. You need a QPQ. Please ping me when QPQ is supplied. Raymie (t • c) 01:21, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
