- This article is over 6500 bytes and was nominated for DYK on the same day it was created, satisfying date and length criteria. All claims supported by sources. Hooks are suitably short and supported by references. QPQ completed. Good to go! Mindmatrix 22:12, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- Note there are trivial phrasing errors (bolded) to fix:
- "...Canadian Olympic teams dating from to 1904..."
- "...Ferguson recalled that was proposing names..."
- Typos fixed. Flibirigit (talk) 22:23, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
