Gerry Culliton
- ... that Gerry Culliton was banned from hurling after being seen playing rugby and later represented Ireland in rugby internationally? Source: Laois Today
- Reviewed: Censorship of the Bible
5x expanded by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 13:47, 10 March 2020 (UTC).
- Article was expanded on 10 March, and is sufficiently long: 1,706 characters. The hook is interesting, but needs clarification: link hurling, and make it clear at which sport he represented Ireland. The hook facts are appropriately cited inline, and spotchecks reveal no copyvio. Harrias talk 17:37, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Harrias: I have fixed the issue of the sport but personally I'd prefer not to link hurling because I think it may be a little unnecessary, we don't tend to link to individual sports and I don't like adding extra links when they aren't needed because they take attention away from the hook.

- @The C of E: Plenty of people won't be aware what hurling is; it needs a link. Once added, I'm happy that this is good to go. Harrias talk 17:56, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
