Baseball in Germany[edit]
- ... that the first official baseball game in Germany took place under the Nazi regime at the 1936 Summer Olympics and the attendance of 125,000 was the largest in history for any baseball game? Source: Chetwynd, Josh (2008). Baseball in Europe. McFarland & Company, Inc., Publishers. pp. 109–126

The article is new enough and long enough. The hook is interesting and cited inline; offline source is accepted in good faith. This is the nominator's first DYK nomination so no QPQ is required. However, the article has several empty sections, and the "Germans in the MLB" section is mostly unreferenced. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:50, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for reviewing my DYK nomination. I removed the empty sections for now, and I added references for the "Germans in the MLB" section. Let me know if there is anything else. Germanboi87 (talk) 02:37, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
- However now the article feels incomplete, and the supplementary guidelines state that incomplete articles may not be approved at the discretion of the reviewers. At the very least, probably some mention of the German baseball league should be mentioned, with citations of course. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 06:31, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
- Saw this article on BlueMoonset's list and was interested; have added to article so that there is now a cited section on the German league. Does that address your concern @Narutolovehinata5:? 70.67.193.176 (talk) 16:49, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
- I'm going to continue working on the article. Thank you very much for your help @70.67.193.176:. Germanboi87 (talk) 04:03, 31 October 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you again for your help. Could you please look over this article again and let me know what you think. @Narutolovehinata5: Germanboi87 (talk) 18:03, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
Looks a lot better to me now. Thanks, good to go now. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 20:57, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
