  • New enough, long enough. QPQ present. Hook is cited and interesting (I vastly prefer ALT1 because it does not involve word gymnastics). One thing I'd need clarified before approving is a lot of the wording is similar to other Football League Cup articles. Is this OK? Raymie (tc) 23:02, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
  • @Raymie: Usually it is allowed but is discounted. If you discount the format section, which is what is similar to other articles, the character count is still over the limit. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 16:13, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
  • Sounds good then. Raymie (tc) 21:15, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
