Paddy Green in his Beaufighter
- ... that after winning Olympic bronze in bobsleigh, "Paddy" Green went on to RAF night fighter fame that won awards from the US and Soviet Union? Source: Tidy, olympics database

Created by Maury Markowitz (talk). Self-nominated at 17:05, 20 February 2021 (UTC).
Article is long enough (8,236 characters), new enough (created 20 February, nominated the same day), and article is within policy. Earwig copyvio says 31% chance of copyvio, but this is false positive- all content flagged are names of people, places or organisations
The hook is short enough and interesting, however the article text and the source say that Green won a bronze medal at the 1936 Winter Olympics, not a gold medal like the hook says. Maury Markowitz shouln't the hook say that "... that after winning Olympic bronze" rather than Olympic gold?- QPQ done
Article looks fine, only issue to be resolved is the Olympic medal mentioned in the hook. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:11, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Brain fart when typing the hook. All fixed. @Joseph2302: Maury Markowitz (talk) 00:34, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
