Olav Dalen edit
- ... that Norwegian goalkeeper Olav Dalen kept a clean sheet in his first two matches in Tippeligaen?

Fivefold and stub length fine (422 characters to about 2550), hook is ready to go (95 characters, neutral, interesting). No possible copyvio due to mostly Norwegian sources. Article is well formatted, picture is cleared. Østlendingen is suitable as reference BUT as I understood it ref8 only says he didn't received any goals in his debut against Odd Grenland but nothing on the Sandefjord second match. Am I correct?

- You are correct, nice catch. I've mixed up the Østlendingen citation with this one, where the Sandefjord-match is mentioned, but clearly I cannot use that as it cites (Norwegian) Wikipedia. However, the citation from NRK in the next sentance (footnote #9) does say that he conceded his first goal in his third match, is that good enough? Mentoz86 (talk) 19:23, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, but spread ref9 to the sentences in question to verify hook claims, then it's good to go. Lajbi Holla @ me • CP 19:31, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
- I've moved ref8, since it doesn't say anything about the Sandefjord match. If you don't think that ref9 is good enough, I might add a citation that shows that Dalen did not concede any goals against Sandefjord. Mentoz86 (talk) 19:39, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
- Ref9 is enough just copy it next to ref8, and maybe remove all traces of the Sandefjord match (place, score) unless it is properly cited. Still it doesn't effect this DYK nomination as ref8+ref9 combined clearly supports it. Lajbi Holla @ me • CP 19:50, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
That beiong said it is good to go. Lajbi Holla @ me • CP 19:51, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
