The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Y article is long enough (6918 characters), new enough (created 9 June, nominated 11 June), and article is within policy
? Both of the hooks proposed say that Reaney is the "only" swimmer to achieve the feats listed. However, [1] says she was the first to win NCAA Championship, and [2] says she was first student to have an American record. This doesn't prove that she's the only one to do it (as someone could have also achieved the feat between 2014 and 2022).
The rest of the original review stands. I do not see another ND entry in the NCAA Champions lists (refs 36/37) besides Reaney, so I approve ALT0. ALT1 checks out. The hook image is freely licensed—a frame from a CC-BY video—but of low quality and not my personal favorite. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:19, 2 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

TonyTheTiger, I realized after the GA review that I should have done some spotchecks during the review. I checked several; most were OK but I found a couple of problems:
FN 43 cites "On December 5, 2014, Reaney teamed with Felicia Lee, Claire Donahue, Amanda Weir (prelims), and Natalie Coughlin, to set an american record in the 2014 FINA World Swimming Championships (25 m) – Women's 4 × 50 metre medley relay with their silver medal finish in 1:44.92." The source, here, doesn't give most of those details.
FN 45 cites "She swam in the preliminary heats for 400m Medley relay team that won the bronze medal on the same day." The source is a FINA page with three tabs; she's listed as competing in the event, but how do you know it was in the heats?

Hey y'all - this is Emma Reaney lol. Not sure why that one article has my height listed as 5'11", but I'm 5'8". Can someone edit this? I don't know how, especially since the only actual source for this info is simply me. @TonyTheTiger can you help? Chloreaney (talk) 17:24, 23 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
Not sure if this is a serious request, but WP is a tertiary source that summarizes secondary sources. Submit a link from a WP:RS with a more recent than the one used for your 5'11' height and we can make the change.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:44, 28 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
