Overall: Hook is interesting, however I'm not entirely certain both are long enough. While both are about ~1,700 characters, the whole paragraph Both of them would first compete in the men's 30 kilometre classical event. There, Ricardo would place 83rd out of the 87 competitors that completed the race. Their next and last event would be the men's 15 kilometre classical event. There, Ricardo would place 81st out of the 85 competitors that completed the race, placing just behind his brother (~400 characters) is copied in both. According to WP:DYKG: Text that is not original does not count, including text copied from the public domain and from other Wikipedia articles. – which would mean the aforementioned paragraph would not count for one of them, thus leaving one short of the length requirement. Thoughts? Is there anything else to add to either subject? @Arconning:BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:11, 29 June 2025 (UTC)
BeanieFan11 Whoops! Forgot to change the text, did some changes. Arconning (talk) 07:15, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
Hi Arconning, I've unpromoted this hook per this discussion at WP:DYK (see relevant comment) on the basis that the leads are disproportionately long for the article solely to push it over the 1500 character minimum. The second paragraph of both leads should probably be removed. Also, while I'm here, please take note of WP:WOULDCHUCK. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:44, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
@AirshipJungleman29: I see... I wouldn't mind for this nomination being failed for now, I have a lot on my plate at the moment so I can't expand the article for now. Arconning (talk) 08:32, 11 July 2025 (UTC)
