• ... that footballer Ian Feuer played a Predator in the 2007 film Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem? Source: Feuer's website Rotten Tomatoes profile

• Article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and well referenced. Hook is interesting and appears to be supported by sources. QPQ is done. No copyvio found. However, I'm a bit concerned about the quality of the sources. How is pgka.co a reliable source (the .co extension alone raises an alarm bell)? The Rotten Tomatoes source is so barebones it does not mention what role Feuer plays in the film, and given the severe lack of supporting information, I can't even be assured that's not a different person with the same name. -Zanhe (talk) 19:15, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

PGKA is the website of the subject's goalkeeping academy and the Rotten Tomatoes profile does list his role in the film under credits. Kosack (talk) 19:47, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

If so, then PGKA is a WP:SPS and unsuitable source. Do you have a link for the Rotten Tomatoes credits? I looked around and couldn't find it. -Zanhe (talk) 23:39, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

It's one of the lists in the filmography section, the list is titled credit and the only entry is Predator. Kosack (talk) 05:24, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

I would also say that although it is a somewhat self-published source, WP:SELFPUB would advocate its use. It is not information about a third party nor is it controversial. Kosack (talk) 05:30, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

This should normally be considered an exceptional claim for which SELFPUB is not allowed. However, since it's also corroborated by Rotten Tomatoes filmography, I believe the two sources combined are good enough. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 05:11, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
