... that Linus Persson won TV-pucken and four Swedish Ice Hockey Junior Championships?

~~2x expanded and sourced (BLP)~~ Created and expanded by Krm500 (talk). Self nominated at 01:43, 31 March 2013 (UTC).

The article was actually created on 23 March and had a reference, and I understand BLPs should have been completely unreferenced before expansion in order to qualify for the 2x expansion rule. So I'm going to have to say this doesn't pass the requirements, sorry. Mabalu (talk) 21:11, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

It was created on March 23. At that time the prose size was 317 characters. Then an expansion began on March 31, bringing it up to the current prose size of 2986 characters, an expansion of 9.4x. I've struck the "2x expanded and sourced (BLP)" which is not applicable, but this far exceeds the normal 5x expansion requirement. I haven't looked at anything else, so this requires a full review, but the date and size are absolutely fine. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 06:28, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Still not acceptable. There are no references or citations in the main prose section other than a single one for the first statement. Mabalu (talk) 10:26, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Sorry been busy over Easter, but I added a couple references and plan to expand the article further the next few days.—KRM ^{(Communicate!)} 22:47, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Much better. There's still quite a few unreferenced statements, and I'm happy to accept the references so far in good faith (I've checked, and have identified proper nouns in the sources, in contexts which appear to support the statements - even though I don't read Swedish). Still concerned about those few unsupported statements - I know some are probably reiterating what's in the career statistics. Mabalu (talk) 23:45, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

There's still a lot of non-inline referenced statements, mostly relating to statistics involving Persson. —♦♦ AMBER^(ЯʘCK) 18:08, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Had forgotten about this. I've pulled all the stats from historical.stats.swehockey.se/, which is published by the Swedish Ice Hockey Association, but it's impossible to link anything other than game summaries, everything else you have to navigate to via the menu. —KRM ^{(Communicate!)} 21:54, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Yikes, you're right about that. Not a very user-friendly site. Can you pull the data from somewhere else? If not, please consider making use of notes in which you describe how to reach the information. Not citing these basic facts at all is simply not an option, I'm afraid.—♦♦ AMBER^(ЯʘCK) 07:12, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Outstanding issues have not been resolved. It needs to happen soon, otherwise this nomination will not make it.—♦♦ AMBER^(ЯʘCK) 11:29, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
