Lou Rash
- ... that in his first year in the NFL, Lou Rash was told he was released and began flying back home, but was told upon landing that the release was a mistake and he was to return?
- Source: Was it a Rash decision?

Article was nominated seven days after it was promoted to GA so it meets that requirement. No close paraphrasing was found, a QPQ has been done, and the hook is interesting and cited inline. My main concern is that I'm not sure if the article meets WP:DYKCOMPLETE: is there no known information about him after his gridiron football career ended?

- @Narutolovehinata5: WP:DYKCOMPLETE says nothing about having to provide details about every part of a person's life. Parts of a football player's life, such as when they are in elementary school or after their career often aren't notable, and thus not reported on. This does not run afoul of WP:DYKCOMPLETE, which provides the following example:
For example, an article about a book that fails to summarize the book's contents, but contains only a biography of the author and some critics' views, is likely to be rejected as insufficiently comprehensive.

- It probably at least violates the spirit of that rule, or at least the "articles that fail to deal adequately with the topic" aspect. I've seen articles in the past that were held for similar reasons. Or at least, that's how I've seen DYKCOMPLETE be implemented in practice. If no information can be found, that's okay, but usually that has to be confirmed first. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 22:23, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
- Well, he got married and had two children ([1]). Should I add that? BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:21, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
- That should work at least. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 22:23, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

- Shouldn't the article mention his children by name? They're both in the source provided. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 11:00, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
- If I was reviewing this and saw either name in the article, I would yeet them on sight per WP:BLPNAME.--Launchballer 01:22, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
