A fact from Vicky López appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 25 April 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Vicky López(pictured) took up horse riding during a six-month period when she was not allowed to play football?
She is officially registered with the B team and wears a reserve number with the first team, much like Gavi has been reduced to. Compare Maria Perez, who has also started matches with the first team, but the RFEF considers her a B team player on their national team squad list. Kingsif (talk) 00:01, 16 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

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.
Overall: Will go ahead and review while waiting for QPQ.
The following statement in the article need an inline citation:
López competed in multiple youth tournaments with Spain's under-17 national team, including both the 2022 and 2023 under-17 Euro and the 2022 under-17 World Cup, the latter of which she won.
She ended her tournament having scored one goal, in a 4–0 win over Norway in the group stage.
Spain's victory qualified them for the 2024 Olympics, the first Olympic qualification in their history. Spain later went on to win the final against France, where López again replaced Hermoso late in the match. Spain's Nations League victory was Lopez's first senior title with the Spanish national team.
@Kelsiesmith7: Could you review the sources you used for the horseriding part of the article, and any other parts (of this and preferably other articles) where you may have been more liberal with story-telling than the source can verify? Kingsif (talk) 00:59, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Kingsif: Her quote re:horseback riding from the Diario AS article by Aimara G. Gil linked earlier in the sentence states: "Luego me metí a fútbol-7, en un equipo de mi barrio en el Sport Villa de Vallecas. Jugué media temporada porque no íbamos bien en los estudios ni mi hermano ni yo y peleábamos mucho, así que mi padre nos castigó media temporada sin fútbol. Sólo íbamos los jueves a hípica y ya. No jugábamos en ningún equipo./Then I competed in 7-a-side football, in a neighborhood team called Sport Villa de Vallecas. I played half of a season because my brother and I's studies weren't going well and we fought a lot, so my father took us out of football for half a year. We only went horseback riding on Thursdays and that was it. We didn't play in any team." I just linked that source to the end of the sentence to make the horseback riding fact more verifiable. Also- it's not so much storytelling as it is good-faith attempts to make the most sense of the timeline of her career (and others that I've written about), especially when the assortment of details about of her early life are given in multiple different interviews from multiple different individuals, and not always in a linear timeline.
