Draft:List of Hull Kingston Rovers seasons

Hull Kingston Rovers are an English professional rugby league club based in Kingston upon Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire. Founded in 1882 as Kingston Amateurs by a group of apprentice boilermakers in the Hessle Road area, taking on its current name during their 1885-86 season, the club has competed in the sport since being admitted into the Northern Football Union in 1899. This list details the club's achievements in all major competitions.

List articles on Wikipedia need to meet Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists criteria, which generally means the parent subject is notable and the list itself has encyclopedic value. Hull KR is clearly notable, so the list could work, but the draft currently has no introduction beyond a single sentence and almost no sourcing for the individual season data.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.
