GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a. (prose, spelling, and grammar):

   see bottom

   b. (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   All of the names in this article need to be wikilinked per MOS:UL

   Do you mean the names of the individual players? If so, then I disagree; I don't think the linked MOS page supports that (they'd all be redlinks and, while that's not necessarily a bad thing, I'm not convinced they'd all be notable enough to be turned blue). If there's any football-specific terms that need linking, let me know and I can do that (that falls under the "jergon/technical terms" clause of UL).

   Any names that are bluelinks should be linked. Cherrell410 (talk) 02:27, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

   Done, added three links. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 02:45, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

   @Cherrell410: Sorry, forgot a ping. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 02:45, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

   "deadlocked" should be wikilinked

   Changed this to another word that more clearly describes what happened. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a. (reference section):

   b. (citations to reliable sources):

   c. (OR):

   d. (copyvio and plagiarism):

   8.7%!!!

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a. (major aspects):

   b. (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a. (images are tagged and non-free content have non-free use rationales):

   No media, but media are not required for GA status

   b. (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   per above

7. Overall:

   Pass/fail:

   Suggestions for improvements:

• Lead: The inaugural fenway bowl, the game featured... --> As the inaugural fenway bowl, the game featured...
  • Adjusted, but used different wording. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Background: unable to play their scheduled opponent, smu, was unable to find a replacement --> sentence should be split into 2
  • I disagree; the second part of that sentence explains that SMU wasn't able to replace UVA after they had to drop out. I think it sounds totally natural as is, with only one sentence. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Teams#Cincinnati: set to join --> joined
  • I know this seems pedantic, but Cincinnati won't join the Big 12 until next Saturday, July 1, 2023, so changing it to past tense now would technically be incorrect. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• @Cherrell410: responses above, thank you for the review. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 21:37, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
