• We can't un-italicize them. Since we're utilizing the "work" parameter in the "cite web" template, it's programmed to do that. This was accepted in recently promoted FL List of Major League Baseball pitchers with 18 strikeouts in one game. —Bloom6132 (talk) 18:58, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikilink the first time publishers are mentioned in the refs → Ref #1 wikilink Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame

• An ISBN needs to be added to ref #2

• Since the book can be found online in Google Books, that is not necessary. Again, accepted in List of Major League Baseball pitchers with 18 strikeouts in one game and 30–30 club. —Bloom6132 (talk) 18:58, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref #10 → add The New York Times Company as the publisher

• That's unnecessary, because we're using a "cite news" template, not a "cite web" template. Simply the newspaper name will suffice, per Mariano Rivera and Derek Jeter FAs. Both have NYT articles that have solely the newspaper name and no publisher. —Bloom6132 (talk) 14:13, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref #14 + #18 → add Torstar as the publisher

• Again, unnecessary. See above. —Bloom6132 (talk) 14:13, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref #27 → add Metroland Media Group as the publisher

• See above. —Bloom6132 (talk) 14:13, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Ref #28 → add MediaNews Group as the publisher

• See above. —Bloom6132 (talk) 14:13, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• "Converted" means to successfully record the save, as contrast to a blown save. —Bloom6132 (talk) 16:39, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• A link might be nice if we don't have one. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:42, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Do you mean a piped wikilink or a source? —Bloom6132 (talk) 19:28, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Wikilink. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:19, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Done. —Bloom6132 (talk) 08:40, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Don't really trust File:Larry Walker1.jpg. The uploader did some copyright violation before being blocked (see here)

• Done. Removed questionable pic. —Bloom6132 (talk) 16:35, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Otherwise I think this is ready to go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:24, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Minor issue, but "earliest Canadian stars in" is mildly POV.

• Hmm. Source 1 does call him a "star", so it's sorta backed up... There's a way to reword it, it'll come to me. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:31, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• And ref 3, which could be citing that "star" is "unavailable" to me.
• Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame is overlinked.

• Fixed. —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:55, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• "from 2002–2004" never nice in prose, why not from 2002 to 2004 or between 2002 and 2004 inclusive or something prose?

• Done. —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:55, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• "proceeded to win" not keen on "proceeded to" always feels a little redundant. Maybe just "then won..."

• Changed to "went on to win". "then won" sounds a bit awkward and incomplete. —Bloom6132 (talk) 00:44, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Last four sentences of the second lead para repeat Tip O'Neill three times. I understand you need to remove ambiguity because you're talking about other awards in the same para, but consider a rethink so we don't have so much repetition.
  • I moved the Daniel Brabant tidbit up to cut out one of its uses. That should help some, but as you say, we do have to be clear which award we're talking about at each usage of the word "award". – Muboshgu (talk) 18:33, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Error in the Tip O'Neill template for most recent year.

• Added. —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:55, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• How do you demonstrate a player is still "active"? E.g. Morneau's win is referenced in 2008, where's the citation for him being on a roster this season?

• Per my discussion with Bagumba in recently passed FL, the "Baseball Almanac general ref lists all the players, which also has links to each player's profile where it can be verified if they are active/inactive." In short, the general ref suffices in determining active/inactive players. —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:55, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• I think since we're trying to appeal to all readers, not just those who follow baseball, a note to that effect would be rather helpful. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:36, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Done. Added note. —Bloom6132 (talk) 03:51, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
