"A following" doesn't sound right. reword
Archive sources (you can use this).
Do NOT use the "publisher" parameter for websites.
Add the "use mdy dates" template to fix references.
#3 is missing a date and an author name.

@Some Dude From North Carolina: I have made the adjustments you requested, except the one about "publisher". The reason is because I would just like to ask a question because if I use "Website" or "work" it puts the title in italics and my understanding was that non-print sources (like ESPN) should be in regular text. What should I used instead? The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:52, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@The C of E: I would suggest putting PW Torch, Den of Geek, and Goliath.com in italics. Also, #3 is still missing an author/date. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 12:54, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Some Dude From North Carolina: Done those. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 14:50, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
