City of Anaheim v. Angels Baseball LP[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.

  • Dates shouldn't be linked per WP:MOSNUM.

    • "opting instead to donate game tickets in the suite to various charities."
    • "and also seeking to recoup an "

  • Instead of linking to "year in baseball", why don't you link to the MLB season for that year?
  • Em dashes should not be spaced.
  • "Truth in advertising " Link?
