Comments (and suggest these are implemented, in principle, in the other GAN)

  • "while the teams placed from" -> "while those placed from"
  • "table partook in play-off semi-finals; the winners of these semi-finals " -> "took part in play-offs; the winners of the play-off semi-finals..."
  • "West Brom had" stick with formal names or introduce nicknames.
  • Same for Vale.
  • Link referee in lead.
  • "The pivotal point of the match" a bit OR.
  • Link sent off.
  • "goals difference" -> "goal difference" and link.
  • I would use the sports table module for the league, as seen in 1991 Football League Fourth Division play-off Final for example. Seems more accessible etc.
  • "the first leg was" -> "first match of the two-legged tie.
  • "Giant striker..." avoid such commentary.
  • Play-off semifinal reports seem to be unreferenced.

  • "1992–93 season" I know it's red linked anyway, but put the "season" into the pipe.
  • "tally of namesake" not really requied.
  • "42,300 Baggies" don't use nicknames unless you explain them.
  • "Vale showing patience and possession" according to?
  • "a scissors kick" link.
  • "by Ian Taylor tipped" overlink.
  • "used his acrobatic skills" bit too commentatorish.
  • Link foul.
  • "dismissal" link.
  • "third Englishman" what about non-Englishmen?
    • The source didn't mention them.--EchetusXe 15:55, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "for the "Baggies" final goal" nickname
  • "from six yards" convert.
  • Could crop the Ardilles image so it doesn't leak down into the refs.
  • Done.EchetusXe 15:55, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • "£2 million" non-breaking space.
  • Done.--EchetusXe 15:56, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "afterwards... my" non-breaking space before the ellpsis.
  • Done.--EchetusXe 15:56, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "after barely surviving" can we be factual and explain what that really meant?
  • "Red carded Peter Swan" not necessary, not even sure this sentence is required.
  • I don't think www and .com are needed for websites.

THat's a first pass, I'll put it on hold while we deal with these and then do another run-through. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 10:22, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • Okay thanks, I've taken a crack at that.--EchetusXe 15:55, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is good enough now for GA, I made a few cosmetic tweaks, so I'm happy to promote. I'll take a look at the other one of yours as well, perhaps you could pre-empt my review by considering some of the general points above on that article too? Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert!
