Lead[edit]

"took part in play-off semi-finals;" - shouldn't it be the play-off semi-finals;
Not necessarily, it's not been in a problem in the other 20 or so GAs, and it reads fine to me. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:34, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Route to the final[edit]

Should East London be wikilinked?
Why not. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:39, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Who was involved in the defensive mix up that allowed Kuqi to score?
Added. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:39, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"Preston North End played Derby County, the first leg being played at" - repetition of the word "played"
Reworded. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:39, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"after David Nugent beat Lee Camp in the Derby goal after picking up a flicked pass from Chris Sedgwick." - I beleive the first use of the word "after" can be changed to an appropriate relevant alternative word
Adjusted. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:39, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Wikilink header to the approrpiate article on the first mention
Done. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:39, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Background[edit]

Repka's full name should be mentioned here and not in the summary since it is the first time he is mentioned
Done. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe clarify it was Brian O'Neill's right eye that got headbutted?
Sure. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Wikilink Football League Division Two
Fixed name and linked. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"Preston had played in the second tier of English football since gaining promotion in the 1999–2000 season as champions of Football League Division Two, and had not played" - repetition of "played"
Addressed. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"Winning the play-off final was estimated to be worth" - estimated by whom?
The media. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"who represented the West Riding County Football Association." - not mentioned by ESPN. Another source will be needed to verify this
West Riding is Yorkshire, so I'll use the BBC source. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:47, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Summary[edit]

Wikilink Millennium Stadium and free kick
Done. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:52, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delink Tomáš Řepka and just his surname is sufficent
Done. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:52, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"twisting his knee." - right knee
Done. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:52, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Why was Walker booked just after sustaining his knee injury?
None of the sources state it explicitly but he carried the ball out of the area so I would assume it was handball/denying a goal-scoring opportunity, but as it's not verifiable, it can't go in. The Rambling Man (Hands! Face! Space!!!!) 16:52, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Post-match[edit]
