5x expanded by The Rambling Man (talk). Self-nominated at 21:01, 25 June 2021 (UTC).[reply]

  • Hi The Rambling Man, review follows: article more than 5x expanded from 25 June; article is well written but it's a shame there's not more detail on the actual match (I guess limited by what the sources say?); article is cited inline throughout generally to reliable sources, I just want to query Pitchinvasion.net and euro2008.football-shirts.co.uk (both retained from the original stub), what makes them reliable? I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing from the sources I checked, the automatic detector picks up a passage from Memolands.com but given the publishing date they must have copied from us; hook is interesting and mentioned in the article, happy to AGF on offline source; a QPQ has been carried out. Would be a good candidate to feature on the day of the Euro 2020 final, 11 July? - Dumelow (talk) 09:26, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Dumelow thanks for the review. I concede the nom may have been a touch premature, I intend to add a match summary with more detail today and to replace those dubious sources. I'll let you know when I've done it if you like. And yes, it might be a nice DYK for the Euro 2020 final day! The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus!

Sure thing, give me a ping here and I'll pop back to finish the review - Dumelow (talk) 09:42, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Dumelow thanks for your patience. I didn't expect it to be picked up so quickly! I've expanded the match summary using RS and think all should be in order. Thanks again for your attention to detail. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 16:22, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good The Rambling Man. I see I accidentally used the approved icon above, but to confirm all is fine - Dumelow (talk) 16:57, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Dumelow thanks, very much appreciated. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 16:58, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Infobox and lead both look good.
  • "prior to" → "before" (less wordy)
  • Remove the comma after "two years before".
  • "an attendance 78,481" → "an attendance of 78,481"
  • Add a hyphen between "quarter final".
  • "the Soviet Union were" → "the Soviet Union was"
  • "players appeals" → "players' appeals"
  • Add a hyphen between "highest scoring".
  • "Kutnetsov" - typo?
  • Remove the comma after "across the goalmouth".
  • "give Soviet Union" → "give the Soviet Union"
  • Sources are archived. Great work! Thumbs up icon
  • Ping when done. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 16:03, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Some Dude From North Carolina all done bar "the Soviet Union was" (article is in BritEng so this is natural English for us). Cheers for the review. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 19:08, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
