I found the following issues.

Background

"However, in August 2012, CECAFA General Secretary Nicholas Musonye said that it would be moved to Uganda after a request from the tournament sponsors, East African Breweries." Change said to stated and also link East African Breweries.
"However, CECAFA Secretary General Nicholas Musonye decided to move the remaining group games from the Namboole Stadium since it had been in bad shape due to heavy rains." Unlink Nicholas Musonye.

Participants

"Tournament sponsors East African Breweries set a US$450,000 budget for the tournament" Unlink East African Breweries as you are going to link it in the Background section.
"They replaced Djibouti" Link Djibouti.

Group stage

"The matchdays were 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30 November and 1 December." Rewrite to: "The matchdays were 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30 November and 1 December."
Add the results of the third place qualification matches.

References

Link more of the publishers of these sources such as Goal.com.
Refs 1, 8, 14, 21, 22, 24 and 27 are all dead.

External links

Remove all bar the offical website.

The dead references are the biggest concern for me, especially ref 1 which is used three times. Going to place on hold for now. good888 (talk) 19:01, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Good888: First of all thanks for the review. I'm going to implement the above changes except the point on the third place qualification. Matches weren't played to determine the best third-placed teams; they were ranked together as if they were playing in the same group and then the same tie-breaking criteria used for the groups themselves was used to determine who would go through to the next round.

@Good888: I've implemented all the changes you outlined above (except the one I just mentioned), and hopefully the article is now GA material. Happy New Year! Davykamanzi → talk • contribs • alter ego 20:45, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Davykamanzi: Thanks for addressing the issues. I am now going to promote to GA class. good888 (talk) 10:28, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
