Alright I will be picking up the review, both to help out my fellow Wiki Cup participants and to earn points for the GA cup as well.

Side note, I have my own GA nomininations (CMLL World Tag Team Championship, CMLL World Welterweight Championship, CMLL World Trios Championship and CMLL World Middleweight Championship) and need input on a Featured List candidate (Mexican National Light Heavyweight Championship) and a Featured Article candidate (CMLL World Heavyweight Championship). I am not asking for Quid pro Quo, but all help is appreciated - especially FL and FA input,

@MPJ-DK: I don't have much experience with FAs and FLs, neither with Wrestling, but I'll see what I can do. Thanks for taking on this review! Zwerg Nase (talk) 19:31, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

Anything you can do is appreciated, large or small.  MPJ-US  20:34, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

GA Toolbox

I like to get this checked out first, I have found issues using this that has led to quick fails so it's important this passes muster.

Copyright violations Tool

• I did not see any issues among the similarities that were noted Y

Disambiguation links

• No issues reported Y

External links

• No issues reported Y

Well Written

• "monuments in the 2015 calendar" should that be "on the 2015 calendar"

 Done

• "only very slightly" I don't think we need the word "very", slightly will suffice.

 Done

• "neutral zone" - can you link to that term? I am not sure what it means in Cycling terms.

 Done

• Same with the term "peloton" is there a link that could be added?

 Done

• "These including the" should be "These included the"

 Done

• "who came off the back of a", not sure I like the way this is phrased, I cannot put my finger on it though. Perhaos something like "who came into the race with a victory..."?

 Done

• "his teammate for this race.", I assume that team mate was Alexander Kristoff?

 Done

• "them, eventually to no avail" I would remove the word "eventually"

 Done

• "little later, when it" no need for a comma

 Done

• "leading at a maximum of half a minute." = how about "leading by half a minute at one point."

Hmm, the source says that he created a gap of half of minute which I would read as that this was the maximum gap. Writing "half a minute at one point" would indicate that the gap might have been bigger at one point, so I prefer the current wording, since it is more precise about the nature of the attack.

• "with Terpstra he" should be "with Terpstra, he"

 Done

Sources/verifiable

• What is the Reliable source status of ProCyclingStats?

Generally considered a RS in the WikiProject, so much so that there has been a template created for the site. Zwerg Nase (talk) 13:17, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

Excellent then this section is A-Ok Y  MPJ-US  13:20, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

Broad in coverage

• I think it's saying everything that can be said without becoming redundant Y

Neutral

• Just the facts ma'am and attributation to various statements on favorites. Y

Stable

• It's not a current or even recent event article. I see no problems with the stability. Y

Illustrated / Images

• Image do not have Alt texts, please add one for each image.

 Done (I think...)

• All image licenses check out okay.

General

• Disappointed that there is not a singles "Hi-deli-ho" joke in there ;-)

No one is more disappointed about that than I am. Then again, the Simpson history of cycling is rather bleak. On a brighter note, Homer isn't a big fan of bicycles either...

• I think the second paragraph can be expanded past a single sentence can't it?

I guess you mean the lead? Then  Done

• Table - is it normal for results tables in cycling to not be sortable?

No, this is not normal, and I do not quite understand why that should be necessary in the case of a result table? It is supposed to be sorted from first to tenth, no other sorting really has any purpose...

- @Zwerg Nase: - I believe that's the complete review for now. Not a lot to address which is what we expect for GA status so good work so far. I am putting the reivew on hold for up to 7 days to allow for improvements to be made. Let me know when you are ready for me to look at this again.  MPJ-US  22:32, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

I think all is done, let me know what you think :) Zwerg Nase (talk) 14:02, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

@Zwerg Nase: Based on a quick read through it looks good, issues seem to be addressed. I am just going to do one last read through to make sure nothing else jumps out at me.

Congratulations on a job well done. I am passing this for GA, the both will update it with the GA logo and I will update article class in a moment.  MPJ-US  00:58, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
