What a game, glad to see it as a GA nominee. I have a few things on my plate but should start leaving comments in a few days.--Newtothisedit (talk) 18:26, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

@Newtothisedit I believe I've covered all of your suggestions; let me know if anything else needs to be done. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 05:10, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

Looks good to me, I'll pass it. Congrats!--Newtothisedit (talk) 17:15, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

GA Criteria

Article meets GA criteria

Lead

• Add something about Kansas entering the game seeking their 4th title and UNC seeking their 7th. Most collegiate championships articles feature this in the lead
  •  Done
• I'd add the specific score Kansas fell behind
  •  Done

Participants

• "a former Tar Heels player who took over for Roy Williams," add that Williams retired, right now it's unclear in the article of why Hubert took over.
  •  Done added mention that Williams retired
• "most lopsided No. 8 vs. No. 9 seed in NCAA tournament history" change to "most lopsided No. 8 vs. No. 9 seed matchup in NCAA tournament history"
  •  Done didn't change to that exact wording, but I tried to make this more clear
• Add mention of win over UCLA
  •  Done
• "the tourney's underdog, Saint Peter's" to "the tourney's Cinderella, Saint Peter's"
  •  Done but I expanded "tourney's" to "tournament's"
• "North Carolina's biggest rival, Duke" The wording of this is a little clunky. Maybe change to something along the lines of "arch rival Duke"
  •  Done changed "North Carolina's" to "their"
• "Kansas received a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament" Add what region they were the 1 seed of
  •  Done
• I'd add a sentence about Kansas's tournament path
  •  Done
• "Martin had been their leading scorer in three games" to "Martin led the team in scoring in three games"
  •  Done didn't change to that exact wording, but I tried to improve this

Game summary

• "Bacot ended with 15 points and 15 rebounds, becoming the first to have a double-double in all six tournament games" to "Bacot ended with 15 points and 15 rebounds, becoming the first player to record a double-double in all six tournament games" make sure to hyperlink to double-double as well. You could also mention Bacot pursuing this in the participants section as Kansas currently has more player background in that section
  •  Done changed the word in Bacot's section, and double-double is already linked. I will look to potentially add a sentence or two about some UNC players in that section.
  • Note - just added some info about Bacot and another UNC player in their section.

Media coverage

• I'd add the viewership/rating the game got in this section
  •  Done couldn't readily find the Nielsen rating (if you can find it I will definitely add it) but I did add viewership information.
  • For some reason, I didn't spot the rating in the infobox until now; the source does not explicitly mention the rating that the telecast received (apparently 13.2), so I've commented that out for now.

Spot Checks
