... that one of the duties of Arch Wolfe as an NFL general manager was to prevent his players from fighting the referees? Source: St. Louis Post-Dispatch ("He even acted as a 'fight referee.' Once he hopped the rail and sped out onto the field to separate a fuming Cardinal from an official whose calls had proved highly irritating.")

Pass/Fail:

Added some cats.
He was in the MLB team's cat instead of the NFL one. I changed it.
Change lead to American professional football.
"Chicago / St. Louis Cardinals from 1933" to "Chicago / St. Louis Cardinals of the National Football League (NFL) from 1933"
No date for the pic I guess?
"He worked with a rug-cleaning business owned by Charles Bidwill which led to his opportunity in sports" change to "future Chicago Cardinals executive Charles Bidwell"
Once you change the above, we can probably remove "which led to his opportunity in sports" otherwise that sentence gets a little wordy?
If you do the stuff above, then unlink Chicago Cardinals in the first sentence of the next section.
"He served in the position of business manager and, starting in 1936, acted as their general manager" Add commas where bolded.
Did you see in the navbox where it says he was an assistant coach? What's that all about?
Is there any info on where he went to high school or college or anything?

That's all. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 13:35, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
