I will be taking on this review. As usual, I will fill out my GA Criteria form followed by prose review. My initial review should be up by tonight (UTC). -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 03:01, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As the whole article is a biography, it would be wise to change the name of the Biography and career section to just "Career"
Simplified.
Do you know what "law office" Crosby joined after starting NY Law School? If so, this should be included, if not, then its good.
No the name is not known. I was really bothered by the lack of info, and that was one specific thing that annoyed me.
Two run-on sentences that would read better if split up:
He accepted the position, and on the twelfth of the same month, he coached his first game and became the second head football coach of the program. As they are separate thoughts, I would end the first part after "position" and start with "On the twelfth..."
I agree. Split.
The loss continued a losing streak from the previous season, which was extended when Navy was defeated three days later by Princeton in a 28–0 shutout. This one should end at the first comma and start a new sentence: "The streak was further extended..."
Ditto.
The award was made Gorham Manufacturing Company, and presented to him on December 22. I believe you are missing the word "by" in the beginning of that sentence, ie "was made by Gorham..."
I could swear that it was there yesterday... anyways, I added the "by".
In the last section of this section it says that Crosby contracted a "severe cold"... Did Crosby know that he had contracted this "cold"? If he did not, the word "however" is appropriate as that word means in contradiction of. If he knew that he contracted the cold (not typhoid fever) then I would split the last few paragraphs into a separate section entitled Death or something of the sort and start with "While he was coaching...."
Although it is not stated, most sources imply that the illness was a complete surprise to Crosby.
That's my review, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. As always, great work, very well polished and I cannot wait to pass this article after these few revisions. -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 20:50, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
