Feedback from New Page Review process

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Needs additional references for verification and to show notability. The Sun is not considered a reliable source, so while it might be cited for non-controversial information, it also doesn't count for notability..

Unofficial Deadlift record

The word "unofficially" from passage "He held the record until May 2, 2020, when it was unofficially broken by Björnsson, who lifted 501 kg (~1105 lbs) in his personal gym in Reykjavík" should be removed. The source does not state, that the record was unofficial. It has been organized by the international federation World's Ultimate Strongman, who have made an official set of ruled (as shared on their social media page: https://www.instagram.com/p/B_H5HrLgFrg/?igshid=1r5228d8wzufo) and a referee was present. Guniess World Records list Hafthor's lift as the heaviest deadlift (https://www.guinnessworldrecords.de/world-records/heaviest-deadlift). Eddie Hall and Brian Shaw not considering it official due to not being in competition is a private opinion only. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KanistrokephalosMystakon (talk • contribs) 23:24, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

this article contradicts itself

In the introduction I read "It was the first boxing match for Hall, fourth for Bjornsson" Also note the source article for this (https://mtkglobal.com/mtk-global/thor-bjornsson-vs-eddie-hall-takes-place-in-florida/) has been deleted. But when I check it using a wayback engine there is no mention there of the previous experience of either of them.

In the section titled Bankground I read "Hall had previous boxing experience while Björnsson did not." 7dy B (talk) 20:42, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
