All references need an |access-date parameter. I noticed refs. 41 and 58 did not.
There should also be consistency in what is used in the |website= parameter. For example, ref. 17 lists ESPN while ref. 34 has ESPN.com
Hi! Thank you so much for the review - I’ve read over all of the comments and will get to addressing them as soon as possible (likely Monday morning -I’m currently out of town without access to a computer). I don’t have any questions at the moment but I’ll be sure to ask if any come up! 107.115.239.134 (talk) 19:09, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Riley1012 - I've done my best to address the comments that you've laid out in your assessment. I have made corrections to the prose as directed, and have provided citations to the listed statements. I've also made sure that access dates have been added to those references that did not previously have them, and checked for consistency between website parameters to the best of my ability. If I've missed anything, please let me know and I'll get to correcting it - I'll also be on the lookout myself. Thank you! Joeyquism (talk) 03:26, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
