- I'll conduct this review. Seattle (talk) 22:08, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
- Comments:
- File:TylerWinklevoss.jpg needs a personality rights warning, see Commons:Template:Personality rights, other files look OK. No dead links.
- Does that need to be added here or at Commons? The Rambling Man (talk) 06:33, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- Commons.
- The lead could use the sentence for the "background" section as other articles have.
- Reference 12 (Financial Times) needs a {{subscription required}}.
- A mix here of "The Boat Race Company Ltd", "The Boat Race Company", and "The Boat Race Company Limited"
- A note on "Dark Blue" vs "Light Blue" would be contextual.
- Can you link "Goldie"?
- followed throughout the United Kingdom and worldwide. addressed this issue a bit ago.
- The lead and "race" section conflict regarding the women's length of victory and the reserve winner.
- Wonky eyes made me look at 2011 results when I was writing the race section. Fixed. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:33, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- Can you mention the winning time in the race section? Seattle (talk) 02:34, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- I have done that. I'll make sure these comments are addressed across the other GANs you have kindly agreed to review. Thanks again. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:33, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
- With just two minutes of the race remaining, Oxford were still in touch, but Cambridge inched away from them, passing the finishing post one-and-a-third lengths ahead in a time of 17 minutes 35 seconds.[20][5] I think it's kind of odd to say with just two minutes of the race remaining rather than go by a landmark, it's not a race dependent on time and "two minutes left" fluctuates by year; it's rather indeterminate. Can you give a landmark instead? Also, flip the references.
- Have re-worked it a little based on one of the other refs, and re-ordered the refs appropriately. Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:03, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
