Comments –

"The name of the championship trophy is the LPGA Championship Trophy, and is given out to the champions every year, which they get a replica to keep." The part after the second comma is awkward and kind of confusing. I'm assuming that the main trophy goes to the champion for a year. I would change the latter part to "and is given out to the champions every year; they receive a replica to keep." The semi-colon helps as well.

I'm counting 12 wire-to-wire winners, not 11. I have a feeling this was written before this year's event, and was never updated after Yani Tseng's performance.
- Actually you are correct it was off by one, the LPGA Championship has had eleven champions to do so on twelve occasions. CorrectedSaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 23:56, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
A couple of the photo captions have this fact and will also need fixing.

Key: Minor, but the hyphen in "54-holes" strikes me as unnecessary.

The multiple champions table has players sorting by first name, not last name.

Note a could use a citation.
- Corrected, now povided.SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 23:56, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There's a hyphen in reference 59 that should instead be an en dash. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 23:28, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Corrected, I used the stuff in the insert menu at the bottom to do it instead of spelling it out with an en dash.SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 23:56, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Will add that there are a couple stray brackets showing up at the end of Note a now, but the comments below are more important and should be taken care of first. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 21:06, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose lead only...

Shouldn't "mid June" be "mid-June"? Better still, just say "in June".
"LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association)" do this the other way around.
"is one of the four women's major championships played each year which include the " maybe "is one of the four women's major championships played each year; the others are the "?
To a non-expert, what does "stroke play" mean?
Ah, link it first time.
"The first year was conducted ..." you mean the first tournament?
" and is given out to the champions every year; they get a replica to keep" ouch. "The trophy, formally known as the "LPGA Championship Trophy" is presented to the winner every year, with each recipient being awarded a replica of the trophy..." or something.
Third para, can't you merge those opening sentences to make it read more elegantly?
"72-holes" no need for the hyphen.
Would suggest linking par.
Oh you do. Do it first time.
What does "wire-to-wire" mean?

I'll stop here, please deal with these, ping me when you're done, and I'll revisit with a comprehensive review. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:38, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sortable table, link everything linkable every time.

The Rambling Man (talk) 18:57, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I will correct it if you tell me that it does not violate overlinking and repeatlinking policies.SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 01:21, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I went and did it anyways in an attempt of being bold, so if it is wrong so be it, which the article now has many redlinks with respect to the courses.SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 20:05, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good, well they weren't policies in any case, they were guidelines. Plus we've always relinked things because in a sortable table, there's no way of knowing which item appears first once it's been re-sorted. And if red links upset you, you can always create some articles...! The Rambling Man (talk) 09:18, 8 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank for the explaination, I found out guidelines are different than policies on Wikipedia. I will pass on the creation of these articles at the present moment because just not enough time to dig up information and sources on them. So, basically are policies like laws in society and guidelines are norms and customs in reality, just curious, if you think that is appropriate rationales.SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 23:48, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's about right. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:00, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I just wanted to get some perspective on Wikipedia. I think more reviews are needed on this article. God, help me! This process is taking forever like on those others, which took almost 50 days. I guess that I better be a Job, when it comes to FLC's.SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 20:48, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Do I need to have notes, which are references for each years event, or can we delete them and use a general one for all the list to meet FL criteria and verification measures? Just curious?SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 23:01, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Do we need to have a See also section with these respective articles on golf list for them to be FL?SaysWhoWhatWhenWhereWhyHow? (talk) 16:34, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
