How could Johnson declare major league status if the NL had already said no?
It seems as if Johnson just did not agree with the NL's demands regarding their agreement. I reworded that sentence to reflect that (see ). -- LuK3(Talk)13:07, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
What relevance does Joseph Gordon have to the Gordon Highlanders (apart from the same name), was his father in it or something?
The article mentions Hilltop Park's lease expired but theres no mention of there being one earlier. Was it built and then leased to the Highlanders or did they own it?, sell it and lease it back and from whom?
Why were the Yankees kicked out of the Polo Grounds?
I found a source that stated the Giants manager was upset with the Yankees attendance and number of home runs so he decided to evict them (see ). -- LuK3(Talk)11:55, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
I know you're linking to teams seasons, rather than the actual team, but it does get a little misleading when the links on team names go to the season page. It should be made clearer.
Polo Grounds double-linked in Fans and why the sudden inclusion of V at the end?
I removed the link (see ). The reason for the "V" was because the Polo Grounds were actually different stadiums. -- LuK3(Talk)02:15, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
It would help to clarify that Barcelona, Real Madrid and Man Utd are association football clubs. Likewise that the Cowboys are an American football club
WP:OLINK on repeated references to MLB Advanced media, NY Times etc.
I was under the impression each reference is considered standalone and therefore links for publications provide context. -- LuK3(Talk)01:45, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
Source 466, that source mentions the Bleacher Creatures doing homophobic chants, but that isn't included in the article when it should be mentioned they made a little more than a hostile environment towards opposition players.
@LuK3:, that concludes my review. A little exhaustive I know! Please ping me when you've had a chance to have a look at the points i've raised and I'll go over it again. I won't mark it as on hold and start the 7 day timer just because I know this could take a little while with such a big article. The C of E God Save the King! (talk) 11:19, 21 January 2023 (UTC)
