Specific Comments

  • References. Websites need title, publisher and last access dates at the very least. A couple at the start of the references are missing both, a few others are lacking acces dates.
  • Fixed.
  • Need a citation for the fact that 73,000+ tickets were sold, but 17,000 weren't used.
  • It's in the game summary section.
  • Added full reference in the game summary section, referring to the newspaper.
  • It's a trade publication.
  • Current ref 9 (Harry...) lacks a publisher.
  • Added.
  • For FAC (won't matter here at GA) you'll need your newspaper titles in italics.

  • Concurrently with Virginia Tech.
I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow folks to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.
