"Ipswich Town and Ipswich Town, " I mean we were good, but we didn't get promoted twice in one season...
He he. Done.
Penalty needs dab.
Where's this? The first mentions in the lead and body appear to be linked.
I meant to link it directly to Penalty kick (association football). The Rambling Man (Been a while, I know......) 18:38, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Link "foul" in lead.
Done.
Link Windass in the lead.
Done.
Need his team name here as it's not clear who he plays for.
Done.
Full name and link for Isted in the lead.
Done.
Link header in the lead.
Done.
"in the EFL Championship for the first time" overlinked in the lead.
Done.
Didn't we have to link "aggregate" for those non-UK readers who don't understand that scoring method?
Done.
"The club had last played" last club mentioned was Hull...
Done.
"league.[11][10][12]" ref order.
Done.
"in the last competitive game at 2000 Football League First Division play-off final at the old Wembley Stadium," something not quite right here...!
Fixed.
"n the Football League Trophy Final." looks like we're going for "final" not "Final" these days.
Done.
"had introduced the video assistant referee (VAR) system would be used" grammar failing.
Fixed.
"whom 44,000" around 44,000 surely?
Done.
he had "seen in the Premier League penalties given for much lesser reasons than that". don't we normally inline directly cite quotations such as this?
You mean put a citation immediately after the quote? If that's what you mean, done.
"Wednesday's advantage" maybe "numerical advantage"?
Done.
"Statistics [30]" get rid of that space.
Done.
"Photo by De6strrrrr." do we do that nowadays instead of relying on the text below the image file itself?
Already removed by someone else.
" it."[33][28]" ref order.
Done.
"players, staff and owner Deijphon Chansiri thanked" I think I'd go comma-tastic here, "players, staff, and owner Deijphon Chansiri, thanked"
I've copyedited the sentence a bit.
Be consistent with formatting of BBC Sport, either all italics or all not italics.
I think someone has already handled this.
And consistent with linking it as well.
Done.
11v11 or 11v11.com?
Done.
Ref 25 SHOUTING and hyphen instead of en-dash.
Done.
Consistency when linking Sky Sports in the refs too.
Done.
Ref 33 is behind a paywall so should be indicated as such?
Done.
Ref 9 and ref 35 have same work, so be consistent.
Done.

That's a first pass, apologies if some of my comments are no longer relevant as time has passed since I last did a review like this! Cheers. The Rambling Man (Been a while, I know......) 15:39, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@The Rambling Man: thanks for the review, and I've had a look at the points so far. Commiserations on Ipswich's relegation BTW, it's so hard for new clubs to survive in the Premier League these days, even if you were promoted twice in 2023... — Amakuru (talk) 13:07, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I made a tiny tweak re: penalty link, but otherwise all good, so promoting. The Rambling Man (Been a while, I know......) 18:50, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
