The Monarchs did them two better, winning their past five games to reach its first bowl game since 2016"

Overall: Article meets eligibility criteria. 5x expanded. Meets length requirements. Tone is neutral and does not present any issues. Earwig's copyvio detector does not detect any issues. Can we add a source to the scoring summary box. Hooks are both cited and sourced. Hooks are interesting. QPQ is done. Other than the very minor request to source the scoring summary box, this one is good to go. Nicely done. Ktin (talk) 04:04, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- Ktin, thanks for the quick review! I've added two inline citations (the ESPN game summary and official final stats) to the "references" field in the box score template, and those are meant to cover both the {{Americanfootballbox}} and the score summary below, is that adequate?

- PCN02WPS looks good. Approving. Ktin (talk) 19:20, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Copy changes
[edit]Teams
[edit]They entered the game with a 6–6 overall record, and a 5–3 record in conference
— no need for a comma here. "A 5–3 record in conference" is not a standalone sentence. A comma and "and" separate otherwise separate sentences.Their first win came the following week against Arkansas State, but dropped their conference opener the next week against Houston
— missing subject in the second half- travelled probably should be traveled (one L) for American English
Summary
[edit]- Soos' → Soos's
- Fix
After a two plays
- Very good use of links for football jargon here
Notes
[edit]- References are archived (I see this was done after nomination, but this isn't a bad thing to do when you nominate a page).
- Earwig turns up no elements of concern.
- Images are all freely licensed (from the nominator, too!). They do need alt tags, which for most can be a simple "Refer to caption". You can use the
|Alt=
parameter in the infobox. (That infobox set with its strange parameter capitalization should really be changed over to standard, lowercase, underscore-using param names... Might need to float the idea to the project.)
@PCN02WPS: 7-day hold. All it needs are a handful of style tuneups and image alt tags. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:24, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Sammi Brie Thanks for the review! I have made the copyedits above and added alt text for the images (I believe I did this correctly, though I am inexperienced with doing that so if I made a mistake somewhere just let me know). I also noticed a couple iffy sources (SB Nation) so those have been replaced, and I ran it through some scripts to catch date formats, dashes, and archive the rest of the sources.

- Smooth. Things look good. Was surprised to see SBNation flagged as unreliable despite no listing at RSP. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:20, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
