I'll review this article shortly. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 23:12, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found:

  • The infobox mentions the Boston Braves/Doves, yet for manager it says Doves/Rustlers. Rustlers should be added to the player part as well.
  • "became National League (NL) champions at a 93–39 record." with a
  • What did he do in 1900 and 1901? It just jumps from 1899 to 1902. Same for 1904 and 1906.
  • He had a short stint in Newark in 1916 that's worth mentioning.
  • "On December 19, 1910, Tenney signed a two-year contract with the Boston Doves" With the Boston Rustlers, since their name was changed before the 1911 season.
  • "1952, at Massachusetts General Hospital, after a long illness." those two commas aren't needed.
  • Is there an ISBN for the Spink book reference?

Not too much to fix. I'll put the article on hold and pass when the issues are fixed. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 23:28, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Added information for all the seasons, added Newark, removed commas, added isbn, fixed infobox, and changed to "with a". I appreciate the review. Albacore (talk) 19:31, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
