I'll probably get to this over the weekend. One first thought: There is a large number of photos available from the event. You might want to look into adding 1-2 of them to the article. Zwerg Nase ( talk) 16:05, 16 July 2015 (UTC) reply

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b ( MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a ( reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c ( OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a ( major aspects): b ( focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b ( appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

Not too much wrong with this. These issues should be taken care of:

• Lead: You don't need any references in the lead if you give the information later in the text. That's what you should do with the info concerning how it is a buildup for the Ronde Vlaanderen.
• Poster: I find knickers a very colloquial and regional term. Maybe you can find a more neutral word, like underpants?
• Pre-race favourites: The Sagan part references do not really say what you say when it comes to his form earlier in the season. Also, his Milan-San Remo result is not sourced.
• "Paterberg−Oude Kwaremont": You should source the statement that this part is crucial.

Optional:

• As I said, it would be nice if you included more of the photos available.
• You could give information about how the route different from the previous year.

That's about it. Well done so far! I'll put this on hold for seven days. Zwerg Nase ( talk) 18:27, 27 July 2015 (UTC) reply

• Unnecessary reference removed.
• I've used "underwear" instead. "Underpants" doesn't seem right, somehow.
• I've removed some detail that wasn't in the source for Sagan.
• The Paterberg-Oude Kwaremont section is described as the key part of the race in "Route" – this is sufficient, no? It's supported by references there.
• BaldBoris has added a couple of good photos.
• I would describe any route changes, but it would by WP:OR/ WP:SYNTH, I think, as I can't find it sourced anywhere.

Thanks for your review, as always! Relentlessly ( talk) 22:26, 28 July 2015 (UTC) reply
