It has been suggested that Hack was the inspiration for the character of Jimmie Dugan. After comparing his bio with that of Jimmie Foxx, I have to conclude that the latter has a much stronger claim. Clarityfiend 01:45, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
In reading the article, it claims Wilson had 56 home runs in 1930. However, according to a linked article of home run champions by year, Babe Ruth is credited with having the most with 49 in 1930. Can anyone explain this please? ~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sirvice626 ( talk • contribs) 07:51, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Okay, time to start. I'm time constrained at the moment, so I'm going to do this review in sections.
More to come. – Muboshgu ( talk) 23:23, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
Continuing my review, sorry for the delay...
That's all I can see for now. I'll add anything else I come across, and the article is now on hold for a week to allow for improvements. – Muboshgu ( talk) 19:37, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
New issue: a sentence in the "Life after baseball" section needs a citation. "A Martinsburg street is named Hack Wilson Way in his honor." Otherwise, I think I can close this as a pass. – Muboshgu ( talk) 17:34, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
I've just returned from my vacation. Thanks to all who helped promote this to GA status. Job well done. Orsoni ( talk) 11:58, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
Towards the end of the piece, it mentions an off-season trade to the Cardinals, and a subsequent early-season trade from St. Louis. So shouldn't the Cardinals be listed at the top of the article amid the teams he played for? [sign] FLORIDA BRYAN
