Another Boat Race article... I've brought three or four to FAC before with some level of success, and I worked on keeping this one up to date, so much so that it was posted to ITN within hours and promoted to GA within days of the actual event concluding. As ever, I'm eternally grateful for each and every comment made here in an attempt to improve the article to something Wikipedia can be proud of. Cheers all.

In general, this article looks well written and covers the races well. A few niggles:
Coord comment -- I think we're just looking for a source review for formatting/reliability now. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 14:58, 19 August 2016 (UTC) reply
Source review:
Otherwise, sources fine for formatting and reliability. Spot checks not done. Sarastro1 ( talk) 20:59, 20 August 2016 (UTC) reply
Closing comment -- I won't hold up promotion but could you pls check the Build-up section for overlinking? Craven Cottage is the worst offender, showing up twice using Ucucha's checker, meaning it's linked three times in the article. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 11:14, 21 August 2016 (UTC) reply
