  • Reviewed: To be completed
  • Comment: Article is also nominated for ITN here; if both nominations are successful, the ITN blurb will likely exit the main page before this is posted.

5x expanded by PCN02WPS (talk). Self-nominated at 04:25, 6 April 2021 (UTC).[reply]

  • It's already been posted on ITN. It's good to have covered your bases, but an WP:ITNR item was pretty much going to get posted barring page quality issues.—Bagumba (talk) 08:51, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

1. Well-written

  • "They were awarded an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament, and received the No. 1 seed in the South Regional." remove the comma
  • "The pre-game and post-game shows included analysis by Greg Gumbel, Clark Kellogg, Kenny Smith, and Charles Barkley, Seth Davis, and Jim Jackson" This could be re-written into two sentences by separating the analysts for the pre-game and post-game shows (ex: The pre-game show included analysis by Greg...., and the post-game show included Charles...")

2. Verifiable

  • Is there a source for note a?
  • References that need to be archived to a 2021 capture: 2, 6, 17
  • "This was the second consecutive championship game where both teams were playing for their programs' first NCAA title." Source?
  • "Baylor also became the first team from the state of Texas to win the national championship since Texas Western in 1966." Source?
  • Source for starting lineups?

Ref layout is good and copyvio check looks good.

3. Broad

5. Stable

Improved to Good Article status by PCN02WPS (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 21:21, 13 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/2021 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship game; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: For the main hook, I think we are going with "NCAA tournament" (lowercase) now, since the tournament pages got moved to lowercase "t".[1] Also, would something like "... top two overall seeds of the NCAA tournament" read better, or even just plain "feature the top two overall seeds of the tournament"? —Bagumba (talk) 11:06, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Bagumba: I think something like "... that the 2021 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship game between Baylor and Gonzaga was the first since 2005 to feature the top two overall seeds of the NCAA tournament?" with the same wikilinks. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:07, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Onegreatjoke: Go ahead place it here as an ALT2 (with the formatting), and I can approve it. Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 11:03, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Bagumba: Alt2 "... that the 2021 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship game between Baylor and Gonzaga was the first since 2005 to feature the top two overall seeds of the NCAA tournament?" Onegreatjoke (talk) 14:30, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Approved ALT2. ALT1 with "massive blowout" seemed like too much of cliche to be interesting.—Bagumba (talk) 15:50, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
