Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the ✅ tag to state when something is addressed.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs)

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

 * Any idea on prize money? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 21:55, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I've added what the competition rules said in November 1937, but not made the calculation as I couldn't find any source saying what was actaully awarded. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 00:30, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

General

 * Horace Lindrum, the losing finalist in the previous - the previous para is talking about the event in general, so we need something to say "This year's event." Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 00:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)


 * With 10 entries a qualifying competition was staged - missing something here. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * With 10 entries a qualifying competition was staged. Fred Davis, Herbert Holt and Charles Read were chosen to play in the qualifying event, the winner to join the other seven in the main event - anyone else would have had 4 go through qualifying. Probably worth mentioning that Davis got the bye. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * The first match in the competition proper - we haven't actually mentioned the other matches. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Reworked the para to address the two points above. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 00:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)


 * Stanbury. Stanbury - can we reword to avoid this? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Smith.[12][17] Smith - and again Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

 * with just the colours left - this needs both a wikilink and a note to say that there was only 27 points available for non-fans. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 00:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)


 * 18–13.[21][22] [23] - error. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 00:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)


 * conceding 10 points - should probably have the word "handicap" in there somewhere. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Do we need the venue/city column in the schedule? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 22:03, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 00:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
