 * When do you intend to begin? I just want to double-check the overview section. BaldBoris 14:36, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I will probably start with others first, so take your time :) Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:49, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Here we go, the following things need to be sorted out:
 * Route and stages: This section should include the fact that there was a team time trial and say something about the lack of ITTs in this year's edition.

 * Race overview: You should mention that Dennis lost the jersey because he too was in the latter group.
 * ✅ BaldBoris 00:44, 10 August 2015 (UTC)


 * I find mountainous affair to be too colloquial.
 * ✅ BaldBoris 00:44, 10 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Last paragraph: The final stage in Paris was won by Greipel, his fourth of this year's Tour. I would add victory after fourth.
 * ✅ BaldBoris 00:44, 10 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Classification leadership: When speaking about how time differences are not taken in the final 3 km, you should also note the fact that no differences towards the GC were counted on the last stage starting with the first lap of the Paris circuit. I also believe that this was a new rule.
 * ✅ BaldBoris 00:44, 10 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Classification leadership: The first sentence of the mountains classification paragraph is incorrect, since the points are not awarded to those who climb the fastest but to those who reach the summit first. You describe it a lot better in the second sentence, so maybe just merge those two together.

That's about all I could find. Good job! :) Zwerg Nase (talk) 12:47, 9 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Good job! There is one more thing now: You have now taken out the fact that Quintana lost 1:28 on stage 2, which I find quite important, since he would have won the Tour otherwise. So maybe you could include that again? But since I don't consider this to be a reason not to pass the article, it's a pass nonetheless. Congrats! Zwerg Nase (talk) 07:28, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for this Zwerg. Yes I know, this is because at that time of the race Quintana was just another favourite and shouldn't really be picked out over the others. I was going to include the others that missed out, but that's six full names, so instead named the three that gained. It still says that he lost time, just now it's indirect. Please let me know if this make sense to you. BaldBoris 09:38, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
 * OK, understood. Zwerg Nase (talk) 10:53, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
