I've cleared off a few of the oldest Good article candidates, so I think I'm allowed to indulge myself with one I'm interested in now. From memory your work is always very good, so I'm not expecting too much trouble! Harrias talk 11:16, 9 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Lead
 * "..in matches between February 1997 to February 2005." Either use "between ... and" or "from ... to".


 * History: Origins
 * Given it is mentioned in the infobox, it might be worth mentioning their first match in 1894, even though it is pretty inconsequential to the actual rivalry.
 * "..who would lose their lives as a result of crash.." Should be "of the crash".
 * It might be nice to have a bit more detail about what happened in that 1990 brawl.


 * History: 1996–2003
 * "..once Ferguson's team trounced Arsenal 6–1.." While I like it, I don't think "trounced" is encyclopaedic language unfortunately.
 * Ref #41 doesn't seem to mention anything about four players from each side getting yellow cards.


 * Ferguson and Wenger
 * "The two managers have "exchanged some of football's best and bitterest verbal swipes."" I think we need to attribute that quote inline, given how opinionated it is.


 * Crossing the divide
 * The title of the section is maybe a tad journalese-y?
 * "Note: Matthew Wicks never played a senior game for either team" In the list he is referred to as "Matt Wicks", be consistent.


 * Statistics
 * The Honours table is too wide for my screen, and I use a 1366 width. WP:RESOL suggests we should support as small as 1024 x 768. Consider switching the rows and columns to make it a tall, rather than wide table.

Overall, as expected, a well-written and interesting article. Nice work. Harrias talk 11:16, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi, thank you very, very much for taking the time to review this. Have made corrections, hopefully to your liking. :) Lemonade51 (talk) 16:13, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
