I am about to review this article soon. 333-blue 10:34, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Discussion and resolution of issues
Re: Canadian English
 * I have fixed two non-Canadian spellings ("color"-->"colour"; "criticised" --> "criticized"). I've run through a spell-checker, and it didn't find any additional mistakes. If you notice others, please let me know and I will fix them too. I have also tagged the article as Canadian English to avoid future confusion. Saskoiler (talk) 18:02, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Now, it looks OK. 333-blue 23:13, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Re: I don't know what "[]" means, as no URLs are given. 
 * I am not sure what this comment is referring to. There are no instances of empty square brackets "[]" in the article. Could you please explain in more detail what issue you are seeing? Thanks. Saskoiler (talk) 18:10, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * "...he reflected that the loss was "probably the most heartbroken [he has] felt..."


 * In the sentence above: "he has". 333-blue 23:07, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * And another one:
 * "its "individuality and [because he] felt [he] could train more alone and on a ball machine with [his] dad".[19] Raonic"


 * In the sentence above: "because he"/"he"/"his". 333-blue 23:13, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh! It is an accepted practice to minimally change the words of a quotation to ensure grammatical continuity within the article sentence. In the first example cited above, the original words spoken by Raonic were "Probably the most heartbroken I've felt on court." But, it would not read properly if the article said "he reflected that the loss was "probably the most heartbroken I've felt on court."" So, we use square brackets to make it clear that we've made a slight change: to replace "I've" with "[he has]". The meaning of the quotation is not altered, and the important words (heartbroken, felt on court) are preserved. The manual of style describes this briefly in the first couple sentences under the subheading "Original Wording" at MOS:QUOTE. Saskoiler (talk) 01:43, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh! I got it. Thank you very much for giving me this info. Cheers! 333-blue 08:34, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

I will look at this article for a while to see if it becomes stabler. If it does, it will be passed. 333-blue 08:34, 14 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It sure looks stabler, so it is passed. 333-blue 09:15, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
