I'll start this review ASAP. Just before we begin, to sort out confusion, I will have a general review then an in depth prose and source review. In the general review, I'll use the "GA tools" box. I feel pretty bad for the number of times this page has been started and deleted, so I'll try and start/finish this review quickly. MrWooHoo (talk) 18:20, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

GA Toolbox

 * Please resolve the issues noted here (besides the first note as this is a GA review). There are a couple of "weasel words" and some footnote punctuation problems. MrWooHoo (talk) 01:49, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Prose Review
Note: If you have changed the sentence that needed to be corrected, press Enter and start off the line with, then use ✅ or ✅ If the change was only partially done use, and or ❌ if the change could not occur. (If you would explain why, I would be greatly appreciated :P) To see code, go to edit source and copy the code.


 * "The Patriots played their home games at Foxboro Stadium from 1971 to 2001, then moved to Gillette Stadium at the start of the 2002 season."
 * Right now, only 2002 is linked. Link both words of "2002 season" to the 2002 NFL season article.


 * "This includes the current teams, the New York Jets, the Miami Dolphins, and the Buffalo Bills, as well as former divisional opponents the Colts."
 * Why not say "the Indianapolis Colts" for conformity?


 * See the Oakland Raiders subsection.
 * Is it necessary for this subsection to be so long? It seems like a play by play summary in the first half of the subsection.


 * "On the field, the Patriots have typically utilized an "Erhardt–Perkins" offense and a "Fairbanks–Bullough" 3–4 defense, referred to commonly as a 2-gap 3–4 defensive system."
 * See WP:NUMERAL. "Integers from zero to nine are spelled out in words."

Source Review

 * Fix these 10 dead links. I'd advise Wayback Machine to retrieve old versions. MrWooHoo (talk) 01:49, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Hi Just wanted to let you know that I have seen this and will try to get to your suggested edits over the next week or so. Thanks and sorry for the delayed response.  Sports guy17  ( T  •  C ) 13:23, 29 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Just passing through, and saw the missing image mentioned above is from an af.mil domain. Ironically, that's the same as a missing image on a recent FAC image review that I did. Sure enough, I was able to locate the new image in the same way. It is now at this URL -- Saskoiler (talk) 03:11, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

I just cut the Oakland Raiders subsection as unsourced; since that was the remaining issue that hadn't yet been addressed between the many (mostly) abandoned reviews over the past year I'll go ahead and close this. Wizardman 22:38, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
