Suggestions/Comments from NickGibson3900:
 * 1) Do you have a ref for the sentence "The first Women's Boat Race took place in 1927, but did not become an annual fixture until the 1960s." If not it should be removed because it could be considered as incorrect because their is no prove.
 * Yes, it's at the end of the sentence, currently ref 8. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:22, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) The section "Race" should be " Races ''
 * Done. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:22, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) The sentence "At Hammersmith Bridge, Oxford cox called "2003" to invoke memories of the narrowest margin of victory in the history of the event in the 2003 race." as a few problems. They are:
 * 2) It should be " the Oxford cox"
 * Fixed. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:22, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) Why did he do this? Was it to encourage his team to keep pushing?
 * Expanded. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:22, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) Do you have a picture of the 2011 race? Do you need to point out George Nash. Could you say "The Cambridge team in the 2013 race" or something along those lines.
 * No, no decent picture of 2011. Nash is the only rower with a free-to-use picture, and it isn't clear if that photo was of the Boat Race or just practice, hence the current caption. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:22, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
