 * Symbol confirmed.svg Promoted to GA in good time, and very much long enough. Well-cited throughout and no copyvio or bias. QPQ done. Second hook is much more interesting, but both are cited from reliable sources, are fully factual and without doubt are not negative towards the living person mentioned. Good to go. &#39;&#39;&#39;tAD&#39;&#39;&#39; (talk) 21:41, 23 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Symbol question.svg I need help locating the footnoted sentence on "without winning any stage victories", please? Thanks. --PFHLai (talk) 15:36, 24 October 2015 (UTC)


 * I have added the sentence "Contador thus won the overall 2015 Giro d'Italia without winning any stage victories" into the article, with an inline citation. The information was already in the header, and could be seen indirectly in the body deduced from the list of stage winners, but was not explicitly cited. Thank you for pointing this out. Hope it is ok now. Oceanh (talk) 11:03, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * That works. Thanks. --PFHLai (talk) 23:05, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
