 * I pulled the ITN nomination since no-one was interested in that anyway. So this is good to go in terms of reviewing. Zwerg Nase (talk) 20:50, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay! Will start with the review. have added some cn tags in the article and made minor corrections. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {Talk / Edits} 05:44, 22 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol question.svg Article is long enough, 5x expanded in time frame and nominated. Image File:Milan–San Remo logo.svg does not have a rationale for use on this article and in fact does not need one as it should be removed. I see no point in having non-free image in all year-wise articles of this race. Other images are fine from Commons. I could not find the reference that detour was of 9 kms. The post-race section has now got to many long quotes. Those should be trimmed or removed. Also, this seems to be your 6th DYK nom and hence from now onwards QPQs would be required. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {Talk / Edits} 06:55, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I have adressed all the issues at hand. Thanks for the review! I had actually done a QPQ previously, but added it at an earlier nomination since I did not really understand the system at the time. Zwerg Nase (talk) 11:27, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Just wanted to post a little reminder about this nomination. Cheers! Zwerg Nase (talk) 19:48, 27 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol confirmed.svg Sorry for the delay in replying back. The image and quotes issues has been sorted out. This ref supports the hook. All good to go. §§ Dharmadhyaksha §§ {Talk / Edits} 04:05, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
