 * Symbol question.svg New, long enough, neutral, sourced, no apparent copyvios. Needs QPQ. --Usernameunique (talk) 09:07, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Thanks for catching that distinction. Propose:

 * Thanks, that's a good correcetion. I changed "in-season" to "regular-season" for North American sport conventions. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:44, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
