• Article is newly created (converted from redirect) and long enough. QPQ has been done. The six sources in the article are reliable (ESPN) or from official press releases. But there are a couple of copyvio concerns, especially phrases like "selected by MLS commissioner Don Garber", "was created on May 13", "appeared in at least 50 percent" which can be further reworded. Personally I find the ALT1 hook more interesting, especially on its focus on the bolded article.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:33, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
  • @ZKang123: Some of those phrases are common descriptors that cannot be reworded without misleading readers. I reworded the "May 13" one, but the others are criteria that are very difficult to reword without changing their meaning. SounderBruce 19:25, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
    • I will pass this then.--ZKang123 (talk) 01:52, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

• @ZKang123: Since the All-Star Game has been played, the hooks need to be changed to reflect who actually played. SounderBruce 05:09, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

    • Reviews needed for the above. ZKang123 are you available? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:43, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

ALT1a is dependent upon knowing who or what Liga MX is. ALT2 is borderline, but I'd consider lopping off the last four words.--Launchballer 12:30, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
