Comments

• "Emil Fischer was born on August 15, 1887 in Plymouth, Wisconsin[1] and moved to Green Bay, Wisconsin in 1908.[2]" commas after 1887, Wisconsin and Wisconsin.

• I agree with the first one, disagree with the last two. A comma isn't need when connecting two clauses with "and". And the last one just doesn't sound right. No natural pause when I speak it out loud. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• Well Wisconsin is a disambiguator, so I disagree with your disagreement. The Rambling Man (REJOICE!) 14:59, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• ​ You win. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:33, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• I always win.... Srsly, all good and thanks for the link, I can never remember that. The Rambling Man (REJOICE!) 19:14, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• "He got his start in" was this because someone let him get his start or could it be "He started in..."?

• Changed to "He started in" « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• "travelling " in USEng, isn't that "traveling"?

• Done. I was trying to pander to the redcoats... « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• "around the country trying to get large cheese companies to open up plants in the city" reads odd to me "the city" when one is travelling around the country...

• Reworded. Let me know if that makes it any better. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• "began establishing himself as a successful businessman in Green Bay in the 1920s" could just tighten that to "established himself"

• Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• " supporter of the team " this in a new section probably needs clarification, just " supporter of the Green Bay Packers" would be fine.

• Changed "team" to "Packers". « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• " in 1926[6] and to the executive committee in 1935.[4] " I don't think it would do any harm to move [6] to the end of the sentence, it's aesthetically jarring where it's currently placed.

• Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• Be consistent with relinking, e.g. you relink Green Bay Packers Inc., but not NFL.

• Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• " the Packers training facility " shouldn't that be " the Packers' training facility "?

• Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• " the Packers articles of incorporation" similarly.

• Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

• " died on January 2, 1958 at" comma after 1958.

• Done. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

All trivial stuff really, so I'll put it on hold pending discussions. The Rambling Man (REJOICE!) 09:50, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the review The Rambling Man, all fixed or responded to. Hope you enjoyed The Ashes! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:54, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

I'll take one final pass later and let you know (or just tweak the sub-trivial things I find). The Rambling Man (REJOICE!) 19:14, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Looks good, literally, so I'll promoted. Nice work. The Rambling Man (REJOICE!) 09:34, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

Thanks The Rambling Man, appreciate the review. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:15, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
