Fair representation without bias: It is stable. No edit wars, etc.: It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate. a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Pass/Fail:

Comments

• Add a sentence to the lead that summarizes his "Later life and death"
• If this is the correct all-star game, link Chicago Charities College All-Star Game
• "for the team." -> "for the Chiefs."
• In Note A about his last name, add a source that spells it that way.
• In the last paragraph of the lead, you have two consecutive sentences cited to the same source. You only need one after the second sentence.
• References:
  • Add an access-date to Ref 5
  • All references are reliable for what is being cited
  • Spot checks: 1, 5, 6, 8, and 9 all checked out.

Nice work BeanieFan11. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 23:09, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

• Hmmm... I know that images before 1930 are PD, but I'm less familiar with what's considered PD for after that... BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:49, 1 March 2025 (UTC)
