• ... that one of the duties of Arch Wolfe as an NFL general manager was to prevent his players from fighting the referees? Source: St. Louis Post-Dispatch ("He even acted as a 'fight referee.' Once he hopped the rail and sped out onto the field to separate a fuming Cardinal from an official whose calls had proved highly irritating.")

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

• Added some cats.
• He was in the MLB team's cat instead of the NFL one. I changed it.
• Change lead to American professional football.
  • Changed.
• "Chicago / St. Louis Cardinals from 1933" to "Chicago / St. Louis Cardinals of the National Football League (NFL) from 1933"
  • Changed.
• No date for the pic I guess?
  • Added that it was in 1950.
• "He worked with a rug-cleaning business owned by Charles Bidwill which led to his opportunity in sports" change to "future Chicago Cardinals executive Charles Bidwell"
  • Changed.
• Once you change the above, we can probably remove "which led to his opportunity in sports" otherwise that sentence gets a little wordy?
  • Changed.
• If you do the stuff above, then unlink Chicago Cardinals in the first sentence of the next section.
  • Changed.
• "He served in the position of business manager and, starting in 1936, acted as their general manager" Add commas where bolded.
  • Changed.
• Did you see in the navbox where it says he was an assistant coach? What's that all about?
  • That was added here (after I had created the article) – I changed it to "Executives" since he was not a coach.
• Is there any info on where he went to high school or college or anything?
  • His early life was pretty obscure.

That's all. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 13:35, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
