I'll review this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 18:44, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Images are appropriately tagged.

• What makes the following reliable sources?
  • prostinternational.com
    • Seems like a reasonable enough media website. The article is a direct interview with Proctor himself so the information is from the man himself.--EchetusXe 12:30, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

      Actually it seems to be a work experience program for students but it looks like it has oversight so struck. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 13:03, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

  • sbnation.com -- seems to be a fan community
    • I've just removed that line.--EchetusXe 12:30, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

      Looks like there's still a citation using it? FN 85, used twice. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 13:03, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

      • Ah I've corrected that now.--EchetusXe 10:28, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
• "Rotherham had cover as they had already signed strikers Freddie Ladapo and Carlton Morris earlier in the transfer window": what does "cover" mean here?
  • They already had players in that position. I've rephrased it.--EchetusXe 12:30, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

Those are the only issues. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 19:05, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Many thanks!--EchetusXe 12:30, 3 September 2022 (UTC):

Looks good; passing. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 00:06, 5 September 2022 (UTC)

Proctor's scissor-kick goal (March 2022)

• ... that Jamie Proctor won Port Vale's Goal of the Season award after scoring a scissor-kick volley (pictured) against Sutton United? Source: However, there was only ever going to be one winner, as Jamie Proctor won the award for his outstanding scissor-kick volley against Sutton United at Vale Park.
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Battle of Benfleet

Improved to Good Article status by EchetusXe (talk). Self-nominated at 15:54, 5 September 2022 (UTC).

• The article has been promoted to GA status. It is neutral, uses inline citations and I cannot see any copyright violations. The hook is good and cited in the Career/Port Vale section of the article. The image is free, and used within the article. QPQ has been done. - JuneGloom07 Talk 01:02, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
  • @EchetusXe and JuneGloom07: I can't find the source that specifically calls this kick a "flying volley"? If that could be cited in the article, that would be appreciated :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 00:00, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
    • Actually, scissor-kick is more accurate and better sourced, so let's just use that phrase.EchetusXe 18:59, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
      • Happy to go with scissor-kick volley too. - JuneGloom07 Talk 03:30, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Spotchecks

EchetusXe, I realized after I completed the GA review that I should have done some spotchecks as part of the review. I've done a few, and have found a couple of issues:

• FN 16 cites "Proctor was on the fringes of the "Lilywhites" first-team squad during the 2010–11 season and had to wait until the last game of the season to score his first senior goal in a 3–1 win against Watford at Deepdale, by which stage Preston's relegation into League One had already been confirmed after a disappointing season under the management of Phil Brown." As far as I can see there's no mention of Phil Brown in the source.
• FN 17 cites "Proctor was injured with a double hernia in October 2011." The source just says a hernia, not a double hernia. FN 6 does say double hernia so you could just add that.
• FN 25 cites "He made his "Shrews" debut the next day, playing 90 minutes in a 2–2 draw with Colchester United at the New Meadow." The source covers the game but doesn't mention that Proctor played.

These are all pretty minor, but given there are three of them I checked about another fifteen or twenty and found no other issues. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:05, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

Okay thanks I've updated those bits.--EchetusXe 10:03, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

Fixes all look good; thanks. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 10:29, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
