Take this one too.

"Cambridge saw Staite, Pooley and Wright return, while Oxford welcomed Young, Maclennan, Pinsent and Obholzer", add first names of all except Young here
Done. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:48, 14 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
"were almost a length up after two-and-a-half minutes", don't think this should be all hyphenated
I'm trying to be internally consistent. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:48, 14 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
- Fair enough
"Michels shouting "see you at the finish" as his boat pulled away from Cambridge, Jo Michels", swap the bits in bold around. I think that whole sentence could be rephrased
Rephrased. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:48, 14 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Remove 'Women's Boat Race' wikilink under Race section
Done. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:48, 14 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on The Boat Race 1991. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20140408224920/https://connect.bedfordschool.org.uk/page.aspx?pid=367 to https://connect.bedfordschool.org.uk/page.aspx?pid=367

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

This message was posted before February 2018. After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals. This message is updated dynamically through the template {{source check}} (last update: 5 June 2024).

If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
