  • Comment: What are the floating references doing at the end? What are they citing? 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 08:29, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please sort this out: "Merrimack Valley Conference.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]". This is a prime example of WP:CITEKILL. Instead we need one excellent reference per fact asserted. If you are sure it is beneficial, two, and at an absolute maximum, three. Three is not a target, it's a limit. Aim for one. A fact you assert, once verified in a reliable source, is verified. More is gilding the lily. Please choose the very best in each case of multiple referencing for a single point and either drop or repurpose the remainder.
    Once we can see the references you choose we will have a chance of reviewing this draft 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 21:22, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Only independent reference is the Lawrence Eagle Tribune. Needs more to establish notability. • Gene93k (talk) 19:06, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
