I'll review this article shortly. Wizardman 23:03, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
Here are the issues I found:
- "and was trying to secure a spot for the 2014 Winter Paralympics." 2014 WP can be linked, I presume an article will be made soon if not already.
- Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- "Soyer was diagnosed leukemia and doctors" diagnosed with
- Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- "Soyer trains at Mt Hotham" Is there a period after Mt? I'd think so but in Aus. English there might not be, so checking.
- Not in Australian English, no. The rule is that there is no dot if it ends with the last letter. Changed to "Mount Hotham" and linked. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- "and in Colorado in the United States." Not sure if US is needed. Might be helpful but feels just tacked on.
- It balances the "in Australia". Colorado is linked in the previous paragraph, but many Australians will think of it as a sportswear chain. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- Any updates on the 2014 paralympics training besides that he's trying to earn a spot?
- Not yet. Saw him in December. La Molina in Spain in a few weeks time is make-or-break. I'll update the article then. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- "That year, Liberty Skis signed" the Liberty.
- Uh, no. Changed to "Liberty Skis Corporation". Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
I'll put the article on hold and will pass when fixed. Wizardman 00:06, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- All points have been addressed. Hawkeye7 (talk) 02:52, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- Everything checks out now, so I'll pass the article. Wizardman 03:03, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
