You're going to lose an image that apparently is a copyvio, I have a bunch of copy cleanup, but there's only one real ref issue I found. Ping when addressed. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 02:15, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Images

One of the images is a copyvio (not your fault). File:Suryakumar.jpg was lifted from Cricbuzz at https://www.cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/92473/suryakumar-left-out-of-vijay-hazare-trophy-squad-on-disciplinary-grounds . It needs to go and likely may be gone by the time you review this. Other images are fine. Encouragement: Add alt text. Done Yes, it is removed already.
