- Reviewed: Living the Book of My Life
- Comment: Eligible per Rule 1d, because it only appeared in the "Recent Deaths" section of ITN and not as a bold link. Personal preference for ALT1.

I'll take this. I usually get around to reviewing within a week or so; feel free to ping me if I let it slip further than that. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 01:46, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A little dry, but in my experience this appears to be fairly common for sports articles. I made a few minor tweaks that I didn't see the need to wait on doing - adding the word "team" where it appeared to be missing, and moving her age at death to an earlier sentence. No concerns about copyright or close paraphrasing, sources look okay on a spot check, and single image is plausibly a user-generated upload. No issues preventing a pass. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 01:33, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
