• I edited the article and added a number of tags where information is not clear. I removed the Game 4 write-up, which seems to be about two different teams other than the Viiking. It's not clear which team the players belong to in Game 5. Yoninah (talk) 12:45, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

• I think I've corrected it. Thank you. Empire AS ^Talk! 13:07, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

• @Empire AS: thank you. But what about Game 4? And that word "However" in Game 5 is throwing me off; could you identify which teams the players in the previous sentence play for? Yoninah (talk) 13:26, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

• @Yoninah:, I've corrected it too :). But a user has raised some issues about team articles on Talk:Galle Gladiators in 2020 which I think should be solved first. Thank you. Empire AS ^Talk! 15:01, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

• Currently at AFD; on hold until discussion there concludes one way or the other. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:41, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

• AFD was closed and article remains; nomination continues at Template:Did you know nominations/Jaffna Stallions in 2020 as part of a five-article combined hook. This page will remain open in case until that page has been closed or the articles unbundled. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:41, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Reviewing... Edge3 (talk) 04:06, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

This is part of a multi-article hook, as explained at the main nomination, Template:Did you know nominations/Jaffna Stallions in 2020. QPQ not required. New enough when nominated. Long enough and neutrally written. I copyedited the article to improve quality and grammar. No copyvio detected. Verified this article's portion of the final hook, posted at the aforementioned nomination. This nomination should not be promoted until the main review concludes at Template:Did you know nominations/Jaffna Stallions in 2020. Edge3 (talk) 03:51, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
