Yes, the entire infobox in all of my Canadian football biographies are sourced to the CPFE. ~ Rob13Talk 22:06, 16 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Early career edit

  • "In 1984, he was named an All-Canadian." - maybe you could explain what an All-Canadian is to non-football experts like myself   Done

Calgary Stampeders edit

  • Wikilink Calgary Stampeders since it is the first time it is mentioned in the main body of the prose   Done

Toronto Argonauts edit

  • Added a wikilink to Toronto Argonauts and right guard   Done
  • "The continued injury issues didn't affect the offensive line's success on the field," - no contractions please   Done

Adminstrative roles edit

  • "On June 29, 2017, Ambrosie was named to be the 14th CFL commissioner, succeeding Jeffrey Orridge." - should be reworded toOn June 29, 2017 Ambrosie was name the 14th CFL commissioner, succeeding Jeffrey Orridge.   Done
  • "The move was made official on July 4." - perhaphs this could be reworded to say The move was made offical five days later.   Done
