I'll take a look at this shortly. Harrias ^{(he/him) • talk} 15:37, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

• And ref #16.
• And ref #19.
• And ref #20.
• And ref #22.

•  Done Joseph2302 (talk) 14:44, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

• Could the NYT sources be marked as requiring a subscription?

•  Done Though most of them I could access without a subscription. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

• Otherwise, all sources are formatted appropriately.
• All sources are to apparently good quality, reliable sources.
• Spotchecks reveal no evidence of COPYVIO or close para-phrasing, and verification checks out.

Prose

• "..as sanctioned by World Athletics (IAAF).." Wrong abbreviation.

•  Removed IAAF is old name for World Athletics, which is not relevant to this article. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

• "..at mile 14.." Could do with a unit conversion.
• "..for miles 19 and 20.." And again.
• "..around mile 24, passes Columbus Circle at mile 25.." And again.

• Having issues with how to get this to work with {{Convert}}, have asked on the talkpage for assistance. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:45, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
•  Done all the unit conversions now, with some slight text changes to make them work. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:54, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

• Consider linking 5000 metres and 10,000 metres.

•  Done Joseph2302 (talk) 13:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

• "2021 winner Peres Jepchirchir was.." Per MOS:NUM, a sentence shouldn't start with a number.

•  Done Re-worded. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

• "..of the race, and at the halfway point in the race.." The "of the race", "in the race" is a bit repetitive. The second could be cut.

•  Done Joseph2302 (talk) 13:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

• The coverage of the wheelchair races feel scant, and no mention is made of the results of the handcycle races, even though they are noted as starting, which seems an omission.

• Added some more details on the wheelchair events, looking for any information on the handcycle events (coverage is scarce, even the organisers' press release doesn't mention handcycle event: [1]). Joseph2302 (talk) 13:27, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
• Added the top 3 from handcycle race, but there doesn't seem to be any media text about them (not even from the organiser's own website). Joseph2302 (talk) 13:45, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
•  Done Have not found any more text on either event, and this is similar/slightly more detail than the 2021 event (which is a GA), so I think that should be okay? Joseph2302 (talk) 09:54, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

• Do we have any details on the non-binary winner, as this is noted in the Background section, but not the results.

•  Added name of non-binary winner and a couple of sentences about them. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:19, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Tables

• Could do with rowscopes to meet MOS:ACCESS, but this isn't a GA requirement.

•  Done I think I've added rowscopes correctly, though not used them before. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:48, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Images

• All images are appropriately captioned and licensed, and have alt text.

A decent article in good shape. A few nitpicks above, but broadly speaking this meets, or is close to, the GA requirements. I'll stick it on hold. Harrias ^{(he/him) • talk} 17:01, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

@Joseph2302: It looks like you've mostly covered the points I've raised, are you ready for me to look back over the article again? Just popping out to work now, but should be able to do so this evening if it's ready. Harrias ^{(he/him) • talk} 10:10, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

@Harrias: I think I've resolved all the comments, so it is ready for a re-review whenever you have time. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:48, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
