I found four issues with this Boat Race article this time:

Crews

• Any there any images of the crewmembers you could add here?

  None at this time. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:50, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Race

• Move the image of the course to this section.

  I'd prefer to leave it in the background as this is discussed as being the first time the course was used. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:50, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

• "The conditions for the race were "of the most inclement possible" and the water "very rough"." Change to "The conditions for the race were described as "of the most inclement possible" and the water "very rough"."

  Attributed. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:50, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

• "Cambridge won the toss and elected to start from the Middlesex station, handing the Surrey station to Oxford." Source here please.

  Per MacMichael p. 123, as was the previous sentence ending ".... allowed Oxford to take the lead". The Rambling Man (talk) 20:50, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

That's all the issues I could find. I will promote after these issues are addressed. good888 (talk) 20:25, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, all comments addressed and/or responded to. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:50, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
