I'll take on this review, as part of the July 2021 Backlog Drive.


### Huddersfield Town
[all of which as a substitute] Missing word.
[11][12][13][14] Four consecutive citations is a bit excessive. The last three are all match reports and could be combined into one citation (Wikipedia:Citation overkill).
[although made no further first-team appearances for the club] Missing word.


### Stevenage
[57][58][59] One citation is enough here (the fact that he signed for Stevenage is non-controversial).


### Burton Albion
[Despite having signed a new 12-month contract with Stevenage on 20 May 2014, Akins signed for League Two club Burton Albion on a two-year contract on 18 June 2014] Has he said why he made this move?
[He made his Burton debut in the club's opening match of the 2014–15 season, scoring the only goal of the game in a 1–0 away victory at Oxford United.] You use the same citation twice in this sentence; once at the end is enough.
[signing a two-year contract extension on 30 June 2016] I'd suggest dropping the word "contract" here (you've used it twice in the sentence already).
[20th-place] No hyphen here.
[He was named as Burton's Player of the Year of the season] Here, delete "of the season".


### Style of play
[During the 2017–18 season, Akins was predominantly used as a right wing-back; with his work ethic being praised in one of the most physically demanding positions in football.] Comma instead of a semicolon in the middle of this sentence.


### Personal life
Do we know anything about his life outside of football?


### Honours
[League Two: 2014–15] Specify, "League Two Champions: 2014–15"


### References
The references from the Yeovil, Carlisle, Huddersfield and Rochdale sites aren't working for me.


### Summary
Nothing too major, I think. I'll await your response.--Harper J. Cole (talk) 13:14, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

@Harper J. Cole:. Thanks for reviewing the article. I've gone ahead and made all of the above changes as suggested. I removed the four consecutive citations as they are actually all covered by the Soccerbase reference. I have archived the relevant non-working references. Whilst I have not been able to find anything in writing in regards to his personal life, I would say the "early life" section covers some of this and it's a bit of a crossover. Let me know if there is anything else. Cheers! SBFCEdit (talk) 22:11, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
Looking good! I agree that a lack of info online limits what can be done with his personal life; I'll promote to GA status. Thanks for the interesting read,--Harper J. Cole (talk) 23:05, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
