message: here we go again. i am assuming you made mods in this article on my comments from 1990 New York Giants season. 
* I checked on the reference-1, it requires registration to access the article. the same needs to be mentioned in the notes/link
**I really don't think that's necessary, I would tend to disagree with that. Quadzilla99 15:57, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: GA review comment

message: The following details are required before the article can go to FAC:
* Needs team staff details
* "Linebacker Harry Carson scored his first career touchdown on a fake field goal in the third quarter" - that is interesting. can you provide details? was he the holder, was he the receiver or did he run the ball in. the reason for the curiosity is that carson is a LB and i am not sure that i have seen a lot of LBs score TD on fake field goal attempts
* MINOR: Also, pro-bowl and regular season awards needs to be a sub-section under regular season and not the first para in post-season
* Images from the season. -- Kalyan 07:57, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for File:1986Giants.jpg

message: Putting this here for now, as it may be useful for source material: The New York Daily News posted a "reprint" of the original 1987 story about the NFC Championship game here.—Twigboy (talk) 17:28, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  New reference 

message: I'm going to keep this as a GA after review. However, refs #2 and 49 are dead links, and I'd prefer that the cite templates are used. However, format-wise they look fine, so I'm not going to push it, though I do think it should be done. Wizardman 02:13, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
