Mitchell is rumoured to be dating Maximilian Sadka, another local City Beach resident. CharlesChips (talk) 08:52, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

Not done: we are not interested in rumors. You must cite reliable, independent, sources to back up your request, without which no information should be added to, or changed in, any article. - Arjayay (talk) 11:24, 20 September 2015 (UTC)

I'll review this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 13:18, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

Images are all appropriately licensed.

• What makes the following reliable sources?
  • gymnasticsresults.com

    gymnasticsresults.com is a database that archives results from competitions. Most of the time they upload the official pdfs of results but sometimes especially for early 2000s competitions the results are just on the site. It looks like the Gymnastics Results citations in the 2007 and 2008 sections are not official pdfs from other sources but are just results listed on the website. If you want I can replace these with Source 6 since it lists her competition results. -Riley1012 (talk) 21:09, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

    If you can show it's reliable it's fine to keep it; I just can't tell whether it's some kind of official organization or just a one-person labour of love. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:49, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

    I've removed those that aren't linked to an official pdf. -Riley1012 (talk) 23:20, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

    Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear about what I meant. You have it in the citations as being published by "International Gymnastics Federation", which is the governing body of gymnastics. If that's correct, the website is completely reliable and you don't have to remove any of the citations. However, I can't see any evidence that it's connected to the FIG, or that any of the PDFs or other pages are official in any way. How were you able to tell it's an FIG publication? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 01:46, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

    Take reference 13 as an example, the FIG logo is in the top left corner. -Riley1012 (talk) 13:04, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

    OK, that's good enough for GA. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:46, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

  • wogymnast.com

    This is a blog. I've removed this source and added a more reliable one. -Riley1012 (talk) 21:09, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

    Looks like there's another wogymnast.com cite still in the article? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:49, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

    Whoops, my bad. Fixed that. -Riley1012 (talk) 23:20, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

• No sources are given for the "Competitive history" section.

  Fixed. -Riley1012 (talk) 21:09, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

• Suggest linking adductor.

  Done. -Riley1012 (talk) 21:09, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

• What is "podium training"?

  Added link to podium training. -Riley1012 (talk) 21:09, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

That's all I have. The article is a straightforward account of her career and the prose is of GA quality. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 13:41, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

Passing. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 21:46, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Gemma Frizelle

Improved to Good Article status by Riley1012 (talk). Self-nominated at 19:59, 18 August 2022 (UTC).

• Article is a newly passed GA and has not been on DYK before. Well sourced, appears neutral, no copyright violation concerns. Article says she is the second Australian woman to medal at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships and the first to win gold, so the hook fact is valid. QPQ is done. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:40, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
