Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the {{done}} tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)}

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Prose

Lede

• UEFA Euro 2000 Group D - can probably just say "Group D". Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:26, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• roup stage as runners-up - probably worth saying who behind. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:26, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• Same for group B Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:26, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• Probably worth including something from the post-match section in the lede. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:26, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• Perhaps mention Totti won MOTM? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:26, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

  All done. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 14:54, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

General

• The winners of each group then faced the runners-up from the other groups in quarter-finals, the winners progressing to the semi-finals - nitpick, but "the winners" here repeted but refer to different matches. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:33, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• That match represented the last time prior to the 2000 final that the sides had faced one another. - doesn't seem all that notable that both teams hadn't played each other in the last two years. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:33, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• I feel like Totti being MOTM could be in the match summary. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:33, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• noting that "Everybody - caps in middle of sentence. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:33, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
• France's manager remarked on his side's determination to hold both the European Championship and World Cup titles - I think it's fair to name him Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:33, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

  All kind of done bar one, the "last match" between sides is invariably something which is discussed before such games, so I see literally no harm in it being included here. Also, I added MOTM to the post-match section rather than the match summary. Somehow, with all the footnotes and confusion over the winner, I neglected to include it in the main body. But it's there now (and reflected in the lead). The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 14:56, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

Lee Vilenski, all done, to your satisfaction I hope. Let me know. Cheers, as always, for the review. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 14:56, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, ideal. I can see that, althought I would assume two teams wouldn't meet between two big tournaments like this, but it's fine to keep. Some of your best work, I was enjoying the read. Keep 'em coming. Promoting. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 15:00, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
