Criteria
1. Well-written
- Prose clear, concise, and understandable
- Spelling, grammar, copy edit issues
- Lead
- Layout
- Buzzwords/fiction/lists Good use of tables to display statistics.
2. Verifiable
- No original research None apparent.
- Inline citations are from reliable sources
Done References 49 & 54 (Buffalo Rumblings) and 22 (SBNation) are to sports blogs. While I think SBNation and its team-specific blogs write useful and interesting content, I don't think they rise to the level of reliable sources. Reference 23 is to TMZ, and per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources, there is not consensus on the reliability of TMZ for BLP pages. Reference 21 is to the New York Post, of which there is also no consensus at the perennial sources list, although the supplement to the RS guideline does state that "most editors prefer more reliable sources when available." Since the statement cited by sources 21-23 is also discussed in reference 24, an ESPN article, you could probably just remove 21-23 from the article. - List of references properly formatted
- No COPYVIO Testing several sentences by Google search. One brought up matches at a possible mirror site which doesn't seem to be functioning anymore, and at revolvy.com, which attributes the content to Wikipedia. Another turned up wikivisually, which appears to also be a mirror site. There are no red flags for COPYVIO, and my tests turned up clean.
3. Broad in coverage
- Covers major aspects
- Stays focused on topic
4. Neutral 
5. Stable
- As of writing. Allen is participating in an NFL playoff game on Jan. 4, so a spike in vandalism could occur if he does really good or really bad. But long-term, its been stable.
6. Illustrated if possible
- Media tagged for copyright status Images appear to be used properly, according to image licensing information.
- Media relevant
- @Hog Farm: Thanks for the review. I've taken out the more questionable sources regarding Allen's high school tweets. As for the other refs from Buffalo Rumblings/SB Nation, I'll keep them there for now until I can find more reliable replacements. Regards, --WuTang94 (talk) 16:54, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- @WuTang94: Good job overall on the article. I've made a few small adjustments, like spelling out abbreviations. I also removed the external link to Allen's Twitter account, per Wikipedia:External links/Perennial sources#Twitter. The article is really close to GA status, great work!
