Here's another list from the ESPY stable, the award that honors those male athletes with a disability who have excelled. I will endeavour to address the queries raised by those who care to review this list in a timely manner. Thanks in advance. MWright96 (talk) 17:22, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Surely Eli Wolff, as a Paralympian, is inherently notable and should be linked/have an article?
    Paralympians aren't considered inherently notable unless they won a medal, per WP:NOLY. Courcelles (talk) 12:41, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would reorganise the lead so that after the Wolff clause, you talk about "The Best Male Athlete with a Disability ESPY Award trophy, designed by sculptor Lawrence Nowlan,[6] is presented to the disabled sportsman adjudged to be the best at the annual ESPY Awards ceremony in Los Angeles.[3]" and then go on to talk about the previous three years awards, keeping the detail on this specific award together rather than split by the former award.
  • "who had won two" not sure you need "had" here.
  • "those who have competed in sledge hockey, mixed martial arts and wrestling have all won twice" reads odd to me, something like "with two winners each coming in sledge hockey..."?
  • Add row scopes.
  • Ref(s) -> Refs
  • Spaced hyphen in ref 1 title should be a spaced en-dash.

That's all. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:19, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

:Hi MWright96, great work! Please find my comments below:
  • Lead
  • was first bestowed as part of the ESPY Awards in 2005 link 2005 ESPY Awards
  • more awards than any other sport with four with two winners each coming in sledge hockey, sledge hockey removed duplicate unlinked "sledge hockey"
  • The 2017 winner link 2017 ESPY Awards
  • Winners by sport table
  • Refs
I have cleaned up the code in table to be consistent across the other ESPY award articles, added a navbox of the winners, and checked all links and refs. Cheers – Ianblair23 (talk) 23:20, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
