GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Alec Bohm/GA2. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

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.

putting up abatting - typo? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:30, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- Fixed — Ghost River 21:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
In addition to putting up abatting average above .300 in three years with Wichita State, Bohm played collegiate summer baseball in both the Coastal Plain League and the Cape Cod Baseball League. - these are two different things. One is saying the stats of Wichita, and the next is about other places they played. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:30, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- Fixed Separated into two sentences. — Ghost River 21:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
Infobox suggests he's played for the Phillies in 2020, but in the lede doesn't say this. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:30, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

The career sections could be subsections of a "career" section. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:40, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- Not done As going to college for a few years becomes more popular, it makes sense to have a separate "College career" section (see Aaron Nola), and those who play for Olympic qualifiers usually have a separate International career section (see Brandon Dickson) — Ghost River 21:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
Pretty sure it's "at bat" and not "at-bat". Happens a couple times.

- Fixed I have seen both used interchangeably, including in the references to this article, but the WP article uses a space rather than a hyphen. — Ghost River 21:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
"Bash Brothers 2.0" - by whom? And what does this mean? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:40, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- Fixed Added a reference that says it's the team that gave them that nickname. — Ghost River 21:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
He and the rest of the team took fourth place in the tournament, falling to Mexico in extra innings of the bronze medal match - probably also worth mentioning who they lost to in the semi-finals. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:40, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- Not done The tournament does not operate in a traditional semi-final manner. Instead, the top six teams qualify for a five-game Super Round, at the end of which, the top two teams play for gold, middle two play for bronze, and the bottom two are eliminated. — Ghost River 21:12, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

Review meta comments

I'll begin the review as soon as I can! If you fancy returning the favour, I have a list of nominations for review at WP:GAN and WP:FAC, respectively.

Article review

It has been a little bit since this article was reviewed, so I took a look and noticed the following:

There is little information for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 seasons, even though he accomplished a major milestone in 2024 to participate in the All-Star game.
The lead does not summarise all major aspects of the article.
The article has some uncited statements and paragraphs.

Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 20:31, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

There is little information for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 seasons, even though in 2024 he accomplished a major milestone by participating in the All-Star game. The lead does not summarise all major aspects of the article. The article has some uncited statements and paragraphs. Z1720 (talk) 21:30, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

I've removed or sourced all of the uncited content. @Z1720: - is there a particular reason why GhostRiver, the GA nominator of the nomination who passed (who is still active), was not notified on their talk page about this GAR? I see the GA reviewer of the pass /GA2 and the nominator of the failed /GA1 review were both notified though. It shouldn't be overly difficult to add further detail for the 3 most recent seasons, but I won't have time to work on this any further for a few days. Hog Farm _Talk 03:16, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

@Hog Farm: GhostRiver wasn't notified because GR did not post the original GAN template request, and the GAR script can't detect changes like that. I'll send them a notice now. Z1720 (talk) 15:33, 25 March 2026 (UTC)

It appears 2023-25 are now well documented. Sloopyploop (talk) 14:45, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

@Sloopyploop: I agree. I think the next steps are to expand the lead and add sub-heading(s) to the "Philadelphia Phillies" section (as it is quite long). Z1720 (talk) 15:32, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

I am admittedly still working on some things. I don't think there's a compelling reason to add level-4 subheads to the Phillies section, as Bohm's tenure there doesn't really have clean "stages," and I'm loathe to add subheads for every season. — Ghost River 20:37, 31 March 2026 (UTC)

I also don't think splitting into subsections is necessary. Unless there's something in the MOS that I don't remember, sections lengths are more of a matter of editorial discretion than hard-and-fast rules. This isn't even really an extreme case. I think we need to be careful to not enforce editorial preferences as mandates at GAR. Hog Farm _Talk 01:10, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

The Phillies section could be split in two, but not for every year. Or, it could stay as it is. His 2026 salary is present but his other arbitration salaries are missing. I'll add it if nobody beats me to that. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:59, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
