I'll take this review. It will be used in the WikiCup and the ongoing backlog drive.

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

  2. Is it verifiable with no original research?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

    Pass or Fail:

General comments

  • The article seems very unbalanced. On the one hand, you have the first two sections, which are cited, precise, and detailed (perhaps a little too much?) On the other hand, the subsections of the "Professional career" section are woefully lacking in detail, with some no more than a few words.
    • As it stands, this situation contravenes MOS:LAYOUT, as MOS:PARA advises against subsections for short paragraphs and single sentences.
    • However, there are also issues with GA criteria 3a) and 4. I would expect this article to contain significantly more detail on Murphy's professional career; it also appears to be WP:UNDUEly weighted towards his college career: that section has 820 words of prose, whereas the "professional career" section has just over 200.
  • I would thus recommend searching for references on Murphy's professional career, or, if that does not prove fruitful, removing the subsections to comply with MOS:LAYOUT.
  • Once that large work has been done, I will perform the source spotcheck and scan for remaining issues. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 20:11, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
