  • I'm not sure you should be using an em-dash here, rather it ought to be an en-dash. Indeed, later in the lead you have " the East-West rivalry" hyphenated...
Page renamed.
  • " 62–49–3," this could use some "hover over" text or similar for those who aren't aware this means W-L-T.
Added. Now signifies East wins/West wins/ties.
  • "played in the East-West rivalry" is this an ENGVAR thing when you say a coach "played" in the rivalry?
I have updated this so it is more clear that Lambeau was in the rivalry as a player but later inducted to the HOF as a coach.
  • "Milwaukee Journal Sentinel " should be in italics.
Done.
  • "on November 30, 1905 at" comma after 1905.
Done.
  • The lead says it was played annually since 1905 but there's no sign of a 1906 edition.
The article notes that the district cancelled the 1906 game only to reverse the decision. Added to lead.
  • Should the table of results have a footnote relating to the uncertainty over the score of the 1905 match?
Sure, if you feel it should, but I'm not sure how to add it via source editor.
  • " to win 7 straight" seven.
Fixed.
  • " Despite fears of the series.... " too many run-on clauses here.
Fixed.
  • Where is the Spanish flu fears/cancellations referenced?
Ref added.
  • " Green Bay Press-Gazette" italics.
Fixed.
  • " seven of the next 16" seven/sixteen or 7/16.
Fixed.
  • " citing near-zero " which temperature scale?
Added.
  • It's a shame attendance isn't included in the overall table of results.
I agree. It's not in the source, however.
  • "—East against Preble and West against Southwest--" looks like an em-dash and two hyphens. Suggest you replace both with en-dashes.
Fixed.
  • "The report of the first game from the December 1st, 1905 issue of the Press-Gazette." (1) fragment so no period, (2) date-> December 1, 1905 (3) comma after 1905 (4) italics for newspaper.
Altered the caption. I really do not think there needs to be a comma after the year (as it was or is now).
  • "1905—2005" should be an en-dash, not an em-dash.
Fixed.
  • Does the table meet the minimum requirements of MOS:ACCESS e.g. row and col scopes?
I honestly don't know, because I'm using a template? Guidance accepted here.
  • "NFL Alumni" alumni.
Fixed.
  • Tables aren't sortable so don't overlink terms e.g. Green Bay Packers is linked every time and no need for that.
Delinked.

That's it on a first run through. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 11:49, 30 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

OK, The Rambling Man, I've gone through and made most of the changes. I'm a little confused about how to implement the table fixes you talked about, so I would appreciate some extra explanation or help. Replies to your comments in italics.

Edit: OK, I think I did the MOS:ACCESS headings for the table of alumni? Still would appreciate feedback, as no one has ever raised this point on a GAN before. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 17:13, 30 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
I know, I'm sorry, I'm applying more stringent comments (which are actually optional, but beneficial to our readers). Thanks for taking them on board and working with them. I've made a couple of tweaks but I'm generally happy now that the article passes GA. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 17:18, 30 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
