Am going to put the review on hold to allow the nominator to address or query the points raised above. MWright96 (talk) 20:06, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
- @NASCARfan0548: I am trying to finish my last week of college online before I graduate, so my time is limited right now. Even so, Max, I encourage you to seek these sources out yourself. You nominated the article, so it's up to you to bring it to GA standards. Sometimes, that includes research for citations. Hope that helps, --Bcschneider53 (talk) 03:29, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

- @NASCARfan0548 and MWright96: I ran each of these three through the Internet Archive and was able to add the archived URLs. For future reference, Max, Micheal is right; this can be done without a bot simply by going to the Internet Archive in any web browser, pasting the URL you need, and finding the archived version. --Bcschneider53 (talk) 20:45, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
