Thanks for the review. I changed the unsourced fact to one I found a source for. As for the intro, I'm not sure what is best to be done about that. I see no point in repeating information, especially as the content that is there at the moment does not realy fit anywhere else. The only alternative I

rowing are not covered - if these are not supposed to be part of the article then the article probably needs to be renamed, since these are sports too (governed by FISA). Also, the lead might need to be changed as fine racing shells are not seagoing. On the other hand, the article does cover
74:. Your lead section has information about the two forms of rowing that isn't available in the body of the article. The lead should only repeat what's in the rest of the article, and not have unique facts. If the lead is tossed out, the article should contain just as much information.- 210:
Are there any pages on wikipedia policy discussing whether the encyclopedia should use British or American English? I'm guessing we are supposed to use the original author's choice, but this article was originally removed from another one, and there are American, Canadian and British

This article has undergone extensive rewriting since the last request for peer review and has since gained 'good article' status. We would now appreciate any advice on what needs to be done to get the article featured. I will try to respond to any and all comments here within a day.

There is a citation needed for the sentence 'The first recorded race in America took place on the Schuylkill River in 1762 between 6-oared barges.' which I guess you are aware of.

I don't think the phrase "In the United States, high school and collegiate rowing is sometimes referred to as crew." should be in the lead - it seems to be a pretty obscure name.
314:
The lead refers "recreational" rowing, but the refers to rowers as "Athletes". These terms seem to be somewhat at odds, although I'm not sure how this should be resolved.
89: 78: 71: 308:
I'm not sure we need to talk about "reaction forces" in the lead, it could just say "the boat is propelled using oars" and then go into detail within the body.

can think of is making a 'basics of rowing' section at the start of the article, but then you would end up with two redundant introductions.--

Overall, excellent. With corrections definitely on it's way to FA in my opinion. I feel like going sea kayaking now.-

I don't know too much about rowing, but it appears comprehensive enough, well cited and has good relevant images.

Fix the images under the oar section as it currently squashes everything there(messes up the structure).

I agree with M3tal H3ad that one sentence paragraphs would benefit from being expanded or merged.

There seems to be a debate going on about whether or not the lead section needs citations. See
