A fact from Malcolm Grant (basketball) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 23 December 2015 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that basketball player Malcolm Grant tied the Miami Hurricanes single-game record for three-pointers in 2011?
I'll have this to you soon JAGUAR 14:10, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Initial comments
"Subsequently he enrolled to the Villanova University to play for the Wildcats" - I would reword this slightly to He subsequently enrolled to the Villanova University to play for the Wildcats, but I'll leave that up to you
Changed per suggestion.
"He grew up with three siblings Unique, the late Sayeed and LeVar" - needs a semi-colon: He grew up with three siblings; Unique, the late Sayeed, and LeVar. Also, would it be worth mentioning what happened to Sayeed in this section? I know that it's mentioned in the Miami subsection, but feel free to ignore this
"In the 2007 recruiting class, Grant was a three star recruit for all Rivals.com, Scout.com and 247Sports.com" - why is "all" here? Are these websites the only the only of their kind?
Removd all.
"Orr's uncertain status as Seton Hall's head coach, made Grant to change his commitment to Villanova" - no need for the comma here
Removed unneeded comma.
"In 11 games for the Hawks Grant averaged 10.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game" - needs a comma in between "Hawks" and "Grant"
Added comma.
"Team head coach Joe Salerno commented on Grant, "Since seeing him for the first time back in 2013..." - this either needs a colon or should read as Team head coach Joe Salerno commented on Grant, stating "Since seeing him for the first time back in 2013...
Added colon.
"The point guard was also praised by the coach for his experience in the ACC in his college years" - is the point guard referring to Grant?
Yeap! The point guard is Grant and I put his name in the sentence instead of point guard.
NBL Australia website was updated and their archive was lost. I found a mirror site and put its url as the ref's link./ I also added one more link for additional verification.
On hold
Nice work with this article! Overall it's in great shape and once those minor issues are all clarified then this should be good to go. JAGUAR 14:25, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for addressing them! I've gone through the article again and can conclude that this meets the GA criteria. Well done JAGUAR 19:11, 28 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
