Weight???[edit]

Ok, I'm no basketball buff, but there is no way an NBA player weighed 520lbs —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.229.135.107 (talk) 00:47, 16 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Assessment comment[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Fred Roberts/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Despite the heavy referencing, it is stub for me. The article needs further expansion to go higher. If you want, you can go for a second opinion.--Yannismarou 18:26, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you add an infobox? Also I think more information about the subject's life outside his career would be helpful. I defer to Yannismarou's Stub rating even though this is borderline Start. With a photo and infobox, it can reach B class without too much work. Best wishes. -Susanlesch 05:18, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
