 * Lead
 * "He is the son of 1994 NBA first overall draft pick Glenn Robinson." Try to avoid having wikileaks back-to-back. Maybe something like "He is the son of Glenn Robinson, the 1994 NBA first overall draft pick."
 * done.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:35, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * "he committed to Michigan before" -> "he committed to Michigan University before"
 * O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:36, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * " three-star prospect" by whom?
 * added.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:39, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * "he was a five-star top 20 prospect in the national class according to some" should be a comma have five-star. Also, by whom?
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:48, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * " selectors, but did appear in" remove comma
 * I added a he instead.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:40, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Background
 * "was a first-team All-area selection" what does this mean?
 * Typically all-area means All-city and surrounding area. Something like All-northwest Indiana.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 04:00, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, ok. Makes sense.
 * "and Indiana State and Rivals.com rated him" -> "and Indiana State, and Rivals.com rated him"
 * O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:52, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * "He and Mitch McGary had" who is Mitch McGary?
 * That sentence and the subsequent one provide context and his name is linked. What more do you want?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:56, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, my bad. I didn't see it was linked.
 * "By the time McGary committed to Michigan in November 2011, Robinson had moved up to the national number 34 player ranking according to Rivals.com." unsourced
 * The reference for the subsequent sentence covers it. I don't think we need to put the same reference on two consecutive sentences.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:58, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Fair enough.

I'll finish the rest once I get off work today. —Michael Jester (talk &#183; contribs) 04:47, 25 December 2012 (UTC) —Michael Jester (talk &#183; contribs) 20:40, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I apologize for the delay, but I don't really have a lot of extra time because of the Holidays. I will reply back by the end of the week.
 * Once again, I apologize. I am finishing the review now.


 * Background (part 2)
 * "Robinson earned MVP honors with 33..." I suggest spelling out Mose Valuable Player (MVP), as people outside the sports world might not know what this means.
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:49, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
 * "Although, he finished as the highest rated Indiana basketball player according to Rivals.com and the Indiana Basketball News state MVP,[26][2] he was not a McDonalds selectee." Is there any reason why he wasn't selected? If not, it's fine.
 * Basically some selectors thought he was top 20 or top 24 and others did not. I don't know how many McDs selected last year, but he was outside the cutoff at the time of selection.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:51, 1 January 2013 (UTC)


 * College career
 * "eight field goals in a November 12 91–54 victory against" the 12 91 part looks weird to me for some reason. I'd try to reword it to something like "eight field goals in a 91–54 victory on November 12"
 * Done.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:56, 1 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Personal
 * "Robinson III's nickname is "Trey".[4][1]" -> "Robinson III's nickname is "Trey".[1][4]"
 * O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:58, 1 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Refs
 * Reference #14 doesn't have a work or publisher
 * publishr --> publisher.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:01, 1 January 2013 (UTC)


 * External links
 * "Robinson III at ESPN" and "Robinson III @ CBS Sports" Either change them all to "at" or all to "@".
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:00, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Article looks good; once these are completed I will most likely pass the article. —Michael Jester (talk &#183; contribs) 20:53, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

OK. Passed. Good work. —Michael Jester (talk &#183; contribs) 02:24, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
