 * Hello, I see the item has been declined. The references need to be placed inline at the points in the text which they are intended to support. The lead does not sufficiently preview the content; the reader is left to work out for themselves what the sport is; 'NBA' indicates that it is basketball but as a global cite this may not be obvious to the casual reader. It is not certain what league levels are presumed notable (see that page for more information) and WP:NHOOPS can be taken to imply that it is senior leagues only, although that is more about player notability. It appears you have a COI and you must read that page and also WP:PAID and make the necessary declarations. Only players 'notable' in the Wikipedia sense (I.e. there is an article about them) ought to be included in the players section. Please do not ask for assistance at multiple locations as this can cause conflicting advice or confusion and take up the time of other volunteers. Thank you.

 * To add to what Eagleash has said, the most pressing issue with the draft by far is that "notability" (a Wikipedia jargon term) is not shown by the references present, which are all primary sources. We need independent, in-depth coverage of the topic in multiple, reliable sources to host an article on the topic. Take a look at Notability. — Bilorv ( talk ) 12:04, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Alien and Sedition Acts
The first sentence of alien and sedition acts is cited from a different website which is stolen from a .org website. When you try to click the reference for the citation on that sentence it says error page not found or doesn’t exist anymore. So the proper citation does not exist anymore. I have done my best. To try and edit it but it wasn’t working and the old blank citation is still there. I was trying to edit it to “In 1798, President John Adams signed the Alien and Sedition Acts, which were passed by the Federalist-dominated 5th United States Congress and signed into law by President Thomas Jefferson” the proper and existing citation is

Citation: The Alien Act, July 6, 1798; Fifth Congress; Enrolled Acts and Resolutions; General Records of the United States Government; Record Group 11; National Archives. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:3024:1298:7000:3C6A:DE06:5FD8:F6DD (talk) 17:50, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

What's with the super-large font?
It makes the page look stupid and means I have to do more scrolling. Please change it back immediately. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:30EA:F500:D0BC:4915:7B28:2438 (talk) 19:22, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You probably zoomed by accident in your browser. In many browsers zooms in,  zooms out,  makes default size. Pressing Ctrl while scrolling the mouse wheel may also zoom. PrimeHunter (talk) 19:56, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
 * WHAT?   I actually did not know that either and just confirmed that my browser does that, which is kinda handy because I'm getting older and fine print is becoming a bit of a challenge.  Beeblebrox (talk) 20:29, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

My niece Joy Villa's grandfather was not Kenneth Hagood, but Herbert Pierce. Please correct/update — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:1603:E0:80F7:842:5FD8:14F2 (talk) 23:02, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Courtesy link: Kenny Hagood.
 * None of the people named by the OP are mentioned in the article, and I see no reason why they should be. Hagood is notable as a singer, and it's reasonable to mention relatives who themselves are notable and have an article, or who had a significant influence on his singing career, but unnecessary (and possibly intrusive) to give details of other relatives, as his notability does not confer notability on them: see Notability is not inherited (which goes to "Notability is inherited", a list of false arguments for notability). {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.209.120.67 (talk) 00:04, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
