It's been on the oldest noms long enough, so I'll give this a review. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 14:16, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found:

  • "The team will play" fix tense, since the season's over no future/present tense should exist.
  • "The team was captained by Zack Novak who became one of the forty Academic All-American finalists for the second year in a row and Stu Douglass." add commas after Novak and row
  • Have Mike Jackson link to the right guy (who i don't think is on the disamb page, so unlinking is okay as well).
  • "The 2010 class includes" tense
  • "2010–11 team's front court will be composed of" tense
  • "Thus, he will be able to join the team following the completion of the fall 2010 semester." tense
  • To me, it's a bit odd to see the accolades section bigger that the regular season one. Not sure what can be moved around or trimmed, but it did catch my eye. It's a fairly significant departure from last year's Michigan basketball article, which in terms of structure I think is much better.
    • I am not going to lie here. Last year the regular season section was game-by-game and this year it was highlighted games. I am not really going to be putting that much effort into article creation going forward and this article reflects that. For college basketball, which can have as many as 40 games, I do not believe game-by-game is required at GAC. I could be wrong.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:44, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "to make 4 three point shots." four
  • "It was Michigan first" Michigan's
  • "Breslin Center 1997" since 1997
  • "The team has had" had
  • I don't really like the structure of the regular season article. It would be better chronologically, with at least a few non-conference games added in if they were of importance. The way it's written now almost creates a POV.
  • "After starting the conference schedule with a 1–6 record" comma after record
  • Multiple deadlinks exist: see here. Some you can just remove the url, others may need a new source.

I'll put the article on hold then give it another read through once these issues are fixed. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 16:31, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the stuff checks out, but I would like the accolades spread out in the regular season section, with perhaps the end of the season ones moving to after the postseason part. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 14:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks ok now so will pass. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 01:08, 14 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
