- "Most of the players who have won" have is redundant as the award is no longer in existence
- Fixed. When you say redundant, I think you mean passive Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- "given out nineteen times" I think this could be worded better, presented maybe? something along those lines
- Given or given out seems to be what is used in similar articles, such as the NBA Sixth Man Award Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- "David Robinson has won five IBM Awards, Charles Barkley has earned three, and Michael Jordan and Shaquille O'Neal have won two each." again all the has and have need removing as the award no longer exists
- Fixed
- "all also won NBA Most Valuable Player" remove all
- Fixed
- "additionally won both awards in the same season" remove additionally
- Fixed
- "1999-2000 and 2000-2001 NBA seasons" you need to use endashes instead of hyphens and I would provide a link to the relevant season articles.
- Fixed
- "The award is given to the player with the highest point total" change is to was and should probably change stands for stood in the sentence before
- Fixed the one in quotes; stand/stood is debatable as it could be referencing as you read it now, not just as when the award was given. Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Is there any way to shorten the width of the formula it stretches the screen on my laptop and I imagine it would do the same for most users.
- I abbreviated player to plyr and points to PTS, and it fits on mine Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The images need alt text and the you need to include a caption for the table and scope row to bring the table up to WP:ACCESS standards see MOS:DTT for more info
- Added caption, scoperow, and alttext Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- For the alt text you need to describe the image not simply put the name of the person who is in the image. Its for people who are unable to see images, therefore having the alt text as simply Charles Barkley is not going to help them picture the image. Plus the years in the table need aligning centrally.

- I have added that Barkley and Robinson are head shots, and that Duncan's picture is of him playing basketball (I would have had a headshot for him as well, but I couldn't find one). This is similar to the captions at NBA Most Valuable Player Award and J. Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award. With regard to center-aligned, row scope HAS been turned on for each column, and so has plainrowheaders, so it's still left. The aforementioned FLs have left-aligned year columns, so I believe the precedent is for left-aligned columns throughout the table. In addition, considering the horizontal size of the column, being left-, center- or right-aligned probably doesn't make much of the difference. But, if you so desire, I can turn off plainrowheaders.

- I can't find a guideline on alignment so I'd just leave it as it is. Personally I would the seasons to be centrally aligned but its just that a preference. NapHit (talk) 21:13, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I checked with TRM...there apparently isn't one Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 21:54, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Also don't force the size of the images, inputting upright should instead of 150px should be fine
- Fixed
- refs 2 to 5 need properly formatting a publisher and work fields need to be provided
- Added that Basketball-Reference.com is the work; Sports Reference LLC is the Publisher Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- ref 6 the page should be p instead of pp as your only using one page
- Fixed
- ref 7 redirects to the nba homepage
- Changed out the reference Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 15:33, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Just one more issue before I support, this sentence: "meant to determine which player was most valuable to his team" would indicate that every player from every team gets the award, as that's the way it reads to me. I would clarify that the person with the best score or whatever the formula churned out is the recipient of the award. NapHit (talk) 21:13, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I reworded it to "...meant to determine which player had the best season in the NBA that year", if that doesn't work, I'll probably just toss the clause altogether. I notice that the NBA MVP lacks a descriptive clause. The best score clause is mentioned in the formula section, but can be moved to the lead if need be Purplebackpack89≈≈≈≈ 21:54, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
