[edit]I am currently finishing this page for a class at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Thanks for your patience. Heharper (talk) 18:51, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
Hillary- great start on your page!! I knew you liked Bobby Frasor, but not this much! You seem to be a complete and total sports fanatic! I should have seen you choosing Bobby Frasor as your topic from the poster on your ceiling! I know you will do a great job with this assignment because it is a topic you are passionate about and are interested in researching. Good Luck!! --Vknott (talk) 16:19, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
Peer Review #1:
Strengths:
-The inclusion of details from Frasor's high school career contribute to making the page a well-rounded account of him as a basketball player
-It appears that you plan to include details/stats from his time playing at UNC which I think will be a great addition to the page.
-The listed resources look like they are credible sources of information that would provide accurate information for the page
-Division of subcategories is logical and well organized
Suggestions: -I think a more detailed account of each of his college seasons would make your page even stronger - you could consider viewing his Player Bio on Tarheelblue (http://tarheelblue.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/frasor_bobby00.html) or ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/player/profile?playerId=27015) to get a brief summary of his statistics and accomplishments over each season. -Just a stylistic opinion: it may appear more organized if you use the sections for each separate year to explain the individual season statistics, and then the "Key statistics" area could be geared more towards average numbers across his whole career, his personal records of game with his highest # of points/etc -I wonder if he has ever been featured in a magazine/article that included an interview/quotes by him--that might allow you to offer a more multi-dimensional view than just basketball?

Peer Review Round 2
[edit]This article is very clear and concise and presents valuable and relevant information regarding Bobby Frasor. I especially like that you include a pronunciation of his name, but I would suggest using proper IPA to do that. You can access this at http://www.antimoon.com/how/pronunc-soundsipa.htm. Using proper phonetics will add credibility to your article even though “rhymes with razor” is equally effective for pronunciation purposes. I like how you have broken Bobby’s career into segments, high school and each year of college. This strengthens your article as it is consistent with the passage of time and makes it easier to locate specific details. I would suggest looking at maxpreps.com, rivals.com, espn.com, or tarheelblue.com for additional information regarding Bobby’s high school career, recruitment information, and current statistics. Your article could also benefit from a picture and details about Bobby that sports fans are typically interested in (such as his height and weight). I would consider editing your section regarding Frasor’s senior year as it is heavily biased. However, if you can site the information as a quote, it would be acceptable. I also like that you include information regarding the personal life of Frasor. This would be very interesting to someone who would look him up on Wikipedia. --Projectpat11 (talk) 23:52, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
The article on Bobby Frasor provided a lot of information, while still maintaining an effective lay out and readability. Some of the articles strengths were the accuracy of the information, the currency of the information, and how the article was unbiased. The information presented was extremely accurate as it listed his season statistics from each of his four undergraduate years at North Carolina. The information was accurate because of the credibility of the sources used (such as Tarheelblue.com and Espn.com). Another interesting part of the article was that it detailed more than just his college playing career, but when back further to his high school career in Illinois. Additionally, putting in how to pronounce his name was a thoughtful idea as a lot of broadcasters throughout the years have mispronounced his name. The information in the article was very up to date as it notes how just two days ago Frasor ended his career with a victory in the National Championship Game. The article was unbiased because the sources that the author used were noteworthy resources that provide unbiased sporting coverage. The portion about Bobby’s Senior Year is biased and needs to be changed to a more unbiased approach like the other sections of the article. Some areas for improvement are providing a picture of Bobby Frasor so that the audience knows exactly who the article is about. Another weakness of the article is that it does not list his height, weight and other key attributes that sports fans love to know about their favorite player. This can be found at his personal page at Tarheelblue.com or his own page at Espn.com. Overall, it was very obvious that the author did their research and I am looking forward to reading the final version. Bakershields15 (talk) 16:59, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
Suggestion of a photo
[edit]I personally took the photo of him, which is still there on his old profile at BC Levski's website. I used to work for that website and for bgbasket.com (the two sites were run by the same company back then - actually, that "company" was just me and another guy :)) and I cropped and posted the photo on his profile in both. I think I still have the copyright for it and, if you want to use it for this article (maybe in the "Professional career" section or as a temporary main photo), you have my permission to use it under whatever license you want. --Christomir (talk) 15:04, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
