Overall:
Pass/Fail: 


### Lead
"where he was rated a consensus five-star recruit and one of the best players in the 2019 class." - please clarify in this sentence who rated Edwards a five-star recruit
"The most heralded player to commit to Georgia in program history," - please clarify in the lead that he committed to playing college basketball for Georgia


### Early life
"after watching his brothers play." - you can write either play the game. or play the sport. to expand this sentence
"He often played basketball against his brothers at their grandmother's house in the summer." - don't use phrasing such as "in the summer" per MOS:SEASON
Wikilink college basketball


### High school career
You don't need the acroynms of Amateur Athletic Union since they are not mentioned elsewhere
"Edwards was considered a four-star recruit" - considered by whom exactly?
"after the summer of 2016." - another MOS:SEASON violation here
"since Holy Spirit Prep had "small class sizes and support to help that." - can be changed to either Holy Spirit Prepratory or {{xt|his new high school}
"Edwards helped Holy Spirit Prep defeat The Heritage School for the Georgia Independent School Association (GISA) Class AAA state championship." - Prepratory
Wikilink the first mention of the terms points, rebounds and assists to their respective articles
"He played in the McDonald's All-American Game and Jordan Brand Classic in the spring of 2019." - a third violation of MOS:SEASON


### Recruiting
"By consensus, Edwards was rated a five-star recruit, top-five player, and the top shooting guard in the 2019 class." - please state exactly at the start of this sentence who formed the consensus of Edwards' ability
"On February 11, 2019, he committed to play for Georgia," - committed to play college basketball for the reasons of clarification
"Edwards was drawn to Georgia because two of his favorite players, Dwyane Wade and Victor Oladipo, had been coached in college by Georgia head coach Tom Crean." - repetition of the word "Georgia"


### College career
To make it more comfortable to read, the entire first paragraph might be better off divided into two, preferably after the sentence about Edwards' final game of the 2019 Maui Invitiational
Wikilink the first mention of the term steals to Steal (basketball)
Wikilink the sole mention in the prose of the term blocks to Block (basketball)
Wikilink the term overtime to Overtime (sports)


### Personal life
"Edwards' mother, Yvette, and his grandmother, Shirley," - remove "his" from this portion of text
"He has worn the No. 5 basketball jersey" - the No. term should have the abbr template used on it and displayed as follows; {{xt|No.


### References
All of the hyphens that are contained within the references that feature them should be replaced by en dashes (–)

I have now been an editor for 4 days, and have made over 100 edits already, as well as creating a new page. I would love to do the honor of adding All-Star under Anthony Edwards’s page, as I am a fan of the Timberwolves. It won’t let me edit, even though I fit the criteria of being able to edit semi-protected wikipedia articles, so I don’t know. DEverything03 (talk) 04:15, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

Anthony Edwards’ heights need to be updated to 6’5” now. Larrymarket (talk) 16:36, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

NBA lists him as 6'4.[1] – 2.O.Boxing 19:04, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

The entry for his college career includes a line where it says Georgia had an overtime defeat “of” South Carolina, but it should say a defeat “to” South Carolina since South Carolina won the game. 
The source already says this, it’s just written incorrectly. 2601:5CD:8100:AB90:A5C9:3659:DF5C:9B90 (talk) 11:09, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

A Edwards is not related to Rajah Caruth. Please take this info down. 2603:6082:EA40:C:DD82:EAB:1C0E:AFF0 (talk) 05:48, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

His middle name is DeVonte, it's not listed here 2601:154:C300:62D0:3606:C28C:509B:6121 (talk) 20:48, 12 April 2025 (UTC)

The "High School" section is confusing. The first paragraph states: "In early January 2017, Edwards transferred to Holy Spirit Preparatory School in Atlanta and reclassified to the 2020 class. He made the move in an effort to improve his academic performance, since Holy Spirit Preparatory had "small class sizes and support to help that."
Then in the second paragraph of the same section it states that: "In March 2018, Edwards helped Holy Spirit Preparatory defeat The Heritage School for the Georgia Independent School Association (GISA) Class AAA state championship. He reclassified back to the 2019 class in November 2018 after seeing academic improvement." 
If it is determined that the reclassification changes should be included, it should be combined consecutively instead of in different paragraphs with additional information between. Goll8554 (talk) 01:24, 14 May 2025 (UTC)

I don't find the text particularly confusing, but others may feel differently. If you propose the edit you want to be made, specifying the text that should be removed and exactly what should replace it, someone may be willing to make the edit. Day Creature (talk) 06:55, 14 May 2025 (UTC)
