A fact from Charles Matthews (basketball) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 3 October 2016 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
"In his youth basketball took a backseat to the trombone and skateboard, but he began to take basketball seriously the summer before his high school freshman year" - {{xt|In his youth, he played the
trombone and
skateboard, but started taking basketball seriously in the summer before his school freshman year."
"He committed to John Calipari and Kentucky on February 26, 2014 during his junior year." - reword this sentence so it reads as follows: Matthews committed to playing basketball with
John Calipri and the
Kentucky Wildcats on February 26, 2014 during his junior year.
"Matthews earned tournament MVP." - Hence, Matthew earned the tournament's Most Valuable Player (MVP) award.
Done without the Hence, because there is no content to support it. Hence would require documentation of a superlative performance in the preceding sentences.--

CBS Sports in reference 5 should be moved to the publisher field
ESPN needs to be moved to the publisher field in reference 13 and do the same with rivals.com and 247sports.com in the next two citations
The Author is needed in Reference 12.
Have done the third query myself.
