Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference?

There are several lines found in the Clay Hill article that are missing referencing entirely. The sources that are used in the article, are mainly popular websites or league web pages containing statistics. It is important that the article is overviewed and that sources are found for all facts in the article. If no sources can be found, the information should be removed or replaced with information that can be verified with reliable resources. The article could also benefit from further research as there are currently only a dozen sources used for the information found in the article. The article is very short, and I think that with more time and appropriate reliable resources, the article could be expanded to give readers a better coverage of Clay Hill's entire biography.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

There are little viewpoints represented in the article. The main problem is that there is not enough content to cover more than one viewpoint. I believe that talking about Clay Hill's childhood could represent and entire new viewpoint easily. It would incorporate aspects of his heritage, where he grew up, his family and education. Another viewpoint I believe would be interesting to research would be going in depth as to how he got involved in lacrosse. The only information provided about his career in lacrosse are the teams he played for an the awards he won. Although a lot of this information may not be accessible through reliable sources, the article would benefit from any other viewpoint added.

Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?

There is a lot of information that could be added to this article. The only information provided are his birthplace, team he played for, birthday, and other personal and physical characteristics. There is little to no information about his background (family, childhood, culture, etc.). The facts provided are up to date, but many of the elaborations or statements about where he is now in lacrosse are very much out of date. The last update on his career/what he is doing now is from 2012. I believe doing little research on this will benefit the article and any added information that I can find will enhance the content of that article. There is not much written so it is a good opportunity to add a lot of information that will intrigue readers. Jadeziebarth (talk) 22:00, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]


Clay Hill was raised in the Six Nations (a First Nations Reserve), in one of the Iroquois Nations. Now, he has a 14 year old son named Shelton Hill who attends Assumption College in Brantford. [1]

The main reserve where Clay Hill is born is found between the cities of Brantford, Caledonia, and Hagersville. The land includes around 18,000 hectares of land. [2] Jadeziebarth (talk) 03:44, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Completing his seventh season with the bandits, Hill has accumulated 61 points over the course of 99 games and played in a cumulative total of 10 playoff games for the Buffalo Bandits prior to retiring from the team. In the summer, Hill travels through the Toronto area to look for job opportunities, particularly steel construction, to support his family when he is in offseason. [3]
