A colon is mostly used to show that you are going to make a list of things after the comma. So, having that in mind, the correct answer is the first option - I edited the article and found: comma splices, sentence fragments, and misplaced modifiers. 
You listed three things here, therefore you have to put a colon. If you are going to mention only one thing, like in the other examples, a colon is not needed.

This is an excerpt from Jackie Robinson's letter to President Eisenhower. What literary techniques does Robinson employ to creat
barxatty [35]
If this is the excerpt:

My dear Mr. President:

I was sitting in the audience at the Summit Meeting of Negro Leaders yesterday when you said we must have patience. On hearing you say this, I felt like standing up and saying, "Oh no! Not again."

I respectfully remind you sir, that we have been the most patient of all people. When you said we must have self-respect, I wondered how we could have self-respect and remain patient considering the treatment accorded us through the years.
 
17 million Negroes cannot do as you suggest and wait for the hearts of men to change. We want to enjoy now the rights that we feel we are entitled to as Americans. This we cannot do unless we pursue aggressively goals which all other Americans achieved over 150 years ago. <span>
The literary techniques I recognize are the following:
1) amplification - adding more words to a simple sentence to make it more valuable and understandable.
2) hyperbole - exaggeration
3) dramatic visualization
4) Imagery 
5) Pathos - use for emotional appeal.</span>
