If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks.SportsWikipedia:WikiProject SportsTemplate:WikiProject Sportssports articles

To-do list:

Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

Article requests :
Requested articles (Sports)
Requested articles (Association football)
Requested articles (Association football women)
Requested articles (Motor sports)
Requested articles (Estonian sportspeople)
Assess : newly added and existing articles, maybe nominate some good B-class articles for GA; independently assess some as A-class, regardless of GA status.
Cleanup :
* Sport governing body (this should-be-major article is in a shameful state)
* Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.)
* Standardize Category:American college sports infobox templates to use same font size and spacing.
* Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.
* Fix project template and/or "to do list" Current version causes tables of content to be hidden unless/until reader chooses "show."
Expand : Professional sports (crucial article explaining the salaried undertaking of sports)
* Sport industry (currently a sub-stub)
Photo : for pages listed in Category:Wikipedia requested images of sports and games and sub-categories.
Stubs : work on articles in Category:Sports stubs
Update : List of world sports championships
Other :
- Translate the page of sport in each country from corresponding article in other language Wikipedia to English Wikipedia which was marked in red.
- Categorize: Gather all (major/olympic) sports to be part of this project
- RfCs: answer requests for comment

Too many templates[edit]

The article is in the hidden Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded because it contains too many templates. A fix is needed. One option would be to split the article but another more radical approach might be better. That would involve removing all the flag templates, or possibly replacing them in batches, using subst. I suspect using subst would make the wikitext too large and ugly for maintenance. Omitting stuff might be the only viable solution (apart from splitting).

@Johnuniq: I have split off the by-month section to 2018 in sports by month. I intend to do the same with 2019 in sports and a future page 2019 in sports by month. See multiple discussions over the last year about this "page too big" problem in Talk:2019 in sports. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 01:22, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Johnuniq (talk) 05:45, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend putting selected events in "Calendar by month" section[edit]

I recommend putting only World Cup, Olypics, or similar "world championship" international competitions in this section, as examples. The link to the new main article is where the complete list should be. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 01:24, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
