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

Think the competitions section needs padding out with more than some links, a history section would be sensible also. SheffGruff 11:45, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Official name[edit]

The English translation of "Fédération Internationale de Hockey sur Gazon" is not "International Hockey Federation" but "International Field Hockey Federation". If that is the official French name, that should presumably be reflected in this article. I'm not suggesting a page move, but the organization's name should be corrected. --Saforrest (talk) 19:57, 12 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The FIH uses that name to refer themselves (check website) so I think it should not be change.--M&m89 (talk) 13:34, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Formerly called ...[edit]
