Requested articles (Sports)
Requested articles (Association football)
Requested articles (Association football women)

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

Sports usage[edit]

Basketball players who are "pros" also play in the Olympics and are called "pro-amateurs". I dont think you have to be a non-professional, the idea being your doing it for some reason other than money. Stbalbach 15:59, 11 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that variant of the term hasn't been accounted for yet. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(^Õل^ō)ˀ Contribs. 12:40, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
