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

Bonds' home run chase[edit]

I've taken the liberty of beginning to report individual home runs by Barry Bonds, now that he's within five of Hank Aaron. -- Mwalcoff 03:11, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tour de France[edit]

This event has not been updated in a number of days. Does anyone have the results available to post? --After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 12:29, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Portal:Sports and games[edit]

The undermaintained portal Portal:Sports and games has a news section that could benefit from being auto-populated with the last day or two worth of news from this page. What would everyone think about putting some tags in to accomodate this? I think the best way (other than splitting it up into per-day pages) would be to put noinclude tags around everything other than the last 1-2 days. There would be a tremendous upside to this - it would make it very easy to transclude current news from this page anywhere - you could have the latest sports news delivered to your user page every day by transcluding it, as an example. --B 23:05, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really sure how useful this would be. Much of what is posted here are results/scores rather than "news items". --After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 02:42, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
