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

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedy deleted as pure vandalism or a blatant hoax, because it is designed to show all sportspeople who are Druze, along the lines of Category:Jewish sportspeople. I have created this category on behalf of the Druze Wikipedia community. --Eranrabl (talk) 15:11, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This category misleads the reader because Druze are not a distinct ethnicity. They are an integral part of the Arab people.--Uishaki (talk) 15:38, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

While it might be true, they are a distinct social and religious group, separate enough from either Muslim or Christian Arabs to justify the category. I agree that Druze should be a sub-category of "Arab Sportspeople", or that this category might become "Israeli Druze Sportspeople", although it misses the meaning I've been trying to give the category, of every Druze sportperson, from whatever nationality. --Eranrabl (talk) 20:08, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
