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

Merger proposal

I propose merging 2000 World Open Water Swimming Championships – Men's 5 km, 2000 World Open Water Swimming Championships – Men's 10 km, and 2000 World Open Water Swimming Championships – Men's 25 km into 2000 World Open Water Swimming Championships – Men's. While each of the articles on its own has notability problems for events, combining them into one article strengthens the WP:NEVENT claim a bit as well as allowing for much easier maintenance with being in only one article instead of three. snood1205 14:26, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@TartarTorte: I don't see why they can't all be redirected to 2000 FINA World Open Water Swimming Championships. There's no need to create another article here. I'm WP:BOLDly redirecting them. Elli (talk | contribs) 21:08, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, works just as well for me! Thanks, Elli! TartarTorte 21:11, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
