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

Basic info missing

There is some mention of the difference in extra inning games from MLB and other leagues, in what other ways are the ground rules different? Does the KBO have a DH, or do the pitchers hit? special stats? Thanks 219.240.32.180 (talk) 11:58, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge this text somewhere?

mergeable text follows

South Korea has also produced 11 players who are currently playing for Major League Baseball. They are:

South Korea also participated in the inaugural 2006 World Baseball Classic. The Korea national baseball team had a record of 6-1, but did not advance to the finals. They lost in the semifinals to the future champions, the Japan national baseball team. First baseman Seung-Yeop Lee led the tournament with 5 home runs and 10 runs batted in.

end mergeable text

I didn't see an easy way of doing it in the context of the article. Maybe a new section International connections or something. This text was misplaced in a deleted category. --Syrthiss 22:10, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I merged it in just now, but slightly different from your suggestion. Cpt. Morgan 08:50, 22 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And what about Spring Training ?

Another missing piece of basic information - - Spring Training.

How many know that it's done here in the U.S. ? ! ?

And that it's similar to MLB Spring Training in that, as far as I know, the teams train in Arizona and Florida. 2600:8800:785:8500:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 17:55, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
