WikiProject Women's sports

I added the WikiProject Women's sports template, only on the evidence of women's names as rowers. The presence of women as competitors should be mentioned, along with inline citations.--Dthomsen8 (talk) 02:27, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hoax?

'Skiffing' is in this context an invented word.

Google books

Not to say that the activity of pulling the things through the water doesn't exist, nor that it's not worth an article; it's just not called skiffing.

The Skiff Racing Association (http://www.skiffing.org.uk/) would disagree with your allegation of a hoax, as would its constituent clubs. --David Biddulph (talk) 18:08, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
