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

Split

This article should be split in two: one for structure, one for result of the score. In most other languages those are two different words which makes it hard to do interwiki. I guess most of interwiki now is incorrect for this article, because bots use this article to link 2 terms in other languages. Papushin 02:31, 24 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Englishrose 12:13, 22 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 10:11, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

I proposed that Goalpost and Internal goal stanchion be merged here, I don't think we need articles on the separate constituant parts of the goal...... ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:56, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support. A no-brainer really. Peanut4 (talk) 00:56, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support as per above reasons. --Jimbo^[online] 22:31, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support as per User:ChrisTheDude above. - fchd (talk) 11:34, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support I was going to object thinking that goalpost was a noun and goal is a verb, but then I realized that "goal" could be a noun as well. This article could easily fit in with the "structure" section of this article. --Pinkkeith (talk) 15:22, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support surprised this hasn't already been done. Skitzo (talk) 22:21, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can we add more about the NHL goal horn section — Preceding unsigned comment added by Florida Panther77 (talk • contribs) 03:11, 1 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Barca Video

Wow, the video is really bad as you can't see the goal from 200m away and a person's arm in the way. There's gotta be better videos of goals here on wikipedia. If not make it amateur, but from a close view. -Koppapa (talk) 12:22, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Should field goal redirect to the American/Canadian football concept?

Disambig

Why does the disambig read "sport" as if Goal was a sport? Shouldn't it be "sports" indicating it is a term related to that type of activity? --uKER (talk) 21:08, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
