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

Technique

Adding technique (spin/glide) like in Shot_put#Top_25_performers would be great. Pernati (talk) 17:11, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Brian Oldfield

Some mention of the unrecognized world record of Brian Oldfield set in 1975 that was not surpassed on the IAAF list until 1987. As regards steroids, he was probably no dirtier than his amateur counterparts, especially from the Eastern Bloc, in those less regulated times. While he can't be placed on this IAAF list, there should be a mention of his two world record marks and where they fit into the main list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jszigeti (talk • contribs) 11:03, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
