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

Dirt Series

Dirt Series is not run by Rocky, but was only sponsored by them. They are no longer the sponsor, Trek is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.68.36.170 (talk) 03:21, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reassessment to start class

I reassessed this article to start class (from stub) after an edit by myself. I realize this may be a conflict of interest, but I feel the subject is 'starting' to be adequately covered. This is a relatively insignificant subject, so there is not much information readily available. Feel free to reassess if anyone disagrees with class=start.

This reassesment is fine, i think. Not a conflict of interest to judge your own work, that's basically what editing is. —fudoreaper (talk) 00:10, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rename to 'Rocky Mountain Bicycles'?

The current title of the article is "Rocky Mountain (company)" The text in the parentheses is required to differentiate between the bike company and Rocky mountain, an article about the Rocky mountains of North America.

Seems that instead of this awkward tag on the Rocky Mountain name, we should just use the fuller name of the company, Rocky Mountain Bicycles. The company's own contact page says "Rocky Mountain Bicycles" and the company was incorporated as Rocky Mountain Bicycles Ltd. in 1981. —Fudoreaper, 20 October 2009

Sounds good to me, go for it! --Keithonearth (talk) 05:13, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, i'm gonna do it! WHeee!!! —fudoreaper (talk) 04:24, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, move completed. Welcome to Rocky Mountain Bicycles. It's a much better article title, i feel. —fudoreaper (talk) 04:43, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good job. --Keithonearth (talk) 04:58, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
