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."
The first sentence in "Disadvantages" is: "Because the force of the fall has to impact upon some part of the body, wrist guards increase the chance of facial or head injuries because the arms cannot support the upper body on impact." This is not referenced, and I deem it wrong. The logic is missing. When the hands have a "shield", why are they not able to support the body when falling? Why should the face/body should be at greater risk of injury then? This should be corrected or deleted. I did not check the rest of the paragraph. Pittigrilli (talk) 00:51, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
