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

Defunct/Moved Teams?

Should we think about including defunct teams? Like the Philadelphia Stars. Or teams that moved like the Athletics? Bjewiki 22:39, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- No, I think it should be left to only current teams. Also, Harrisburg, Hershey, York, etc., are not close to Philadelphia. Therefore, teams from those locations should be left off. Darthflyer 17:03, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In/Around Philadelphia

Isn't Harrisburg, Allentown, Wilmington, etc stretching the in/around Philadelphia thing a little bit? If that's the area that is defined, than you can make the argument that other division I colleges should be included too (Rutgers, Lehigh, Lafayette, Delaware, etc).

Pictures?

I don't know when the couple of stadium pictures got added, but I think they make the template look unecessarily cluttered. I didn't want to remove them without seeing what everyone else thought? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bjewiki (talk • contribs) 09:46, 2 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Looks like someone agreed w/ me, and removed them. Bjewiki 18:08, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other cities have it, why not ours? Darthflyer 02:48, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you post some links to other cities that have them? So we can see how they look there? Bjewiki 09:23, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The template is HUGE already. Why clutter it up with decoration?ccwaters 10:49, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template:NewYorksports Example of template with pictures. If you do decide to keep the pictures, try to make them the same size height wise. Michael Greiner 22:11, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
