This article has not yet received a rating on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.

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

Bandy World Championships → Bandy World Championships for men – The men's competition is at Bandy World Championships and should probably be moved to Bandy World Championships for men while Bandy World Championships should be a disambiguation page also pointing to the women's.

Comment. What do reliable sources say are the most common names for the two competitions? For example, there is the National Basketball Association and the Women's National Basketball Association, not the "National Basketball Association for men" and the "National Basketball Association for women". And there is the FIFA World Cup and the FIFA Women's World Cup, not the "FIFA World Cup for men" and the "FIFA World Cup for women" Zzyzx11 (talk) 04:06, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Answer: They are not organisations, they are not "called" anything special. They both are the Bandy World Championship(s). Bandy boy (talk) 19:46, 26 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
