Stub

This article has been rated as Stub-class 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

Linkspam

There is a blog that deals with Sports Agent issues and personalities at "http://www.sportsagentblog.com" [The previous unsigned message was posted by 24.136.47.51 (talk · contribs)/24.136.43.71 (talk · contribs), 21:22, 25 July 2006 (UTC)][reply]

Um, no. Wikipedia is not a web directory; try Yahoo. In particular, links to blogs and webboards that do not provide encyclopedically useful material for Wikipedia readers are not permitted, per our policies and guidelines on advertising, external links and conflict of interest. If you continue to add linkspam, you will be blocked from editing. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 17:09, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do not delete the information on this page. Whoever made the revision before the current page deleted important facts. [The previous unsigned message was posted by 24.136.43.71 (talk · contribs)/24.136.47.51 (talk · contribs), 20:58, 17 April 2007 (UTC)][reply]

Please sign your posts (add "~~~~" - four tildes - after your post). And stop adding linkspam. Ordering other editors to not do this or not do that will get you not just ignored but ridiculed. Please familiarize yourself with how Wikipedia works, both technically and socially, before making any more major edits or attempting to throw your weight around (hint: you don't have any here). — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 17:09, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Famous agents

I think the Famous agents list needs cleaning up but, since I'm new, I wanted to run it by others first. I can't find any web references to Barry Thomas while John Print, Darren Heitner, and Marlon Fleischman & Phil Korklin look to be, at best, very minor agents. Shall I just go in and delete? Should this page be protected from linkspam? Tom.green2 09:42, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
