Template

This template does not require 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

Unsectioned comment[edit]

I've noticed on {{Template:2010 Big Ten football standings}}, for example, there is an inconsistent amount of space on either side of the dashes in the win-loss entries. At first glance I thot the wins column wasn't adding surrounding spaces and the losses column was, but when I looked at the HTML code, I saw they are both using the same table method. Maybe the wins column text needs to be aligned to the right, and the losses column text aligned to the left? These templates are way out of my league, so I'm not even sure if the issue is actually in this template, or {{Template:Standings Table Entry/record}}, or elsewhere, let alone how to fix it. Maybe someone could straighten these out? 71.197.244.119 (talk) 02:11, 31 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Change template call {{winpct}} to {{winning percentage}} to avoid the redirect. That template is transcluded in around 30,000 articles through being called in this template, so that unnecessary redirect has to be followed every time one of those articles is viewed.
