  • Canada at the 2004 Summer Olympics - if there are any interested people, could use some help bringing this page up to date with the latest results. It's fallen behind a bit in the last few days. dave 21:36, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Ashes series badly needs information about the history of the contests (ie.) who won it in which year Jam2k 19:38, May 31, 2004 (UTC)
  • Dog agility needs information, mostly links, about the sport for countries other than the USA. Also needs addition of correct (per international agility rules) metric measurements.
  • Dan Gable I started the intial artical, now people need to fill it in and improve it. ZeWrestler 11:21, June 08, 2004 (UTC)
  • Japanese Baseball needs a lot more...it's pretty pathetic as it is right now. There's lots of info on the jp page if someone wants to try translating even? Kurohone 01:45, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Babe Ruth is really well-written, and then cuts off immediately. It reads like a to-do list from his divorce onwards. Meelar 05:36, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Riddick Bowe needs to have the timeline information incorporated into a real article. Also needs updating from his subsequent trial, imprisonment and release (see: [1]). RADICALBENDER 16:22, 17 May 2004 (UTC)
  • Association of Chess Professionals needs help from someone who knows the organization and its dispute with FIDE. Scout3214:26, 22 May 2004
  • Indianapolis 500 is missing a lot of information about the race's history. Not a lick of info about the controversy of the CART-IRL split in the 1990s and the Indy 500's role in that, for example. Nor is there much about the uniqueness of the race: the qualifying (Bump Day, etc.), the drinking of the milk, even the name "Gasoline Alley" is never mentioned.

    • Taken care of. I've done a text, but it's mostly about the history of the Indy 500. More details here. --Pc13 17:01, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • John L. Sullivan (boxer) has a bunch of history problems. Look at Marquess of Queensberry rules for an example. Most sources say the first fight under Marquess of Queensberry rules was in Cincinnati, Ohio 1885 while his page says different. Seems his page is just wrong in many aspects... any boxing historians in the crowd? BTW: his own external link says the dates are wrong. Thanks JoeHenzi 07:19, 20 Aug 2004 (UTC)
