[edit] Scope

[edit] Guidelines

Guidelines for style, format and organization of the articles to be included in this project have yet to be decided. Please see the talk page to join the discussion on this. Once a general consensus is reached there, those guidelines should be moved here.

[edit] Open tasks

  • The primary task now is to decide the direction for this project, and establish a set of guidelines as to WHAT this project will work on and HOW we will format articles, categories, etc. This discussion is happening on the talk page. Once a consensus is reached there, a to-do list can be developed.
  • Diagrams (in .PNG format) are currently being uploaded for formations, plays, and positions. Check out: Formation (American football) for examples. Please make comments on the talk page.
