User:Durin/Yachtracing-stub

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I plan on proposing a new stub category to cover the sport of sailing. Currently, such articles end up mainly in {{sport-stub}}. Should I find enough articles that would fit this new stub category, I will recommend the creation {{yachtracing-stub}}. A companion stub would be {{yachtracingbio-stub}}, should there be enough articles to break that out. With this in mind, this page was created to keep track of articles that I run across that would qualify for this stub category.

User:Gwicke might be a person willing to assist with this effort.

[edit] Articles not currently marked with a stub marker

These are articles without a stub marker, but probably should have one. Rationalizations, where appropriate, are listed as well.

1. Alinghi no race record, etc.
2. Ernesto Bertarelli clearly a stub
3. Golden Gate Yacht Club - limited history, no races, etc.
4. NZL 32 no race record or information about epic battle with OneAustralia.
5. Royal Brighton Yacht Club - no history, races, etc. Clear stub.
6. Russell Coutts clearly a stub; one of the most famous racing sailors in history.
7. Yacht club - missing at least information about standards of burgee exchanges, visitations, etc.
8. KZ1 - Probably could do with some improvement

[edit] Articles not yet created which might become stubs

This list does not contribute much to a notional proposal to create this stub. The idea here is to keep track of articles which at the time of survey are not in existence but may be created and thus need to be checked if they are stubs.

1. AmericaOne
2. Chris Dickson
3. Cruising Yacht Club of Australia
4. ISAF Youth World Championship
5. Kookaburra III
6. Liberty (yacht)
7. Mooloolaba Yacht Club
8. Ocean Racing Club of Victoria
9. Peter Holmberg
10. Royal Ocean Racing Club
11. Royal Western Yacht Club
12. Royal Yacht Club of Tasmania
13. St. Francis Yacht Club
14. Team New Zealand
