Sports To-do: edit  Here are some tasks you can do: Requests: Average (sports) (crucial article explaining the concept, nomenclature, math; redir to it from Average (sport); use Batting average as starting point for ideas) 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.) Other: 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. Split: Cross-training into Cross-training and Cross-training (business); Hockey puck into Puck (sports) (w/ Puck (sport) redir) and Hockey puck (and update Puck DAB page); Swimming into Swimming (general activity) and Swimming (sport) (eventually create subarticles for varieties) Categorize: Gather all (major/olympic) sports to be part of this project Photographs for pages listed in Wikipedia:Requested pictures/Society#Sport and referenced categories.

[edit] Read if you have heard of Suzy sticks or Durango boot

Someone recently created an article on Suzy sticks, one of those weird games that disc sport people play. It was recently deleted out of process, which is why it is at deletion review. Currently it redirects to Disc golf. I think that we should have an article for spin-off games associated with Ultimate and other disc sports. Obviously Goaltimate, Disc golf and Ultimate should have separate articles, but there should be a Disc games article for well known games as there is for Scrabble variants. There are many others out there like Hot Box, which probably aren't deserving of their own article, but should be included. This has been cross-posted at Talk:Ultimate (sport), Talk:Disc golf, and Talk:Goaltimate. I would like to know if others tink that there should be a combined article.

[edit] Wellesley College did not make goaltimate!

My dad and his friends were the first people to ever make the game!

then after it became popular Wellsley college made up some weird "Offical" Rules and stuff to it and spread it outside of New england.

THEY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CREATION OF THE ACTUAL GAME!

I showed my dad the Artical and he fixed it but then today I come back and its changed again! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jeshi-kun (talk • contribs) 19:46, 13 March 2007 (UTC).

I have put a {{fact}} tag on that section. If you have a reliable source citation for your father having created it, please add it in. Please note that cursing in the middle of an encyclopedia article will not tolerated.—WAvegetarian (talk) 16:39, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
