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

Amalgamation & expansion?[edit]

The article deals little with lacrosse though does have some material that the more substantial Lacrosse in Australia doesn't. It shares text with Women's cricket in Australia (& many other 'Women's {sport} in Australia' pages), no doubt derived from a common bibliography & author:

Evening Post (19 December 1922). "Women in Print". Evening Post. Vol. CC, no. 147. New Zealand: National Library of New Zealand. p. 7. Retrieved 28 April 2011. {{cite news}}: Invalid |ref=harv (help)
Howell, Max; Howell, Reet; Brown, David W. (1989). The Sporting Image, A pictorial history of Queenslanders at play. Brisbane: University of Queensland Press. ISBN 0702222062. {{cite book}}: Invalid |ref=harv (help)
Stell, Marion K. (1991). Half the Race, A history of Australian women in sport. North Ryde, Australia: Harper Collins. ISBN 0207169713. {{cite book}}: Invalid |ref=harv (help)

Whether amalgamating or not, undoubtedly there is more useful material in these books etc.
