To-do list:

Here are some tasks awaiting attention:

Article requests :
Requested articles (Sports)
Requested articles (Association football)
Requested articles (Association football women)
Requested articles (Motor sports)
Requested articles (Estonian sportspeople)
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
Other :
- Translate the page of sport in each country from corresponding article in other language Wikipedia to English Wikipedia which was marked in red.
- Categorize: Gather all (major/olympic) sports to be part of this project
- RfCs: answer requests for comment

Unconstructive edits

User:Sportsfan 1234 did some unconstructive edits and wrote "THIS template is used to navigate ONLY between Handball at xxxx Olympics, all other information is on separate templates and is duplicated".

User:Sportsfan 1234 please ask the members of the WikiProject Handball before you do such an big edit. This template was ok for many years and everybody was able to navigate easy through the handball articles of the Olympic games.

@Kante4 and LeFnake: should this template be minimalistic like Sportsfan 1234 want or should it be reverted to the last version, with all necessary links?

I prefer all links to be in one template.🤾‍♂️ Malo95 (talk) 17:39, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree as this template just covers the handball sport at the olympics and there should be all relevant links. And per BRD there should habe been a discussion after the first revert. So hopefully there will be one. Kante4 (talk) 10:47, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Sportsfan 1234: Any comments? Kante4 (talk) 09:03, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. This template is for "Handball at the Olympics" Not Handball's men's tournament, rosters etc. We don't link each individual event in other individual sports and we shouldn't for team sports. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:01, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Sportsfan 1234: Seeing that other templates (Basketball, Field hockey, Football, Water polo) have those same links you removed here (and were also reverted at the basketball template and made the same edits at the volleyball template) i see no reason to not have those link showing. If you disagree you should start a discussion at the Olympics project, but until then the status quo should be used. Kante4 (talk) 14:43, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree with Kante4 here. Pelmeen10 (talk) 15:50, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late answer, but I also agree User:Sportsfan 1234 did some unconstructive edits. "The more the better" — Preceding unsigned comment added by LeFnake (talk • contribs)
