I am building a new template to accommodate changing Template:WikiProject Tennis from a custom template to a WPBannerMeta standard template. (In Progress this week)
Feel free to comment:
User:Mjquin_id/Sandbox/Template:WikiProject_Tennis
This will require a number of categories to be renamed slightly to accommodate the standard.
Like moving From: Category:Category-Class tennis pages
To: Category:Category-Class Tennis articles

So the "real" page is "WikiProject Tennis" and the most common shortcut that I see (among other WP's) is "WP{Name}" which would be "WPTennis". I am would like to change THIS article to reflect the "Proper" name and only one shortcut "WPTennis"...and am prepared to change all other references to "WPTennis" using AWB. Any complaints? -- Mjquin_id ( talk) 20:29, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

New version sitting in the Template's sandbox, docs, testcases, et al. are in my sandbox. This stems from my wanting to go on a mass Stub Crusade: Category:Stub-Class tennis articles; hence trying to sub-categorize stubs to the point where they are workable. Grand Slams, top 10 biographies, majors, etc. Mjquinn_id ( talk) 15:22, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

18:38, 19 July 2021 (UTC)We need a formal discussion about the implementation of work groups in the general tennis project template. (see the template edit request) I have a version in my sandbox. The general impetus of this is to reduce the 25K of Tennis stubs, for which I have also created User:Mjquinn id/sandbox/stubs by decade; because I could not find anything in the pile of stubs and the lack of a search mechanism for the category. It is basically changing the WikiProject template to implement the Work Groups that already exist. I appreciate any and all comments, herein. Mjquinn_id ( talk) 20:54, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
(Davis|Fed|Billie Jean King) Cup
is in the title, then add the "Davis Cup-Fed Cup task force" subproject's category. —

I've had time to understand this proposal a bit more, and have found the following discussions:
There seems to be two separate processes related to stubs:
class=
parameter, this adds the talk pages to a category, e.g.
Category:Stub-Class tennis articles. This is under the purview of
WikiProject Tennis.Looking at a comparable project,
WikiProject Football, there is
Category:Stub-Class football articles (process 2), which has various subcategories for different subprojects/taskforces of the project, e.g.
Category:Stub-Class football in Ireland articles for
Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Ireland task force. Adding the WikiProject Football banner to a talk page with irish=y
adds the page to the Irish football subcat, as well as the main Football project cat. You want to do the equivalent for the
Grand Slam project,
Tournament task force, and
Davis Cup-Fed Cup Project subprojects of the tennis project. I don't think that's a bad idea, but as I said the template should automatically select the subproject (if applicable) based on the talk page's name if possible, to drastically reduce the workload. I'll help with implementing that.
The other thing is that you created
Category:Grand Slam competition stubs, a subsubcategory of
Category:Tennis stubs, which should be managed by the stub sorting project. I agree with the creation of that category to further divide
Category:Tennis competition stubs, but it needs to be done through the stub project, following their guidelines and processes.

Ok, Real life intervened for a bit, but I would like to gather more opinions on this... please? I think it would "break up" a rather HUGE backlog of stubs...into pieces that could be more workable? Mjquinn_id ( talk) 21:15, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
=pagename
, for instance, and have a list of names for all the different types of tennis-related pages and use, for example, a parameter called <pagename>
after =
sign and Bob's your uncle.
