Women's history - While there's disagreement on the talk page about whether the article should discuss "women's history," as in the study of history from a female perspective, rather than "the history of women," as in what happened to females in history - it still needs expansion.

Saint Louis Chamber Chorus - Currently a stub. I would expand it myself, but I'm personally involved with this organziation and don't want to cause any
WP:COI issues. Briefly, I do believe it is notable according to the "Musicians and ensembles" criteria of
WP:MUSIC because:
Every one of their concerts are reviewed (not just mentioned, but actually given a detailed review) in the
St. Louis Post-Dispatch, a notable and reliable newspaper.
It could be argued that it "has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or of the local scene of a city", although I'll grant that's up for debate. Additionally, it performs original works (i.e., commissions) by very notable composers,
Ned Rorem among them.
In addition to the reviews in the Post-Dispatch, there have also been feature articles about the group, as well as programs featuring their music on
KFUO-FM (which is not a "national" radio station, I guess, but still a prominent local one).
I can probably provide sources to back up the claims of notability and whatnot, but they should be easily locatable on
http://www.stltoday.com (the Post-Dispatch's website), as well as other stuff one might find on Google. Feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you feel like taking up this task and would like my assistance. Thanks in advance!

Basketball position - Basketball position names were originally based on defensive, not offensive, positions: Guards were named, because on defense, they were closest to the basket. They "guarded" the basket. Forwards were named because they were the "forward" defenders. Centers occupied the same positions whether on defense or offense. That configuration holds, now, on offense. On defense, however, the guards may now be in the former forward position, and the forwards in the former guard position. Basketball strategy has evolved, yet positions retain their original names, however meaningless those names now are.

Garrick Club - Apparently, the
Garrick Club in London, England is a highly noted and famous gent's club. I originally nominated the article for deletion because – if you read it with no prior knowledge of the subject – it looks very un-notable... almost like it was written by a businessowner that wanted to put himself in Wikipedia. My AfD request met fierce opposition, though. Total rewrite is requested, or at least some major, major editing. The article lists the club's website as the only source, it is written in British slang, and says nothing of what is supposedly an illustrious history filled with famous members.

(BTW: The Native New Year is in March, corresponding with Spring equinox. It has nothing to do with the heliacal rising of the Pleiades.) -

Psycho Teddy : Song information is currently short, and could use someone with more knowledge on both the character and song to update it. The song has a Music Video, so a section dedicated to this would help improve the article appearance. --

Bagatelles, Opus 119 (Beethoven): There is absolutely no written material on these pieces in this article—only titles or tempo indications for individual pieces in the set.
lawmaking process- couldn't find any information with that title, not at all. 3:34 pm, 19 April
Badaber Uprising - As noted on the
talk page, the article needs more references in English and needs to be rewritten not only from the perspective of the captives, but also from the perspective of their guards. --

Miniaturization - An important subject matter regarding technology such as this one needs to be expanded. The article is currently a weak stub. A history behind miniaturization and the processes which drive miniaturization should be included in the article.

1960s in fashion and maybe the 1970s and 1980s ones as well. All the earlier ones have great info and tons of pictures
Megalodon (film) Much more info is needed under Characters , Production, release, and any other important info that is missing. The Plot could use more info and a re-write ( I wrote all that is there). This si a brand new article so it is lacking in general info. -

Indian British - The Indian British community is the singles largest ethnic minority group in the
UK representing almost 3% of the country's populatiom. Surprisingly an article featuring this community has only just been created by myself. It really needs some help to expand it, and I would appreciate it if it were to become as good as some of the other articles about
Ethnic groups of the United Kingdom.

List of basic Canada topics - feedback needed: what is missing? This list is intended to be a table of contents for Canadian-related topics, and needs good general fundamental coverage. How is it shaping up? Are we going about this right? What else should we do to develop it? All comments are welcome. Please drop by and have a look.

Jeep- The "Off-road abilities" section needs to be expanded, as off-road ability is what the brand is known for. Jeep-specific features are encouraged, even on older models.

Maoricrater explorata - This article is very short in general, I refrain from stubbing the article because I think that there's more info on it than just basic information gleened from a single book. Maybe the gang from WikiProject Gastropods could do some expansion work?

Basketball position - Basketball position names were originally based on defensive, not offensive, positions: Guards were named, because on defense, they were closest to the basket. They "guarded" the basket. Forwards were named because they were the "forward" defenders. Centers occupied the same positions whether on defense or offense. That configuration holds, now, on offense. On defense, however, the guards may now be in the former forward position, and the forwards in the former guard position. Basketball strategy has evolved, yet positions retain their original names, however meaningless those names now are.
Stephano(Shakespeare) - This article has very short Performance History and Origin sections.
Frost line - This article has start to a list of example frost lines but only one example. More are needed from a contrasting variety of world locations. Article could also use a more in-depth explaination of the phenomenon and perhaps more explaination of its implications for building engineering (as article is tagged as part of WikiProject:Civil engineering)

Garrick Club - Apparently, the
Garrick Club in London, England is a highly noted and famous gent's club. I originally nominated the article for deletion because – if you read it with no prior knowledge of the subject – it looks very un-notable... almost like it was written by a businessowner that wanted to put himself in Wikipedia. My AfD request met fierce opposition, though. Total rewrite is requested, or at least some major, major editing. The article lists the club's website as the only source, it is written in British slang, and says nothing of what is supposedly an illustrious history filled with famous members.

List of Barrow built ships - Notable Launchers - The section 'Notables to Launch Vessles' needs expanding as it only lists four people, many many more ships and submarines have been launched in the town, with a lot of these being by famous people. If anyone knows any more people who have launched ships in the town (from royal family to whatever), please feel free to edit -

Doug Supernaw - I just rewrote the article from scratch, and took care of some passages which once had {{fact}} tags, but I've barely begun to scratch the surface here. The article could use some more information on his musical career, as well as on his long string of personal arrests. Although I'm usually pretty good at rewriting country music articles by myself, I think this is a tricky one that could use a few extra sets of hands.

TGV accidents - Inaccurate information in regards to there being no death causing accidents. The accident occurred around 9:15 a.m. local time outside the town of Tossiat, near Bourg-en-Bresse, eastern France Dec. 19th., leaving 1 man dead and 35 injured. Search "tgv" in google news for more details of the incident.
One Laptop per Child - With more news coming in regarding OLPC, the section on participating countries could do with some cleanup, so I added the table to improve readability, but my skills at creating tables are not perfect. Apologies!

Blueshirts#Relation to fascism. This section was heavily OR, so I pretty much gutted it. To be expanded back to where it was, it will need sourcing and will need to steer clear of OR. Although I'm decently versed in Continental fascism, I don't know a whole lot about this period in Irish history, so I'm afraid I can't do this myself. -

Love Me If You Can - I don't know a thing about politics, and I'm afraid of screwing something up here. I get the gist that this song is in response to "Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue" but beyond that, my knowledge is way too limited to really add too much. I ask that someone please give this one a fair and balanced expansion, especially in the "context" section..
