Some
Wikipedians have formed a
project to better organize information in articles related to rugby union. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you have a passion for rugby union and wish to make Wikipedia the world's foremost reference on rugby union like the rest of our participants then add your name to the
participants list. Then read the section below labelled How to help or inquire on our
talk page. We are in search of graphic artists willing to create rugby union diagrams. Also any images of professional league players would be very helpful.
Scope
The aim of the project is to create a pool of consistent and attractive articles that are easy to find and interesting and understandable to both rugby fanatics and people new to the game. This is achieved by maintaining, creating and updating:
current events with international matches and provincial competitions
recent deaths when notable rugby union players pass on
How to help
Create — If an article has not been written on a
notable rugby topic, then it should be created.
Wikipedia:WikiProject Rugby union/Requests contains articles that have been requested by other editors. If you don't have the time or the knowledge to create an important article a request can be left
here.
Clean up — Many articles, especially when they are first written, can be messy, incomprehensive and even incorrect. You can help by tidying up and correcting such articles with respect to the wikiproject's
guidelines on formatting articles. Rugby union articles tagged with various issues can be found
here.
Expand — Many articles do not contain much information and should be expanded. A good place to find articles needing expansion is the
rugby union stubs category.
Improve — While bringing an article to
feature status is an advanced job it is a lot easier to take an article to
good status. This requires ensuring the article is broad, well referenced, and the prose is satisfactory. Help improving the quality of any rugby article is much appreciated. If you are a photographer and are willing to submit photos to be used on Wikipedia (read about important
copyright licensing first), see this
list for articles needing photos.
Assess — A large number of rugby related articles are unassessed. You can assess
these articles using our
criteria and assign an importance and quality ranking to them.
Categorise — Label articles of interest to the project by putting the {{
WikiProject Rugby union}} template on the talk page. The article should also be placed in the most specific
category possible.
Articles can be found by browsing the
rugby union category or by typing a desired article into the search box to see if it exists and what shape it is in.
