Another RfC on capitalization of all our articles

I thought this was a done deal back in this 2022 RFC but obviously not. A handful of editors did another rfc with no sports projects input at all. And it's being challenged because we just noticed it. This could affect almost every single tennis and Olympic article we have, and goodness know how many other sports. Some may have already been moved it you weren't watching the article. And not just the article titles will be affected but all the player bios that link to the articles. Sure the links would be piped to the right place if thousands of articles moved, but if the wording in a bio still said 2023 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles or Swimming at the 2020 Summer Olympics – Men's 200 metre backstroke that would likely need to be changed by hand. There is also talk of removing the ndash completely.

Perhaps this is what sports projects want and perhaps not. Either way I certainly don't want projects ill-informed as the last RfC was handled. Express your thoughts at the following rfc. Fyunck(click) (talk) 20:34, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

2024 Olympics

If anybody's in an article-creating mood, the 2024 Summer Olympics start in 10 days and there are a lot of qualified swimmers missing articles. There's 305 swimmers missing articles, and also in aquatics there is several dozen artistic swimmers, 36 divers and several dozen water polo players missing articles.

Hal Henning

Hal Henning is a new article that needs to be assessed. Could someone from this WikiProject take a look at it? -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:17, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
