User:Liface/Skateboarding

Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Skateboarding. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

For more information on WikiProjects, please see WikiProjects and WikiProject best practices.

Scope
Skateboarding articles have an adequate start on Wikipedia, but they need major help. Many articles are being vandalized, and not enough people have them on their watchlist to fight it. There are currently only 80 skateboarders with articles, there should be around 200 considering the current popularity of the sport. Many skateboard companies lack articles. 70% of skateboarding articles are currently stubs. There needs to be an article on vert skateboarding. All articles need to be placed under the skateboarding category.
