Description
I think there are enough article to indicate the   necessity of this project, which would aim to improve the coverage of darts on the en.Wikipedia. Armbrust (talk) 00:54, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

Discussion

 *  Neutral   Support, as a taskforce : The topic is certainly notable enough, it's just a question of whether there are enough interested editors, not articles. If not, it should be set up as a taskforce/workgroup of WikiProject Sports. Lots of dead and dying sporting and gaming projects should also be redone as taskforces of that one or of WikiProject Games (e.g. WikiProject Pinball, which I recently overhauled, but is still too moribund to be an active project). —  SMcCandlish    Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ  Contribs. 03:17, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I volunteer to do a bunch of category cleanup and stuff, like I've done with Category:Cue sports and Category:Pinball. I would probably not be a regular contributor to stuff within the project's scope after that, as my to-do list is already huge. —  SMcCandlish   Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ  Contribs. 03:09, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Agreed, I would support this as a taskforce of WikiProject Sports. -- &oelig; &trade; 08:53, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I have to agree with the previous two comments, a taskforce will be more suitable initially than a full blown WikiProject. - Nick C (t·c) 22:50, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, I echo those sentiments. Cs-wolves  (talk)  05:09, 18 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Further comment: I do note that activity on the topic has been active lately-ish, including a (poorly formatted, but content-okay) glossary of darts article. —  SMcCandlish   Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ  Contribs. 03:07, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I am certain the recent surge of activity is related to the 2 world championships held recently, as they are no doubt the most watched tournaments. I doubt this activity will last.--Atlan (talk) 11:17, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Nuvola apps edu languages.svg Note to incoming readers: If you came here because I left a note on your talk page, that was because this proposed project/taskforce will need committed editors interested in darts-related topics to collaborate in the project/taskforce, and your editing history suggests you may be interested in participating. This is not a vote, especially not on whether or not darts is a notable enough topic for a project (of course it is).  The only question on the table is whether enough editors will focus on the topic to make a project or a taskforce viable. —  SMcCandlish    Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ  Contribs. 05:27, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Support a taskforce. I'm not really opposed to a Wikiproject Darts, but I think the scope is somewhat narrow, and there are too little active editors on darts related topics to justify a project. I do feel many, if not all, darts articles are substandard and it would be a good thing if there was some concerted effort to improve them.--Atlan (talk) 11:15, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Support: It is a very good idea as darts is increasing in popularity and is one of the biggest sports in the UK. There are articles on darts that are not updated and there need to be more added to players and tournaments articles. Mr.Kennedy1 (talk) 22:48, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Support: Darts is greatly increasing in popularity. There are many different variants of darts which could be outlined in more detail as well. Falkybassist (talk) 18:09, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Support: I agree that the quality of articles needs to match the increase in popularity that darts has rightly achieved. --Joesayers (talk) 17:04, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
