Welcome to the Triathlon WikiProject!

Goals

  • Improve Wikipedia's coverage of triathlon, duathlon and aquathlon
  • Create guidelines for articles about triathlon.

Scope

  • The project covers all articles about the sport of triathlon, including duathlon and aquathlon.
  • Athletes:
  • Those who satisfy notability per WP:NTRIATHLON.
  • Non eltie/professional athletes who have suitable status to satisfy WP:BIO. This may include coaches, commentators, ...
  • Competitions:
  • Elite and professional level representative competition, namely ITU and WTC World Championships, Olympics, Pan-Ams, Commonwealths, Asian Games etc.
  • Other non-representative competition which is notable for: size, location, legendary status, ...

Open tasks

=General=

  • Tag articles with project banner: Template:WikiProject Triathlon
  • This has largely been done now by a bot - see listings of articles within this project's scope at :Category:Triathlon articles by quality. Continue to add the banner to newly created and any stray articles you come across.
  • Assessment - A very quick assessment has been performed on all articles using the WP:Version 1.0 criteria. See below for assessment instructions.
  • Triathlon - aim to bring this article up to WP:GA - see (soon to be started) discussion on its talk page.
  • Paratriathlon - expand the article - It lacks a section on notable events and championships.
  • I've asked others in the ITU Paratriathlon Athletes Facebook group (includes most people competing on the international paratriathlon circuit) what they think should be included in the article. Sportygeek (talk) 14:37, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

=Athletes=

  • Standardise/tidy biography infobox
  • Add infobox to athlete articles
  • Concentrate on world champions as they are most notable. Handy list here: User:NSH001/triathletes
  • Still plenty of redlinkers here. Strongly recommended that new articles should be written under the WP:DYK process, as this
  • # raises the profile of triathlon articles (they get 6 hours linked from the Main Page)
  • # ensures a minimum quality (they have to be at least Start-class to pass DYK - see Emma Carney for a recent example)
  • Triathlete biography articles should satisfy WP:BIOG and MOS:BIO. See WP:BTIP for general tips, and Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Sports and games#Triathlon for specific advice.
  • Other-language Wikipedias can provide useful pointers to source of info, and provide a valuable check.

=ITU Championships=

  • Plan content and layout for article series
  • Build templates as necessary to allow standard content and layouts to be applied
  • Populate pages - start with most recent, using already completed pages as a guideline

{{ITU World Championships}}

=WTC Championships=

Any member of WikiProject Triathlon may assess Sports-related articles by following the guidelines below. If you aren't sure about an article, ask about it on the assessment page.

The {{tl|WikiProject Triathlon}} template has a class= and an importance= parameter which provide an article assessment and importance rating for each article:

; {{WikiProject Triathlon|class=???|importance=???}}

The following values may be used for the class parameter. Please note that you must type them exactly as below as they are case-sensitive:

If a rating is not assigned, the article will be filed in :Category:Unassessed Triathlon articles. The class should be assigned according to the grading scheme. A list of Unassessed and In dispute articles can be discussed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Triathlon/Assessment.

The importance parameter is not currently in use for this WikiProject, and can be left blank in all banners.

{{Hidden|titlestyle = background-color: #ccccff;|Importance parameter|

The following values may be used for the importance parameter. Please note that you must type them exactly as below as they are case-sensitive:

The parameter is not used if an article's class is set to NA, and may be omitted in those cases.}}
