There is very little information in Wikidata about Skateparks. Please join me in adding entries for each Skatepark that includes location coordinates - once that information is entered, we can create lists of Skateparks, and also make maps of Skateparks. Please see the entry for the Burnside Skatepark as an example. A query of Skateparks shows all the current Skateparks labeled in Wikidata.

The Skate video page is being repeatedly vandalised (twice now reverted) by a bot named JJMC89 bot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JJMC89_bot

The bot has twice now removed images (one is 14 years old) from the page. Could someone please ban the bot from the entire wikiproject for skateboarding. It's clearly damaging content. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.181.78.62 (talk) 14:14, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-09-30T14:14:00.000Z","author":"109.181.78.62","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-109.181.78.62-2019-09-30T14:14:00.000Z-Bot_vandalism_of_the_Skate_video_page","replies":[]}}-->

Hi all

I just started the article Isamu Yamamoto, if you could take a look and improve it that would be great.

Thanks

Hey all, I hope everyone is safe and healthy. My name is HickoryOughtShirt?4 and I'm a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. I was wondering if there was any interest in starting a WikiProject Sports channel on Discord? There's quite a few of us who are interested in sports, and I think it would be a good idea to help the WikiProject recruit more members. You guys can join us through here.HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 00:12, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-04-13T00:12:00.000Z","author":"HickoryOughtShirt?4","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-HickoryOughtShirt?4-2020-04-13T00:12:00.000Z-Discord","replies":[]}}-->

Hi I’m a new page reviewer and I’m looking at a couple of articles about skateboarders, Lance Dawes and Mark Whiteley, that have been sitting unreviewed for months. I’d appreciate view of the members of this project on the reliability of the sources. If you could leave a note on the article talk pages that would be very helpful. Thanks.

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.
