Assess : newly added and existing articles, maybe nominate some good B-class articles for GA; independently assess some as A-class, regardless of GA status.
Cleanup : * Sport governing body (this should-be-major article is in a shameful state) * Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.) * Standardize Category:American college sports infobox templates to use same font size and spacing. * Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.
* Fix project template and/or "to do list" Current version causes tables of content to be hidden unless/until reader chooses "show."
I'm going to take out Valpo, since it's already on the "Indiana Sports" template. I think NIU is okay in this template, as it's title is the "Chicago metro area". --Funandtrvl (talk) 19:06, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Late response to this I know, but as you stated, this template is the Chicago Metro Area. Which if you go to the article Chicago metropolitan area you would see that Jasper County (IN), Lake County (IN), Newton County (IN), and Porter County (IN) are all a part of the Chicago metro area. This would include sports teams in both Lake and Porter County. Valpo being in Porter and Gary being in Lake. St. Joseph County (IN) where Notre Dame is located, is not in the Chicago Metro Area.

The Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune used to cover Notre Dame, I don't know if they still do. I don't think they cover Valpo...Hoops gza (talk) 22:08, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
