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."

Was there an attempt to put every existing rodeo-related article into this category as a non-diffusing category? I'm thinking it would be better to mostly diffuse it into appropriate subcategories where possible. I've done a little of this, but won't go hog wild until other folks can comment.

Montanabw (talk·contribs) As we've now discussed, it was a temporary approach to help in sorting and discussing the entire Rodeo category structure. I didn't make it as clear as I should have. We straightened everything out on my Talk Page now. I'll get it straightened out. Thanks! dawnleelynn(talk)19:40, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think you are doing fine... I'm trying to get my photos properly categorized over in Commons at the moment... cats, cats, cats... MEOW! Montanabw(talk)09:41, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I have gotten all of the articles under this category moved to subcategories that I could the other day. I left articles that didn't fall under the purview of any of the existing sub-categories for us to go through. Some articles did not state what events the subject participated in, just that they were a rodeo participant, for example. Or, they were the only participant of an event, and we didn't want to create a sub-category for just one participant. Or, for instance one subject was the chute boss at Chute 9 at Cheyenne Frontier Days for an extended period of time and was inducted into the Frontier Days Hall of Fame but doesn't really fit into any sub-category. And the list goes on. Additionally, last night I found some other rodeo articles that were not categorized under any rodeo categories but should be. Some fell neatly into existing sub-categories. Some did not, and I added them to this parent category to be looked at. I can make a list to make things easier for us when we are ready to go through them. There are also categories in the parent category Rodeo performers that need sorted. dawnleelynn(talk)15:43, 22 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think it works. The chute boss could be listed as a rodeo professional rather than performer. The nice thing about diffusion is that you can put articles into subcats, but where they just don't fit, sometimes being in the main category is a good way to get other eyes on the problem.

Montanabw (talk·contribs) He's actually both performer and chute boss. He was a qualifier at the NFR in roping but never won a championship. However, he's in three halls of fame. Mostly, though he's known for being the Chute Boss of chute #9 for Cheyenne Frontier Days and in their hall of fame, so I put him in the Rodeo professionals category like you just mentioned. I don't think he's necessarily notable as a roper, but I had added that category earlier. Let me know your thoughts on this individual Dan Taylor (rodeo).
Montanabw (talk·contribs) I agree, let's leave him in both categories. Thanks for getting back to me on this. Good to hear the article is in fine shape too. I take no credit for anything except adding citations for the halls of fame. :) dawnleelynn(talk)22:43, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
