Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennis/Article Guidelines

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

While there are many articles within the scope of this WikiProject, they fall into a relatively small number of classes:

  • Tournament articles
e.g. Australian Open, Indian Wells Masters. These are listed at List of tennis tournaments and in Category:Tennis tournaments.
  • Player articles
e.g. Pete Sampras, Maria Sharapova, Roger Federer, Martina Navratilova. These are collected in Category:Tennis players.
  • Single-year tournament articles
e.g. 2007 Wimbledon Championships or 1966 U.S. National Championships (tennis). Many of these fall under the Grand Slam Project, though there are also non-Slam pages, like 2007 Queen's Club Championships.
  • Draws
e.g. 2007 Queen's Club Championships - Singles, 1966 French Championships - Women's Singles.
  • Davis/Fed Cup articles
e.g. 2007 Davis Cup, 1929 Davis Cup. These are similar to single-year tournament articles, but probably require different standards.
  • Tennis by year
e.g. 2005 in tennis, 1995 in tennis

This list may not be exhaustive, so feel free to add to it. It's well within the scope of this WikiProject to produce guidelines and best practices for each of these article classes.
