Hi, and welcome to the Rugby union WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to rugby union.

A few features that you might find helpful:

• Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
• The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPRU Announcements}} there.
• Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
• The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, peer review, and a collaboration of the fortnight.
• We have a Fiji rugby task force that focus on Fiji related rugby union articles.
• Our requests page has extensive lists of requested articles.
• We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorisation, and other issues that you may find useful.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Shudde ^talk 23:17, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

South African rugby

Hey. Are you a South African contributor? Hopefully so because WP Rugby union doesn't have enough South African contributors and a lot of SA related rugby articles are neglected. I just created 2007 Super 14 Final today - have a look and see what can be improved. A lot of the players don't even have articles. If you looking to work on South Africa national rugby union team then do! Improving the national rugby team articles before the World Cup is a priority. We have managed to get All Blacks and France national rugby union team to Featured Article quality but would love to see some more at that level. Any queries or comments feel free to contact me on my talk page. - Shudde ^talk 06:17, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Rugby union terms

Hey, sorry about thinking you were South African! Although I have to say an Indian contributor to RU stuff is even rarer. The main rugby union article is quite long, and the laws of the game are very complicated. There is an article Playing rugby union which is mean't to remove lots of the details of playing the game from the Rugby union page, but I think creating a page List of Rugby union terms is a really good idea. The list could be the same format as List of cricket terms (which is a featured list). Maybe create a sandbox and start a list, and we can add to it. Once it gets of decent size we can create the article. Do you know how to create a sandbox in your user space? - Shudde ^talk 23:59, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

What you may want to do is add a note to the WikiProject Rugby union talk page telling everyone about your sandbox and what you are doing. Hopefully some people will help with it. You have done well though, and it looks good so far. You may need to reformat it a bit but this can be done without too much trouble. - Shudde ^talk 00:49, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I'll have a look at the cricket list (and others work) and then steal the code. This is pretty much how wikipedia works.GordyB 16:05, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I had a look at your sandbox article and it is pretty complete. I made a couple of changes (in bold) mainly adding alternate names of positions. You may need to remove field goal as its no longer part of the game (nor has it been for many years). Good work mate. Soundabuser 12:29, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Rugby union national team Improvement Drive

For the 2007 Rugby World Cup WikiProject Rugby union is launching an Improvement Drive for national rugby union teams; specifically those participating in the Rugby World Cup.

We need your help! Here is what you can do:

• Adopt a national rugby union team article and collaborate with other members to improve it.
• Find, create and upload free images that will help improve these articles.
• Copy-edit, reference, and expand articles when and where you can.
• Promote the project and encourage others to join.

The World Cup is fast approaching and these articles are going to get a lot more hits during the tournament. It would be great if we could have them at a high standard!

For more information see the discussion on the WikiProject Rugby union talk page here.
