Welcome to the Women's Football / Soccer Task Force, a joint initiative of WikiProject Women's sport and WikiProject Football. This task force focuses on articles related to women's football / soccer including:

• Women's players, clubs, managers, leagues and competitions, seasons and associated articles
• Women's football / soccer national teams
• International women's football / soccer competitions including tournaments and matches

Our main goals are to:

• ensure women's football / soccer-related articles are represented on Wikipedia by creating and editing related articles
• establish and organise standards for women's football / soccer-related articles resulting in well-written articles
• improve the visibility of articles related to women's football / soccer by nominating them for DYK placement on the Wikipedia homepage, or improving them to good or featured status

To join, please add your name to the Members section. There are many ways for you to contribute - small and large. If you have a question, post it on the project's talk page.

Notability criteria

Articles must currently meet WP:GNG or WP:SPORTCRIT guidelines.

• For college athletes and coaches, see WP:NCOLLATH
• For younger athletes, see WP:YOUNGATH.

Per WP: SPORTCRIT, "sports figures are likely to meet Wikipedia's basic standards of inclusion if they have achieved success in a major international competition at the highest level." This includes national team championships. Adequate referencing is required. WP:GNG is your torchlight.

Preventing and dealing with proposed article deletions

The key to ensuring that an article you create is not deleted is providing adequate referencing to meet WP:GNG.

• Make sure the article's talk page is tagged with relevant project tags such as {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}} and {{WP Women}} so that other editors can further improve the article or contribute to an Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion, if needed.
• If you have any questions or run into any issues, feel free to post them on the this project's talk page.

Leagues

For a list of active and former top-division leagues, see LEAGUES.

• Articles about players or managers in these leagues must meet WP:GNG.
• Articles about seasons must meet WP:GNG or WP:NSEASONS.
• Articles about referees, officials, staff or other notable figures must meet WP:GNG.

See the notability criteria section above for more information.
