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."

The article thus far has good historical content for the title term, Expected Goals, but I would suggest a couple things. First, I would suggest dividing the article into sections, one of which would be the origin of the term as well as its application to soccer and hockey. Another section I would say to create is a calculation section in which formulas for expected goals are derived. Following this, a content box should be created with a more developed lead section at the beginning of the article. As for the current content, I would recommend using shorter quotations and/or summarize what data scientists have stated rather than actually quoting them. I also believe wikipedia frowns upon hyperlinks to outside sources, which you have for the Sarah Rudd paragraph. Then of course, add some images to finish up.

@Alexdasilva47: Hi Alex, I think your points are largely correct. I've also added two equals signs to either side of your title to create a new section, just so you know how to do that next time. Alyo(chat·edits) 15:23, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
