I've talked to at three different women's sport organisations and encouraged them to upload pictures to commons of their athletes. It would be useful for the roller derby article to have some videos or pictures clearly demonstrating certain skill sets for the rules section. That would also be useful in articles like [[rules of netball]] and [[Artistic gymnastics]]. [[Category:Women's sports in Australia]] has a whole slew of articles that could use people taking pictures. (And given some of the sports here, little clothing would be completely relevant.) This is probably an issue of content type needing illustrating. -- twitter: purplepopple blog: ozziesport.com
