ShortcutA project has been formed to better organize information in articles related to running. This page and its subpages contain suggestions for enhancing such articles; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts on these topics. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there. For more information on WikiProjects, please see Misplaced Pages:WikiProjects and Misplaced Pages:WikiProject best practices.

The Olympic Games, IAAF World Championships in Athletics, European Championships and Commonwealth Games each evidence different styles.

Assessment criteria
Assessment of running-related articles:
- Importance
- Top = Core article or primary definition; central running topic/person or necessary for basic coverage of the topic (for example: sprint, long distance running)
- High = Core daughter article or significant related topic/person, hard to write the article comprehensively and NPOV without this article, enjoys widespread notability and consensus (e.g., Barefoot running, Dipsea Race)
- Mid = Daughter article or broad/basic definition, important for comprehensive coverage of the top issues, but not an integral definition (e.g., Jon Anderson (runner), Track Town, USA)
- Low = Non-core, the topic could be covered without this article (e.g., Walt Stack, Midnight Sun Run)
- Quality
- Has attained FA
- A-class or could attain with a bit of work
- GA-class or could attain GA with a bit of work
- B-equivalent, mostly cited and accurate, but has some issues, could be citations, OR, POV, or incomprehensive. Not too much work needed to bring to decent standard, but may still be a stub or start.
- Some cleanup/work needed, below B-class, has some issues like lack of citations, OR, POV, incomprehensive. Sustained attention needed to bring to standard.
- More work needed, multiple issues such as uncited, essay, POV, dubious accuracy or questionable notability. Lots of attention needed.
