This WikiProject aims to describe a template for new articles about Mixed martial artists, unify currently existing articles and improve the overall quality of mixed martial arts related pages.

The goal of this project is to provide a unified structure, a toolkit of templates and a central discussion area for the creation and improvement of articles relating to Mixed Martial Arts; the ultimate goal being for Wikipedia to contain an authoritative set of articles of Good or Featured quality relating to all significant aspects of MMA and to contain an article for all fighters that are notable.

See MMA notability

Notability of fighters is one of the biggest issues for the project. WP:MMANOT is a summary of what many of the experienced users for the project believe to be notable organisations and the definition of a notable fighter. Should a fighter not fulfil this criteria, it is unlikely that they warrant an article on Wikipedia.

Discussion is always welcome at the MMA notability page, linked above (or WT:MMANOT for the discussion page), as we attempt to establish a wider consensus for who or what is notable.

Banner for use on article talk pages

Using {{subst:to do}} underneath that on talk pages will create an editable to do list as we have at the top of this page, which you can leave notes for yourself or other editors in.
