Wikipedia

Maybe this has already been discussed, but I am surprised how little footbag information there is on Wikipedia. For example, there is no article on Ryan Mulroney, and the article about Vasek has no photos. Some of you who have been to big tournaments must own a picture of Vasek?

Just a thought, and it might help in making footbag more well known.

Good idea. I'd also definitely encourage anyone with the interest to keep an eye on the wiki articles & remove the stupid things that get added. This last summer I did that for a while, tried to make the general footbag article more concise and readable, removed a lot of stuff about hack variants, awkward language, unnecessary details, redundancy etc., and was amazed at how quickly new stupid things were added. Also, the general footbag article needs more outside sourcing, I gave it a shot but didn't accomplish much.

I also noticed how it took forever for the wikipedia article on Vasek to say he is no longer world champ.

I did contribute to the footbag article though
