Article title and organization edit
After working on this article in my sandbox for several weeks, on and off, I have finally saved it here in the main article namespace. A couple of things to note:
- I saved it under the article title "Sports in North America" -- plural, American English. I wrote it in American English, so I though the title should be that way. Thus it should be the standard when considering MOS:RETAIN.
- I was not sure exactly how to deal with "Soccer" in the U.S. and Canada vs. "association football" in other North American countries. So I used "association football/soccer" in various places as a compromise. Furthermore, "association football/soccer" is a subsection of a "Football" parent section.
