List of Olympic Games host cities[edit]

Nominator(s): Nimrodbr (talk) 12:29, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets all aspects of the FL criteria, comprehensive covering all cities that host and will host the Olympic Games. I believe that the list is good and gives complete information about the topic. Nimrodbr (talk) 12:29, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose You have not been a significant contributor to this article; while drive-by nominations are allowed, your having a connection to the article lets us know it has already been reviewed and you will improve it further.

To begin, FLs do not begin with "This is a list of...".
"Since then, summer games have usually – but not always – celebrated a four-year period known as an Olympiad." This does not make sense. The games take place every four years but they do are not a "celebration" of that whole time period.
There are individualized sources for the 1920 to 1936 games, but no others.
I'm not sure why this article is needed when we have Winter_Olympic_Games#List_of_Winter_Olympic_Games and Summer_Olympic_Games#List_of_Summer_Olympic_Games; this is redundant.
Several of the footnotes are unreferenced.

Please go through the article carefully and check for full citations, consistency, and copywriting/MOS compliance before we go further, but thanks for taking the initiative on this! Reywas92^Talk 00:28, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose mainly on inadequate sourcing - most of the table and some of the footnotes have no sources -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:49, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Lots of uncited content, lead needs significant work. Nominator has not significantly edited the article. Since nomination about a month ago, no significant work has been undertaken. Cowlibob (talk) 12:55, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Several serious issues with the article. Dey subrata (talk) 15:39, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – per reasons above. – zmbro _(talk) 04:07, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
