Arson attack on the rail network

I don't see a mention in the article on the same-day arson attack on the high-speed rail network which perhaps was intended to disrupt the opening ceremony. Is there a Wikipedia article on the incident? 152.130.15.108 (talk) 20:05, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cauldron a reference to the first hot air balloon ride

According to the website of Paris 2024 the cauldron which is shaped like a hot air balloon is a "nod to the first hydrogen-powered flight of a balloon, which took place in the Tuileries in 1783" http://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/live-updates/828a28d7-f37f-4332-a973-1803bb2e7706 Dwscomet (talk) 22:42, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subtitle of Proceedings in French

Currently subtitles are used French words like Synchronicité, Liberté and so on. However it is ridiculous to use French words in this English Wikipedia. If it is held in Iran, do we use همزمانی, آزادی? Canadian Olympic Committee uses enchanté, synchronicity, liberty, equality, fraternity, sisterhood, sportsmanship, festivity, darkness, solemnity, solidarity, and eternity.^[1]―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 10:12, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
