There is a request, submitted by (unknown) , for an audio version of this article to be created. For further information, see WikiProject Spoken Wikipedia. The rationale behind the request is: "Previously requested ". |
Switch names!!
It is THIS article that should be named "Modern Olympic Games", and the one currently called Ancient that should simply be named "Olympic Games"! Since the former is a REVIVAL, or rather an imitation, of the latter, which was the ORIGINAL EVENT, and therefore should carry the actual name. Everything else would be contrary to encyclopedic practise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.156.126.230 (talk) 00:28, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Nazi Germany flag points to the Germany page?
Im wondering why the Nazi Germany Flag points to the "Germany" site but the word "Germany" after the flag points to the Nazi Germany page. Is there any reason why? Tock46 (talk) 01:42, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Simply a grammatical fix. Under section 8.3 "Controversies: Use of performance enhancing drugs" The second sentence should read "In 1904, Thomas Hicks, a gold medalist for the marathon..."
Currently, a hyphen is used instead of a comma after Hicks' name. 50.168.49.129 (talk) 04:16, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

WIKIPEDIA IS IN DANGER
Spain is banned in International Olimpic Comitee flag listing in ca.wikipedia.org WHY?
Please HELP. Minority secessionism in north of Catalonia is subsidizing indoctrinating edits in ca.wikipedia.org
Barcelona'92 was hosted in Spain, of course and Olympic Comitee says it too, but Spanish flag in international listings is forbidden in "ultranationalist Wikipedia" (ca.wikipedia.org). This awful method of indoctrination is the beggining of a war in Catalonia because crazy local governor wants a "Catalan Army" in wikipedia to fight against non-violent catalan, peaceful people. The rest of catalan speaking territories citizens are unable to edit cawiki due to violent ultranationalism.
Secessionist minority cabal of admins created a bot to avoid people to put the official name of Valencian Community (Comunitat Valenciana in Catalan language) now, you can read the fantasy name "valencian country" or "valencian state".
In football, basquet, sports, the spanish players in international games cannot be spanish. It's prohibited in ca.wikipedia.org
Castilla Kingdom and Aragon Kingdom joined into one country called SPAIN. But nazionalism in wikipedia is changing history. Now, they invent nonsenses (ugly spaniards are bad and oppressors, Catalonia are fair and beautiful) and continue calling Castilla and Catalonia two separate states after Kingdom of Spain. And ¡they invented "Catalan states" of "Catalan Countries" and made official! (it's like if I say "Marlboro State" is a new State of USA) they make sections in official international listings with regional things. Please there is a massive bias in that wikipedia in catalan language (Not "wikipedia of little region of secessionist region of North Catalonia: Valencian, Balearic, and anybody who speaks catalan too are banned"). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.158.205.136 (talk) 06:48, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
- If you have comments to make about the Catalan Wikipedia, you need to address the comments there. We here, at the English Wikipedia, do not control what is done on another language's Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by David Biddulph (talk • contribs) 12:38, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
- Since this isn't about improving this article, we should delete it. Niteshift36 (talk) 23:04, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
