Hi Courcelles! I am going to review this article as well. I will complete a quick c/e of the article first. Feel free to revert any of the changes, as I will only make what I feel are non-controversial improvements. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:06, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Copyedit
Prose & MOS
  • Per MOS:DUPLINK, I would remove at least the last instance of all the athlete's names. Since the article is so short, I would probably just link in the lead and the table.
  • Recommend using the {{Abbr}} template in the first table for "n/a"
  • Be consistent with capitalization of n/a (or N/A)
  • Was there a flag bearer?
  • "Nester Geniwala'a was 19 years of age at the time, and making her only Olympic appearance" - this sentence has a weird structure. Later you say "Tony Analau was 27 years old at the time of the Atlanta Olympics, and was making his Olympic debut" - I prefer that version, stating that they made their debut, because conceivably they could qualify for another Olympics (even though this is unlikely based on their age).
  • Explain the strike through in the 80 in the second table using a key. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:18, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

References
  • Are there any other references you can include? The article relies almost completely on one source (Sports Reference).
  • You archived all of the citations, even though all the pages are live? Is there a reason why?
  • All other references, formatting, and inline locations look good. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 18:18, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
