Happy editing! I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 20:31, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! My updates were pulled down at first w/o me understanding why but I now understand - there is a link to a separate page for the section! I'll try to pay more attention in the future. 18:33, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

There's a separate article for the list of medalists. It is linked above. We shouldn't be redundant. Howard the Duck (talk) 18:00, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Also, what's there is a far superior version of what you've been adding. Howard the Duck (talk) 18:02, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It now makes sense. I've been focused on how it differs from other countries At the Olympics pages and was trying to update it using the template for the others. Now I know why it was reverted for a second time. Thanks! Apdeleon (talk) 18:30, 9 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously, you didn't notice the main article? Howard the Duck (talk) 13:49, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I was editing the List of Medalists section of the Philippines_at_the_Olympics page, not the List of Olympic medalists for the Philippines. In that section, I know now that there is a link to the List of Olympic medalists for the Philippines. As I have mentioned yesterday, I noticed how different the Philippine page was from the other Southeast Asian countries' 'Country X at the Olympics' pages so I thought I'd align the Philippine page - w/o realizing at first that there is an expanded clickable page. I am not sure if it somehow appeared on the List of Olympic medalists for the Philippines page which prompted your review and reversal of the change. In short, I was not editing it as the main article.
