2004 Summer Olympics medal count per capita

Have you considered ranking on medals won based upon the number of participiants from each NOC? That would be an interesting stat also... --HJKeats (talk) 14:01, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Based on your idea, I intended to add also such calculation, but somebody delited the page 2004 Summer Olympics medal count per capita.Krefts (talk) 23:58, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki is simply an encyclopedia and we don't permit original research. i.e, we simply reports on what is. Not what should/could/may be better. Leave that to the primary research outlets of the world. --Madchester (talk) 00:03, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The editors of scientific yournals would not agree, that such calculation is an original research. Such calculations were published many times. Can I publish such a list, if I give a citation (international journal)? Krefts (talk) 00:17, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki is not a scientific journal. Nor is Wiki a platform to advance a personal position or analysis. Please read through WP:NOR for more details. --Madchester (talk) 00:49, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly, therefore something that does not fit into scientific journal due to lack of originality, should not be rejected in wikipedia for the reason, that it is an original analysis.Krefts (talk) 06:20, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A scientific journal does primary research. We don't permit primary research on Wikipedia per WP:NOT and WP:NOR. If you're still unsure about what constitutes primary/original research, you can leave a question on each of those policy talk pages. --Madchester (talk) 14:31, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm un-clear what constitutes original analysis!! By taking know facts and presenting them in a fashion to show factual data as does the table All-time Olympic Games medal table, is that considered original research. There are no external references in regards to table contents, only implied based upon other sources. --HJKeats (talk) 00:47, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
