Will start review soon.--Dom497 (talk) 02:23, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reviewing this as well. To be honest however, I have already come up with a problem. You see, whilst I know that the reason that the athletes that competed for Sierra Leone at the 2004 Summer Olympics got there via wildcard places. However, I have checked and cannot find how the Mauritanians got there. I found source here but I don't know if this is a reliable source nor if it confirms that they got there via wildcards. Oh and I made some fixes similar to your suggestions at the Sierra Leone article by the way. good888 (talk) 12:05, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Review[edit]

Link 2008 Summer Olympics in lead.
- Linked.

You sure there is absolutely nothing that can be added to the "Background" section?
- The content in the section is the same like Sierra Leone at the 2004 Summer Olympics. So no I don't think so.

Everything else looks fine!
- Good to know!

@Good888: Not much to fix! Regarding the link you provided above, I cannot access it (giving me an error). IMO, the publisher is reliable though.--Dom497 (talk) 18:28, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Dom497: I have addressed your concerns. Let me know if you have further suggestions. Oh and by the way, I fixed the link, should be working now. good888 (talk) 19:17, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Good888: Please take another look around the internet to see if you can find some info about how they got to the Olympics (wildcard or not).--Dom497 (talk) 18:51, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Dom497: Good news! I managed to find the qualifying standards for the 2008 Summer Olympics. With this new infomation, I can tell you that they qualified via wildcards. good888 (talk) 20:02, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

See, sometimes it just takes a little bit more searching. Pass!--Dom497 (talk) 15:56, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
