I'll take this one on. Courcelles (talk) 19:12, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing: What is referencing all the tables, the times and scores and ranks?
Need a source for the closing flagbearer.
"In addition, Kuwaiti athletes competed under the Olympic flag and the "Independent Olympic Athletes" title as a result of the suspension of the Kuwait Olympic Committee, their national Olympic Committee." Not mentioned in body, source it
Could use prose summaries of the competition of each sport, a short paragraph on each of the four would do. Courcelles (talk) 19:29, 15 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Metro man 27; Any plans to take this up? Courcelles (talk) 01:28, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sure i will be glad to take this up. I might not be able to do right away but by tomorrow afternoon definitely. Metro man 27 (talk)

Good, good. Take your time. Holds are usually for seven days, but given new prose needs writing, we’re in no hurry. Courcelles (talk) 14:09, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Unless work begins soon, this nomination will fail. Courcelles (talk) 16:29, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Failed due to lack of progress. Please work on adding prose to the sports section and then renominate. Courcelles (talk) 20:51, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey sorry as i am in school i haven't had much time, once i have more time i will work on it again. Metro man 27 (talk)

"...Ibrahim Al-Hussein, a Syrian refugee residing in Athens, Greece..." Athens can be wikilinked.

Done. Courcelles (talk) 20:07, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Raheleh Asemani, an Iranian taekwondo athlete training in Belgium..." Taekwondo can be wikilinked as judoka has been.

Done. Courcelles (talk)

In a similar vein, all of the nations mentioned in the Team selection section (Austria, Hungary, Brazil) can be wikilinked.

Done. Courcelles (talk) 20:07, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"The team was led by Loroupe." The use of "led" here kind of leads me to believe Loroupe competed, I assue he was just a team manager of sorts though.

Clarified, using the exact term the NYT used.

All of the athlete backstories are touched on, besides from the looks of it Kinde and Anis. Any further info on them?

They're touched on un the individual sports sections? Courcelles (talk) 20:07, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"...finished 14th adn last in her heat..." Typo here

Done. Courcelles (talk) 20:07, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good from there, great topic + article.QatarStarsLeague (talk) 19:23, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
