11:06 edit: I've reinstated this edit because I tend to agree that baseball, softball, karate, skateboarding, sport climbing, and surfing are no longer "future sports"... yes the qualification campaigns have begun, which seems pretty current to me! If not, when do we define a point in the future when they become "current"? The day of the 2020 Winter Olympics opening ceremony?

20:19 edit: It certainly does seem counter-intuitive to class snowboarding as a "skiing" discipline but it is in fact one of the six Olympic disciplines governed by the International Ski Federation – please see FIS article, which says: "responsible for the Olympic disciplines of Alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, ski jumping, Nordic combined, freestyle skiing and snowboarding." For the purposes of this template, the six disciplines are grouped together under the sport of Skiing, for consistency with the main winter olympics articles (Sports section). Further clarification can be found here.

I am fine with that, it was only being reverted because of who did it per WP:RBI since they were a block evading editor. -DJSasso (talk) 13:18, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Are those 5 "new" sports there to stay in the Olympic program? If not, they should be somehow seperate. See {{Summer Olympic sports}}. --Pelmeen10 (talk) 14:27, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
