Additional paragraphs regarding the participation of Afghan athletes

Should mention the controversy here about whether athletes from Afghanistan will participate in the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics, which has been under Taliban control since August 2021? -- Sangjinhwa (talk) 07:56, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you have sources, feel free to add. Kingsif (talk) 12:17, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

#JeChieDansLaSeineLe23Juin

Should we add a section for the following protest?

Links: website, fracetvinfo link, tonronto Sun link, metro UK link - Rooiratel (talk) 08:23, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Potentially. I will say that the Metro source would need to be replaced per METRO, but the France Télévisions source seems to be fine. ~~I think the Toronto Sun might be separate from THESUN and could also be fine.~~ --Super Goku V (talk) 09:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Right, the Toronto Sun is also a tabloid. (Should have double-checked.) In any case, I did find the SBS News article they referenced, so that should work. --Super Goku V (talk) 09:54, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Saudi Athletes' Village

Some explanation of the bit about the proposed location of the Saudi athletes' village would be helpful. My understanding is that in all past Olympics the athletes have been housed in a single location provided by the host country. To my knowledge, there are not separate villages for different countries (though the athletes from each country are housed together), nor do the visiting teams select sites for and construct their own accommodations.The idea that Saudi Arabia would build its own village conflicts with this.Bill (talk) 21:59, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
