Why are countries like Antigua and Barbuda, Saint Lucia, and Dominica (which have no medals) in silver? 74.71.129.126 (talk) 21:37, 9 August 2012 (UTC)


 * And why are the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands, both of which have gold-medal winning athletes as part of the Great Britain team, depicted in red?--Jackyd101 (talk) 21:43, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Gibraltar also compete as part of team GB. St Piere et Miquelon as part of France. Jan Mayen as part of Norway. And why are Somaliland, Abkhasia, South Ossetia, Transnistria, Northern Cyprus etc. depicted in the map? Plus I think you need to re-do the caribbean...I don't think every country there has a silver.  Del ♉ sion  23  (talk)  21:51, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Alongside some of the same lines as above, French Guiana, as part of France, should be coloured the same as France, i.e. gold, rather than its current blue/medalless 78.150.42.189 (talk) 01:07, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) East Timor need to be changed. 2) South Sudan is missing. 3) What about Greenland? They are part of Dannish Team?--Spacejam2 (talk) 15:43, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Agree with first two points. Third point see Denmark at the 2010 Winter Olympics. Greenland doesn't have its own NOC so they compete under the Danish flag. Just so happens that no Greenlandic athletes qualified, but if they did they would compete the same way someone from Copenhagen would. 130.88.141.34 (talk) 16:12, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 4) Kosovo is alos missing. It should be in red.--Spacejam2 (talk) 18:46, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I've corrected East Timor, South Sudan's been added, Greenland's been covered by Denmark. Kosovo is a very fuzzy topic internationally. It may be best to leave it seeing as it's not recognised by the UN yet, just to save on all the arguments it may cause.  Del ♉ sion  23  (talk)  01:03, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 5) Only Aruba should be in blue. Rest of Netherlands Antilles should be in red. 6) Area close to Madagascar should be corrected. --Spacejam2 (talk) 06:48, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

South Sudan actually did have participating athletes. 81.192.37.156 (talk) 14:39, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * 7) Puerto Rico need to be in silver, Jaime Espinal won a silver medal for Puerto Rico yesterday in Men's freestyle 84 kg

 * Despite the fact that at least one athlete of South Sudan took part in the Games, South Sudan should be painted in red, because this very young country has no local olympic committee, and therefore any sportsperson from that country was forced to participate under the olympic flag in London 2012. The team of the Independent Olympic Athletes at the 2012 Summer Olympics was constituted entirely by athletes from South Sudan and Curaçao (the latter an island territory in the now dissolved Netherlands Antilles).
