Dubious
"ss this was a breakthrough for women in sport that would one day lead to full recognition and programming for women's athletics on the international stage." -- Women's athletics had been at the 1928 Olympics and the 1932 Olympics. In 1932, GB, Canada and S Africa sent women; Canada had done so in 1928. jnestorius(talk) 14:35, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Well the text was a WP:COPYVIO of the CGF site, so I've expunged it. jnestorius(talk) 14:56, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

15, 16, or 17 teams?
The lede says 17 but the list gives 16. Also, at Talk:Ireland at the British Empire Games I question the nature of the Irish Free State's presence. jnestorius(talk) 14:35, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I've added Trinidad to the list (dunno how to get the flag template to work). Still dubious of Irish Free State, mind; the CGF doesn't list it. jnestorius(talk) 14:56, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
