Talk:1954 British Empire and Commonwealth Games medal count

Fixed up the flag of Canada, and provided a direct link to the Official count on the Commonwealth Games Federation Website.

Canada changed its flag in 1965, so all medals won before that time were won under the old Colonial Ensign. I found this information out at the Flag of Canada Page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_flag jkm 14:29, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Also, the current South African flag was only adopted by South Africa following the end of Apartheid, the current South Africa Flag being adopted in 1994, just prior to the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria, Canada - which signalled South Africa's re-attendance at the Commonwealth Games after a 30 year absence. All this can be found out at the Flag of South Africa Page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_south_africa jkm 14:53, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

And fixed up the Flag of Hong Kong as well! jkm 15:01, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Also, fixed up yet another flag, Flag of Northern Rhodesia - which was to become Zambia! jkm 15:10, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

According to this page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_northern_ireland, although Northern Ireland does not now have a recognised Flag, until 1972 it did, and it is still seen as Northern Ireland's de facto unique flag. jkm 15:18, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Finally, fixed up the flag of British Guiana! Think that's all of them! jkm 15:27, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

What is interesting is that even on the official site they have messed up and awarded all the Rhodesian medals to Zimbabwe when in fact some of the athletes - (Pearl) Terry Thornhill-Fisher, Abe Bekker, Edna Theskell and Daniel Van Snyden are in fact from Northern Rhodesia. aka Zambia! Be careful with this fact if you're looking at this page! jkm 09:01, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
