Talk:Asian Games

Asian Games are Dominated by PROC?
Doesnt sound very neutral to be honest.
 * If it's a fact, it's a fact. However, per WP:V, it must be a verifiable fact If this truly is a verifiable fact, a supporting source should be cited (see WP:CITE). With a supporting source cited, reporting a verifiable fact is OK. -- Boracay Bill 00:26, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Maybe you can state it in a different, but more objective way. Like since this year/edition of Asian Games, China has consistently topped the medal tables, or China has earned the most medals/gold medals than any other competing countries. Joey80 (talk) 03:00, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Taekwando
I believe Taekwando was at the 1986 games. However, It was not in the 1990 games according to this website. It has been in every Asiad since. http://www.ocasia.org/11AG.asp —Preceding unsigned comment added by Commande1 (talk • contribs) 12:21, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Titles of individual Asians games subpages
The subpages for the Asian games should probably use phrases like 1992 Asian Games instead of 4th Asian Games. The manual of style suggests that the article title and the bold phrase in the intro sentence should match when possible. Also, the bold phrase should not usually be hyperlinked, so don't do 1992 Asian Games, but link to Asian Games later in the sentence or the next sentence. Perhaps all the articles could use an intro-sentence of the format, "The 1992 Asian Games were fourth event in the Asian Games series. They were held in..."

 * An alternative would be to move the article titles to new names that match the current intro sentences. Jason Quinn (talk) 18:23, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Edit request from 76.224.16.116, 27 July 2010
In the table of Games, the 1978 edition should be listed as Bangkok, Thailand, not Bangkok, India.

2022 or 2023
Confusion over the 19th edition will be in 2022 or 2023, as sources had two different year. --Aleen f 1 05:19, 29 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Commonly what I found is 'Asian Games 2023' but still used 'Hangzhou 2022' like in this one from olympics.com:
 * https://olympics.com/en/news/asian-games-2023-ten-athletes-watch-hangzhou-2022-2023
 * So, maybe Asian Games 2022 = Asian Games 2023 colloqiualy. I'm gonna add redirect now for the time being. Thank you for asking/mentioning. EdhyRa (talk) 01:40, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

Medal count manipulation
Some unknown user keeps manipulating the medal count and changes number of gold medals won by Iran!! I have undone his messing many times but seems to be stubborn! please take care of this sort of things Jafar64 (talk) 14:32, 29 August 2018 (UTC)

Wrong information provided by OCA
The reference used for the medal table of Asian games (OCA) is surprisingly providing wrong information regarding Iran's performance at two games: 1958 and 1970. Iran won 7 gold medals at 1958 (3 in wrestling, 3 in weightlifting and 1 in athletics) while in OCA it has been represented as 2!! The same goes to 1970 where Iran won 9 gold medals but is recorded as being 2. One can check accuracy of this information. However I will be contacting OCA regarding this weird problem.

 * @Jafar64 Ill be fixing that. thanks. EhlolyvenE (talk) 05:24, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Most valuable "player"
In 2023, the most valuable player awards are no longer given to just one person. Now there are separate men's and women's awards. Sorry if I am not skilled enough but I am not so sure how to implement an appropriate table format to properly insert two winners in one line. I did my best and filled in the entries. If someone could however reconfigure the table to make it easier for future years, that would be greatly appreciated. 49.181.237.168 (talk) 13:07, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
