Talk:Boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics

Weight classes
@Raymarcbadz I don't understand way of the weight classes. You wrote: Mens Welterweight (71kg) and Middleweight (80kg). But if you compare this with the AIBA weight classes 71kg is Light middleweight and 80kg is Light heavyweight. Do you have an other source? Also "Womens Flyweight (50kg)" the AIBA says that 50 kg is "Light flyweight". TWsk (talk) 11:52, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

Weight categories - urgent
The fight start in a week, and we urgently need to sort out the names of the weight categories and create the corresponding articles. I started yesterday by creating Boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's flyweight and redirected Boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's 51 kg there, and then I did the same for men's 57 kg, but for 63.5 kg we have a problem because the redirect was deleted as a result of the MfD listed in the topic above (and later recreated, apparently by a user who did not know about the MfD). Basically, if I am reading the MfD correctly, we need to make a choice: (i) using names like Boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's flyweight as the basis ones - this was done in all of the previous Olympics, and they are also easy to connect via templates, but apparently these name have zero official standing at the 2024 Olympics, and the choice of the names will be somewhat arbitrary; or (ii) use Boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Men's 51 kg which are precise and official but do not connect well to other Olympics. The pages need to be up this week, so that the decision is urgent. Ymblanter (talk) 08:35, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I would use the weightname instead of the kg for reasons presented. Same has been done in the World Championships (example) aswell if this counts for anything. Kante4 (talk) 11:49, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I think the KG numbers need to be used as there is no where I can find which uses the names of the classes. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 14:49, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
