User talk:Mauriziok/All-time Olympic Games medal table

ROC and OAR
It seems that ROC and OAR participation is combined in the main table. This is incorrect, as Russia's NOC (the ROC) was suspended in 2018 when OAR participated. It's a different related (technically independent) appearance and should show separately. Jmj713 (talk) 20:37, 10 February 2022 (UTC)


 * OAR has been added separately in the main-table and the medals for ROC changed accordingly. Miria~01 (talk) 12:59, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Does such a table fit in the article? (Top 30 by gold medals per Summer/Winter Games)
Hello, wants to ask here whether such a table (example below) could be inserted in a new section. I made it myself out of interest to see the performance of the nations in the current Games with their achievements throughout their Olympic history. I think that's interesting, but I totally understand if such comparisons don't fit into the article. - Top 30 medal ranking by gold medals per Games (Winter Games) - Top 30 medal ranking by gold medals per Games (Summer Games) - Top 30 medal ranking by total medals per Games (Winter Games) - Top 30 medal ranking by total medals per Games (Summer Games)

Winter Olympics (1924-2018)

 * Such a “medals per Games” approach has been attempted before and was deleted for being unsuitable. Jeff in CA (talk) 01:19, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for info. -Miria~01 (talk) 12:25, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

corrected medals for GBR - probably resulting from a mistake in 1920 in wiki-article Great_Britain_at_the_Olympics - (Source for correction there: British Olympic Association and IOC)
@Miria~01, we should not do so. If there is an error in Great_Britain_at_the_1920_Summer_Olympics and Great_Britain_at_the_Olympics, then we must first correct it in those articles, and then correct All_time data. Otherwise, we will get inconsistent data.

As for errors in 1920. This is a more complex topic than it seems at first glance. 1) Summary data at https://olympics.com/de/olympic-games/antwerp-1920/medals (and for Games from 1912 to 1948 !) is inconsistent with the detailed data of the competition results on the same page below. This is due to the fact that summary data includes data on Art competitions at the Summer Olympics. Art competition at 1920 gives some extra melals: Belgium 2 gold, 1 silver, 3 bronze; Italy 1 gold, 1 silver; Great Britain 1 silver; Norway 1 silver; France 1 silver. Thus, the data do not match and give a similar "error" not only for Great Britain, but also for other countries. Until now, the IOC has not recognized Art competitions as "olympic event", but may recognize them as such in the future. In any case, we should not have to do partial update concerning Art competitions only for Great Britain and only for 1920. 2) Minus 1 gold medal for Great Britain. It is definitely Sailing at the 1920 Summer Olympics – 18' Dinghy This event was always in question, since only one competitor from GB participated, and he did not finish. The IOC has recognized this event before. Looks like the IOC has quietly struck out it from it from their database. In any case, if there is confirmation of this, we should to fix at the same time Sailing at the 1920 Summer Olympics – 18' Dinghy and Sailing at the 1920 Summer Olympics Nitobus (talk) 23:27, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Agree with you, wont rush it next time. (1)I saw the error with the art competition and fixed it directly. I simply overlooked that and it was a mistake on my part
 * (2) Exactly,with the gold medal it is indeed as you say. Since the IOC and BOA (British Olympic Association) https://www.teamgb.com/competitions/antwerp-1920/VtkZFbWLhpYm3qumMqgc8 | https://www.teamgb.com/athlete/francis-richards/JmKFD1talTpxkY7ovg8rz | https://www.teamgb.com/athlete/t-hedberg/3dMZtauMcWlNURlvkMc15M are matching on this, I assumed it was up to date based on their statistics
 * I also edited the articles, according to the one minus gold medal, Great Britain at the Olympics and Great Britain at the 1920 Summer Olympics. And will also edit these four articles in if there are no objections now Sailing at the 1920 Summer Olympics, Sailing at the 1920 Summer Olympics – 18' Dinghy, Francis Richards (sailor) and Thomas Hedberg -Miria~01 (talk) 18:32, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

 * I've added to the caption to say that it is only accurate to the conclusion of the 2018 games, until someone who knows what they are doing can update it. SSSB (talk) 12:12, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
