List of Olympic Games host cities

 * Nominator(s): Nimrodbr (talk) 12:29, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets all aspects of the FL criteria, comprehensive covering all cities that host and will host the Olympic Games. I believe that the list is good and gives complete information about the topic. Nimrodbr (talk) 12:29, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

 * To begin, FLs do not begin with "This is a list of...".
 * "Since then, summer games have usually – but not always – celebrated a four-year period known as an Olympiad." This does not make sense. The games take place every four years but they do are not a "celebration" of that whole time period.
 * There are individualized sources for the 1920 to 1936 games, but no others.
 * I'm not sure why this article is needed when we have Winter_Olympic_Games and Summer_Olympic_Games; this is redundant.
 * Several of the footnotes are unreferenced.
 * Oppose mainly on inadequate sourcing - most of the table and some of the footnotes have no sources -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:49, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
