Template talk:WikiProject Olympics

Documentation

This is a WikiProject template belonging to Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports Olympics. It is to be added to an article's talk / discussion page when identified as a suitable Summer or Winter Olympic article for the project's attention. They should do this by adding {{OlympicsWikiProject}} to the start of the article _talk page.

Fair Use Image

Image:Olympic rings.svg is not allowed in the template namespace, per WP Fair Use Policy (#9). Please, can someone replace it with something appropriate that is available for free use? tiZom_(2¢) 13:43, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Anyone got any ideas? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulbrock (talk • contribs) 06:50, April 11, 2008

Thanks for pointing that out! It seems to be fixed. Jared (t)  21:28, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Edit request on 3 July 2012

Could "Todo list" be changed to "To do list"? It is more grammatically proper, and looks better.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 12:45, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

It's not in this template, but comes from Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks/todolist. I've dropped a note at Template talk:WPBannerMeta/hooks#Todo list. If that discussion goes nowhere, we can override for this template by setting |TODO_TITLE=To do list inside the {{WPBannerMeta/hooks/todolist}} of this template. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:02, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Discussion at Template talk:WPBannerMeta/hooks indicated that to-do list was most appropriate. Hope this is okay — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:38, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Edit request on 23 February 2018

Please remove Wikipedia:WikiProject Olympics/to-do from the template, because the to-do list was last updated on 2010 and clearly has no purpose any more. We can manage at the project's talk page. Thanks! --Pelmeen10 (talk) 22:04, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

 Done --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:00, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

May I present to you, the Paralympic version of the WP Olympics logo. It has Paralympics colours with one crescent out symbolizing the Paralympians being disabled atheles. RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk) 20:04, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks? – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:56, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Just change the picture to this picture I've showed you, please. Thanks. RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk) 17:29, 2 February 2019 (UTC)

Can you change the image of the Paralympics task force section to this image (File:ParalympicsWP logo.svg)? Thanks. RainbowSilver2ndBackup (talk) 19:43, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

 Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit template-protected}} template. Please correct me if I've got this wrong. You've uploaded an image, which you've created, and which has no external justification, and you want to impose it on a project in which you are not a participant without any discussion.

I created a new WikiProject called WikiProject Olympics/Deaflympics as a sub project of WikiProject Olympics. So I would like to request to add the following sentence to the template.

This template is within the scope of the Deaflympics task force. For more information, visit the project page, where you can join the project and/or contribute to the discussion Abishe (talk) 02:16, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

Where was consensus demonstrated for (a) the creation of a task force; (b) that it should be sub to WikiProject Olympics? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:01, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

Request disabled. Please demonstrate consensus for this new task force by, at the minimum, posting at WT:OLY — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:30, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

How is the class parameter supposed to work?

I used this template but am unsure what to put in the class parameter as everything I've tried: Future, Stub, A, has resulted in a preview saying that class is an unknown parameter. FiredudeT (talk) 15:56, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

@FiredudeT: The class should be inherited from the banner shell. But you don't say which article this relates to. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:08, 15 June 2026 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for replying, I asked this question after trying unsuccessfully to mark Athletics at the 2028 Summer Olympics as a stub, I would like to ask how I should go about doing this. FiredudeT (talk) 04:00, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

@FiredudeT: Like this. Note that the pipe after the word "stub" is essential. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 08:23, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

thx FiredudeT (talk) 18:23, 17 June 2026 (UTC)
