In fencing, is Alen Hazdic as of now not competing, because he was suspended temporarily by SafeSport from engaging in Olympic activity due to allegations against him by the U.S. Center for SafeSport?[1] If so, he should be taken off this list. --2603:7000:2143:8500:D01E:643B:DBD2:8300 (talk) 01:01, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
Sorting according to the first medal winner, and so on. Jr Tahun (talk) 12:47, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
US Skateboarding athlete Alana Smith is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns. They are not a woman. They are competing on the women's team. I edited the "competitors" chart to reflect this by placing a note. Twice this edit got reverted. I am concerned that a chart without a note erases their gender. Alana Smith has been misgendered multiple times this Olympics as well as further context.[1][2] Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Gender identity we are supposed to respect a person's pronouns. We should have a note to indicate that they are nonbinary and are competing on the women's team. Thank you, -TenorTwelve (talk) 05:32, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

I saw that a couple people deleted the overview section, which I'm fine with. I'm just wondering why people think I wrote the section when I didn't? Rscala1 (talk) 02:21, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
The prose in this article places undue emphasis on "bad" results, whilst failing to mention "good" results. Additionally, it contains a number of opinions that are unjusitfed and unsourced. It describes several silver and bronze medals as "only" which is an, WP:UNSOURCED, opinionated word to watch (basiclly having the opposite effect of MOS:PUFFERY). It is not the job of Wikipedia to determine which results are disappointing.

Other pages, like China at the 2020 Summer Olympics, do not have medal tallies presented in each paragraph, even if they dominated the sport (weightlifting, table tennis). Not only are these tallies unsourced, but they constitute undue weight. 5.182.38.223 (talk) 21:34, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
