But heaven forfend that anyone should say that what is effectively a Wiki run by the IOC is not an independent, reliable source.... FOARP (talk) 08:56, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion about WikiProject banner templates

For WikiProjects that participate in rating articles, the banners for talk pages usually say something like:

There is a proposal to change the default wording on the banners to say "priority" instead of "importance". This could affect the template for your group. Please join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council#Proposal to update wording on WikiProject banners.

If someone has time, this article is rather an embarrassment because Samson was a prominent thoracic and cardiac surgeon with a medical society named after him. He was chief of surgery at the hospital at Samuel Merritt University and also was on the faculty at Stanford University School of Medicine. In 1946 he founded the thoracic and cardiac surgery training program at Highland Hospital. One of the problems with all of these Olympics sports stubs is that editors often don't look to see if the person was more notable in something else besides being an Olympic athlete. There's a decent obituary on him in Dr. Paul C. Samson, Oakland Tribune, February 12, 1982, page 4 viewable in newspapers.com. I suggest a re-naming of the title because he certainly was better known as a doctor than an athlete. I'm going to leave similar messages at a few other WikiProjects.

Women in Red year-long focus on women in sport

Throughout the whole of 2026, Women in red is focusing on women in sport. This provides opportunities for creating biographies of notable women in a wide variety of sports, not forgetting those competing in the Winter Olympics and Paralypics early in the year. If you are not already a member of Women in Red, feel free to join up under "New registrations" here.--Ipigott (talk) 10:00, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Czech Republic or Czechia

If the IOC is now using "Czechia". Shouldn't we be doing so too, post-2022 Olympics articles? GoodDay (talk) 00:20, 6 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Czech Republic men's national ice hockey team#Requested move 6 January 2026 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. The outcome of the discussion may affect other names of the nations at the Olympics. FromCzech (talk) 09:32, 9 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
