Ultra low carbon concrete core
- ... that to reduce the carbon footprint of its construction, the Olympic Village in Saint-Denis used wood sourced from eco-managed forests and ultra low carbon concrete (pictured)?

- Comment: Article largely translated from the French version. Original English name retained, although the village was not actually in Paris. Currently rated as a stub, but I believe it deserves a better rating. (WP:DYKSTUB)

Olympic Village (Paris) → Olympic Village in Saint-Denis – The Olympic village was not, strictly speaking, in Paris, but in Saint-Denis. Olympic Village in Saint-Denis is the title used on the French wikipedia (fr:Village olympique de Saint-Denis), Netherlands wikipedia (nl:Olympisch dorp van Saint-Denis) and Commons (c:Category:Olympic Village, Saint-Denis) Hawkeye7 (discuss) 20:14, 12 February 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose. The Olympic Village was located not only in Saint-Denis, but also Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine and the Île Saint-Denis. [1][2] 162 etc. (talk) 20:59, 12 February 2025 (UTC)
- Comment Category:Olympic Villages shows that such articles are very inconsistent with their titles, and it would be good to have some sort of convention. 162 etc. (talk) 20:59, 12 February 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose. In the suburbs of Paris for the Paris Olympics. Easily the best and clearest title. And "Olympic Village in Saint-Denis" is not a natural English title in any case. The intuitive English translation from the French would be Saint-Denis Olympic Village. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:31, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- If Paris is the only place in the title, the year should also be there. Peter James (talk) 12:45, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- There was an earlier Olympic village in Paris in 1924. It was located northwest of Paris, near the Stade Olympique de Colombes, and consisted of wooden cabins. It was temporary, and demolished after the games. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 18:10, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, it probably should. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:36, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
