Louafi Bouguera Olympic Bridge

  • ... that the Louafi Bouguera Olympic Bridge was named after the first French African athlete to win an Olympic gold medal? Source: "En donnant à ce pont le nom de Louafi Bouguera, la Seine-Saint-Denis rend hommage à un athlète injustement tombé dans l’oubli. Né en Algérie en 1898, l’athlète a marqué l’histoire en remportant le marathon des Jeux Olympiques d’Amsterdam en 1928, devenant ainsi le premier Franco-Algérien médaillé d’or olympique. [1]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The first hook had a problem in that it was at odds with the source. The source says "first Franco-Algerian Olympic gold medalist." The hook said "first French African athlete to win an Olympic gold medal." Now, the new hook works, and the dyk is good to go --once the language is fixed in the text as well, where it still says "French African". (As that also has been fixed, it's good to go).

Created another hook. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 23:33, 16 February 2025 (UTC)

Corrected the article. The mistake arose from my (mis)translation of the French Wikipedia article: Il porte le nom de Louafi Bouguera, premier athlète africain indigène à conquérir une médaille olympique et a fortiori à être champion olympique en remportant le marathon des Jeux d'été à Amsterdam Hawkeye7 (discuss) 03:43, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
