Chiles and Voniea

There should be a section under the judging controversy about the Gymnastics floor event on Monday that resulted from Jordan Chiles inquiry and Sabrina Voinea being denied the Bronze after initially winning it. It becoming a big thing or caused quit a bit of controversy and needs to be mentioned somewhere.

Was it a big thing anywhere but in tabloid, populist, US media? HiLo48 (talk) 23:37, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It should also be mentioned that Sabrina Voinea did in fact not touched the ground. As footage shows. The reason for the judge’s refusal to reconsider is because the time has already passed.

“The 17-year-old was given a 0.1 deduction for stepping out of bounds during her routine, resulting in a final score of 13.700. However, replays seemingly showed her heel remaining inbounds.” 213.233.108.45 (talk) 17:27, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seine water quality

After swimming in the Seine during a womens' triathlon, a Swedish triathlete became sick. It can be better to group them as multiple athletes as in the media instead of listing them individua https://apnews.com/article/2024-olympics-paris-seine-water-quality-triathlon-a34cd5733fe659e10447c4f6af1998b4

Biased Against Israel

There are many statements in this article that are not factual regarding Israel. There is no "occupation" and there is no country called "Palestine." 2601:5CC:4600:2370:6CA6:543C:8FF1:1383 (talk) 09:55, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Split discussion

Hi all, There is a proposal to split of material from Imane Khelif, Lin Yu-ting and Concerns and controversies at the 2024 Summer Olympics#Women's boxing_controversy and consolidate it in a new article at 2024 Olympic Boxing Controversy. Interested editors are invited to participate at Talk:Imane Khelif#Proposal to create and split off new article "2024 Olympic Boxing Controversy".

Women's Boxing Controversy re. Angela Carina interview - can this be noted?

I think it would be useful if Angela Carina's interview with an Italian newspaper were included. She apologised to Imane Khelif, and I am annoyed that I have only seen it referenced in the New York Times, which I hope someone can access -- https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5676796/2024/08/02/olympics-women-boxing-angela-carini-apologizes-imane-khelif/?searchResultPosition=2

I feel that her comment about the punch unwittingly added fuel to the unfair comments about Imane, and Angela clearly feels bad about this situation, yet no one seems to be paying attention. I don't feel confident about editing anything on here and would be grateful to anyone who wishes to pick this up. Thanks! Kitbits (talk) 15:25, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the Italian newspaper article if that is what you are looking for. I don't see anything that can be added for it, but I could be misunderstanding your request. --Super Goku V (talk) 20:20, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
