What about the non-senior team appearances in this table, e.g. 2008
[edit]@Kareldorado: Belgium ended on 4th place at the 2008 Olympic Games. Is this table forgetting or ignoring that? :) I know it's an U-23 tournament, so I assume it is simply omitted, but it might be a little confusing when you expect this table to be exhaustive. If the 2008 and other appearances are mentioned in lists on other Belgium articles somewhere, perhaps that should be linked to from this table (and perhaps including a number, to indicate how often those teams appeared). Perhaps it should be on this page? Or perhaps it should simply be included in this table after all, as a somewhat odd duck? I would sort of prefer the latter, perhaps with results in all italics and a clear note. Or otherwise, at least some indication about how often those other teams have appeared. –Sygmoral (talk) 22:09, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
- I see that the Football at the 1900 Summer Olympics article mentions that the International Olympic Committee credits 'Belgium' a bronze medal, despite the fact that clubs (not national teams) competed that very first time. So that might be mentioned in the same way as the U-23 and amateur selections, if they are. –Sygmoral (talk) 22:14, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
