Largest Imperial Chinese harem

According to Imperial Chinese harem system, "The Kangxi Emperor holds the record for having the most consorts with 79" and "No limits were set for these consorts. This later created situations when more than 20,000 women were living in the palace during the reigns of Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling." Which Chinese emperors had a larger harem than Kangxi with an official list of concubines exceeding 79? I don't think Emperor Huan or Ling of Han had official list for all their concubines. 47.39.38.154 (talk) 05:42, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Inner Palace of the Forbidden City

Similar question to the above, how many concubines lived in the Forbidden City at the apex of the Kangxi Emperor largest harem since not all 79 would have been wedded to the emperor at the same time? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.39.38.154 (talk) 05:50, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Is the FIFA Women's World Cup included in the four-year ban?

I'm well-aware the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) banned Russia from all world sports competitions for four years. That includes the 2020 Summer Olympics, the 2022 Winter Olympics and the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Does that also include the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, as well?2604:2000:1281:4B3:A9CA:F0E3:EBF:5092 (talk) 23:13, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Probably as the text says "any World Championships organized or sanctioned by any Signatory", I have not checked but it is unlikely that FIFA are not signed up to the WADA. MilborneOne (talk) 23:35, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Yes it does include it, see [1] Nil Einne (talk) 09:01, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
