Discussion

Last two sentences of the 1992 section need citations.
Djibouti City should be linked in the NOC section.
Ref 8 needs the language the website is in.

@CycloneIsaac: Issues addressed, let me know if you want additional work performed. Kees08 (talk) 05:28, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Additional notes

^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.

Merger proposal

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was to merge the pages. All of the content that is currently in the List of flag bearers for Djibouti at the Olympics is already in Djibouti at the Olympics. Kees08 (talk) 06:43, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that List of flag bearers for Djibouti at the Olympics be merged with Djibouti at the Olympics. The former article has an extremely limited amount of content that can easily be included (and already is) into the latter article. I do not forsee this causing any issues, but wanted to gain a consensus. As for the flag bears nav box, the redirect would bring it to the Djibouti at the Olympics article. Let me know your thoughts, thanks! Kees08 (talk) 02:49, 14 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge You've done a great job here and seems logical to merge and keep all the info on one page. Iantheimp (talk) 09:33, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

GA concerns

I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria because it has not been updated with information from the 2020 and 2024 Olympics. Is anyone willing to address this concern, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 00:27, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This article is tagged with an "update needed" banner, with information about the 2020 and 2024 Olympics missing. Z1720 (talk) 13:36, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can probably fix this up by the end of next week. Sgubaldo (talk) 22:57, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Z1720, I've written the necessary updates. I've also tweaked most of the existing sections, adding some more detail and reducing the NOC section. Sgubaldo (talk) 20:03, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I added a cn tag. The lead should be expanded to cover all major aspects of the article. Z1720 (talk) 20:16, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Z1720, I've expanded the lead as much as I could. For the cn tag, there's no one source that just lists everything in one place, so I've split up the statement in two parts and placed each part in paragraphs whose existing citations cover them. Sgubaldo (talk) 20:55, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. My concerns have been addressed. No further concerns. Z1720 (talk) 20:57, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – I think my changes have fixed everything. Sgubaldo (talk) 12:54, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
