Background

• How many countries/athletes at the games?
  • Added. Courcelles (talk) 16:52, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
• Looks like Bolt was, until this year, the only athlete to compete for Kenya at the winter games. Worth adding (and the fact that they have no medals).
  • Added.Courcelles (talk) 17:00, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

Cross-country Skiing

• Perhaps a brief summary of Bolt's 1998 claim to fame, and his time then; looks like he sped up a lot subsequently.
  • He did, but the races aren't comparable, the 15 km being a new distance for him in Turin. Courcelles (talk) 17:00, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
• Any media hype surrounding Bolt's Olympic return?
  • Not really, this was his third Games after all. Courcelles (talk) 17:11, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
• Who won gold/silver/bronze? Times?
  • Added, honestly don't think it is that relevant when "our" guy finished this far back in the rankings. Courcelles (talk) 17:00, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
• 1998 Winter Olympics links to Nagano, Nagano.
  • Fixed. Courcelles (talk) 16:52, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

Courcelles, looks like a photograph can be added of Philip Boit. There's also a lot of information about him online, and I have to think some articles can be found describing his 2006 effort. --Usernameunique (talk) 06:37, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

• Photo added. Courcelles (talk) 17:00, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
  • Usernameunique, added some stuff, see what you think. Courcelles (talk) 17:23, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
    • Made some small edits Courcelles, and now passing. --Usernameunique (talk) 19:29, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
