Criteria for inclusion

As the list excludes "Northern Irish and have competed for Great Britain at the Olympics, Northern Ireland being part of the United Kingdom" should it not also exclude people who were Irish, but competed for the Great Britain when it was the team for United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland ie prior to the creation of the Irish Free State? For instance Harold Mahony and Patrick Leahy would fall into this category. Dunarc (talk) 22:58, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
