Rhodesia at the 1928 Summer OlympicsSouthern Rhodesia at the 1928 Summer Olympics — Prior to 1965, the colony was formally known as Southern Rhodesia. Following the Unilateral Declaration of Independence, the (unrecognised) Rhodesia only competed in the Paralympics as it was boycotted by the international sporting community.

Comment The problem with this title, though, is that it seems to imply Northern Rhodesia as well as Southern Rhodesia was represented by this delegation, which it wasn't; see Northern Rhodesia at the 1964 Summer Olympics. Prior to 1965, the name "Rhodesia" could refer to two different states. Also, it's worth nothing that Southern Rhodesia as a British colony had international recognition, whereas the independent Rhodesia was completely unrecognised.

Short but good article. Putting on hold for now. — Yellow Dingo (talk) 05:45, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Yellow Dingo: Thanks for reviewing - I hadn't realised about the bolding; I'm going to go back to the other articles I've recently taken to GA and de-bold those too. Miyagawa (talk) 09:38, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I should have also said - I've made those changes you suggested! :) Miyagawa (talk) 09:38, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok Miyagawa looks good. I'm happy to pass this article. Well done! — Yellow Dingo (talk) 09:42, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
