Qualification edit

Thanks for the editing help, Inter. I do think the article is less accurate now though, because the rules about what happens if an NOC exceeds its allocation in qualification events have been removed. In effect, the article now says top 8 individuals win qualification places, but that's true, it's the top eight, excluding those from NOCS finishing 1-8 in the team event. That's not the same thing.

The article says "It is anticipated that 12 NOCs shall qualify to participate in each team event, thus qualifying 3 athletes each (24 in total)". But 12x3=36, not 24. Should this be either '12 NOCs, 3 athletes, 36 in total' or '8 NOCs, 3 athletes, 24 in total'? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.27.63.221 (talk) 16:06, 13 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Use of the term "Wenlock" edit

This article is using "Wenlock" as a common noun for the graphic shown. As in "logo". I believe that "Wenlock" is a proper noun referring to only the Olympic mascot. I will change this to logo if there are no comments to the contrary. Bobsd (talk) 17:22, 28 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Actually the graphic shown is one created for use in articles by members of WikiProject Olympics, it has no specific relation to these Games at all and is just a placeholder until a suitable image is available. I've removed the caption altogether - Basement12 (T.C) 17:33, 28 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
