Possible bias? edit

I'm not sure why but after reading the development section I felt like the entire section is almost entirely Sapporo bashing while containing a glowing compliments towards Vancouver to the point that I think a stakeholders might be writing it. Could the wording on that section be a little less bias? 2405:9800:B840:5532:3888:B324:5330:BAE7 (talk) 14:30, 14 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Agreed. Most of the "developments" section has nothing to do with developments. I'm removing most of the offending material. ThisIsPaulina (talk) 05:18, 9 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

More citations needed edit

The write-up for the Research Company poll (https://researchco.ca/2021/10/25/vancouver-olympics/) is wrong in the following ways:

1) The level of support reported in October 2021 was 43%, not “less than 60%”. Less than 60% could be anywhere from 59% to 0%. 2) There is no citation about the supposed criticism of the poll. 3) It is impossible to criticize a public opinion survey for “lack of sampling” because all public opinion surveys rely on a sample of respondents. This is not only factually incorrect, but impossible. 4) It is difficult to know what the author suggests by “conducted entirely online without monitoring.” Monitoring by whom, exactly? What is being suggested here? And, once again, where is this criticism coming from? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.79.152.142 (talk) 22:26, 20 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Dropped US-centric sentence about NBCuniversal edit

I dropped a sentence about the NBC Universal contract that seemed unnecessary and US-centric. Sanpitch (talk) 03:55, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Theyre getting 2034. MaskedSinger (talk) 12:45, 3 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Absolutely no where close to confirmed. Probable but not confirmed unless you have a link to something? 2030 and possibly 2034 to be announced this summer. Chris1834 Talk 15:25, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

It doesn't say they are getting 2034, which is what your comment says. It says they submitted an application to host. The article does state that it is for 2034 but the current bidding process is not actually for a specific year...it is a continual dialogue If we are going to delete based on assumption of the article, everyone except France should be deleted as France have also been named preferred hosts.
