I will review this article.

• Lead
  • I'm not familiar with luge, but is it correct to say: "He finished 34th in the men's singles." instead of something like "He finished 34th in the men's singles event."
    • Right. Courcelles (talk) 01:17, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
• Background
  • control of only Taiwan island the island of Taiwan (no one says "Taiwan island")

  • get rid of the apostrophe here: in the 1970's
    • Done. Courcelles (talk) 01:17, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
  • I don't think this is correct: "The Republic of China boycotted the Olympics in 1976 and 1980 after not being allowed to compete under the name Republic of China." The PRC (mainland China) boycotted the 1976 Olympics over Taiwan being allowed to compete under the name Republic of China. Then, Taiwan boycotted the 1980 Olympics over PRC forcing them to compete under a different name. You can also see this from the fact that Taiwan did compete at the 1976 Olympics: (see Republic of China at the 1976 Winter Olympics).
    • I'm right... sort of, I just meant that happened at the 1976 Summer Olympics, not the earlier Winter ones. Courcelles (talk) 01:17, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
    • Ah, I see. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 03:54, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
  • If I am wrong and that is already correct, you're missing a period before the citation...
    • Added. Courcelles (talk) 01:17, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
  • making Vancouver their eighth appearance at a Winter Olympics since the resolution. (they competed at the Winter Olympics before the resolution too)
    • Modified. Courcelles (talk) 01:17, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Add at the start: For the second consecutive Olympics, the Chinese Taipei delegation consisted of a single athlete, luger Ma Chih-hung.

• Luge
  • His total time was therefore 3 minutes and 22.362 seconds, which ranked dropped Ma into 34th overall out of 38 athletes who completes all four runs. (no need to repeat the total number of athletes; also no need to note out of those who completed all four runs, since they all completed all four runs.)
• Overall
  • All of the links work!
  • No plagiarism detected!

That's all for now. Placing on hold. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 00:56, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
