Would love a good list, but this format isn't ideal

@Kingsif I saw you reverted my edit, which is fair enough (although I don't appreciate the namecalling). I erroneously assumed someone had vandalized the table after the Imane Khelif situation.

The problem is that the table with the number of athletes isn't clearly linked to the table of individual athletes. So the way to read the table is if the total number in the Boxing category is 9, but only 4 individual athletes are listed below in the key, then those 4 made their debut in 2024, and the other 5 already participated at previous Olympics? If so, is there any way to find out who those are?

The other thing that's not great is that the list of individual athletes does not mention why they are included, i.e. in what LGBT category they fall. For my reverted edit, nothing in the list indicates that it's Bacyadan who's transgender unless I click through every single boxer (and good luck finding out who of the 23 footballers is counted as NB). Anyway, just some suggestions. I think a list like this is useful, but the current format could be improved. — Arcaist ^{(contr—talk)} 18:31, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

No, those are all valid concerns, several of which have previously been discussed. The "main" list became too long that it couldn't load properly, and at a previous FL review, suggestions to dispense with data-heavy images and colours were dismissed based on utility and accessibility. Though only discussed between a few users, the preferred solution was to split the list into several sub-lists, which is what happened. Basically, if we could include the information about identity/year/etc in the main list, we would, but page size limits prevent that. However, because of the need to keep track of what stats relate to what athletes, I did add some lists to the talkpage of the main template, initially a data scrape but which I've been trying to maintain.

Any user is welcome to update the "notes" column with information about the various athletes, too! If you look through the lists, you'll see there's generally more information about the earlier athletes (working through chronologically!). If you are interested in the topic, feel free to make suggestions or just improve the lists. (The NB footballer is Quinn, BTW!) Kingsif (talk) 21:19, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
