Same day winners

edit

When more than one athlete won their country's first medal on the same day but in different events, how do we handle this? Do they both count, or do we have to research the actual time the events were held? Bkatcher (talk) 05:01, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Countries Whose First Gold Medal Was Their First Olympic Medal Period?

edit

If a country's first Olympic Gold medal is also that same country's first-ever Olympic medal period (meaning no Silver or Bronze medals beforehand), should that information be noted in this article? Jim856796 (talk) 14:37, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
