Orphaned references in Presidents of the International Olympic Committee edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Presidents of the International Olympic Committee's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "ReferenceA":

  • From Native Americans in the United States: Ehlers, J., and P.L. Gibbard, 2004a, Quaternary Glaciations: Extent and Chronology 2: Part II North America, Elsevier, Amsterdam. ISBN 0-444-51462-7
  • From Dutch people: Etymologisch Woordenboek van het Nederlands entry "Diets". (Dutch)
  • From Avery Brundage: Churchill, Jr., James E. (1983). The Olympic Story. Grolier Enterprises Inc.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 09:04, 20 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Samaranch / corruption edit

The entire section about Samaranch and corruption is totally unsourced. Given the gravity of the accusations, I think this is unacceptable. 83.163.5.82 (talk) 09:17, 7 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

terms of office edit

If the president is elected for 8 years and can be re-elected once for 4 years, how can Samaranch have been president for over 20 years? -93.232.208.220 (talk) 15:03, 12 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Changes have been made to the Olympic Charter at various points. RicJac (talk) 18:58, 18 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
