Talk:Sailing at the 1908 Summer Olympics

Upgrading

Folks,

I started to upgrade the articles on Sailing at the Sailing at the .... Summer Olympics

Please allow me some slack because I can not change everyting at the same time. It involves this article, the sections of 1896 till 2016 (30), the (former/Vintage) Olympic Classes (47), including results, medal tallies, sailors and so on. A change of an article can have impact on another or at the total. Therefor changes will be done in a recurrent way. If you find errors please put it on my discussion pace first so that wil not have to make extra edit cycles.

Thanks in advance,
