14 medals?

I don't understand the line "Men will compete in both disciplines whereas women will only take part in the freestyle events with 14 gold medals being awarded". The medal total for Wrestling events is 18, the medals in freestyle events are 11 (7 for men, 4 for women). So where this total of 14 comes from? Kumagoro-42 (talk) 10:15, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

"Swede throws down medal, faces probe"

here are two Reuters articles about the Swedish Wrestler, Ara Abrahamian, throwing his bronze medal on the mat and quiting the sport.

• Those links don't work. Wikinews has an article about it that I'm integrating into overall encyclopedia article. --ZeWrestler ^Talk 03:55, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

I've added Aras name again and crossed it out. This, in my pov, is a better way to show that he won the bronze and later got stripped of it.W-dahl (talk) 12:00, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Besik was disqualified for London 2012, not for 2008. Please check. --Акутагава (talk) 15:23, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
