The Manual of Style (Games summary – Nations) sets out the style guidelines recommended by the WikiProject Olympics to achieve a consistent format for articles describing the results obtained by the competitors of a specific National Olympic Committee (henceforth referred simply as "nation") at an edition of the Olympic Games or Paralympic Games. These articles can be found under the categories: Nations at the Summer Olympics, Nations at the Winter Olympics, Nations at the Summer Paralympics, and Nations at the Winter Paralympics.

Summary

edit

Articles describing the participation of a nation at a specific edition of the Olympic or Paralympic Games must contain three important elements:

  • An infobox template specific for that nation, where data such as medal count, flag bearers, and links to participation in other editions of the Games is quickly presented;
  • A medalists section, containing a table listing all medal winners from that nation, at that specific edition;
  • A results by sport section, containing results for every competitor in every sport where that nation was represented.

These main elements must follow the conventions presented hereafter, to promote layout consistency and data organization throughout the whole article series.

Winter Olympics appearances (overview)

An infobox template, derived from {{Infobox country at games}}, is transcluded at the beginning of the corresponding article's lead section. It provides a summarized table with the most important information concerning a nation's participation at the Olympic or Paralympic Games, as well as a history section allowing the navigation through its other participations.

See example on the right. Please fill in the following information:

NOC or NPC
The three-letter country code assigned the country by IOC or the IPC (see List of IOC country codes)
year
The four digit year of the games (eg 2016)
games
The name of the games (eg Winter Olympics)
games_link
Link to games article (eg 2016 Summer Olympics)
flagcaption
Caption the country's flag (eg. Flag of the United States)
alt
Alternate text for the visually impaired. (eg. Refer to caption)
NOCname or NPCname
Link to the country's Olympic or Paralympic Committee (eg. French National Olympic and Sports Committee)
website
Website of the Olympic Committee using {{URL}} (eg. {{URL|www.dosb.de}})
location
Link to the location of the Games (eg. Athens, Greece)
date
Date of the games (eg. 9–25 February 2018)
competitors
Number of competitors for the nation at the specified Games. Use a simple number (e.g. competitors=12) or a string that also identifies the number of male and female competitors (e.g. competitors=12 (7 men, 5 women)).
sports
Number of sports in which this nation had athletes competing at the specified Games. Only supply an integer number here (e.g. sports=4) .
flagbearer
Name of the person/people who served as flagbearer at the opening and/or closing ceremonies (e.g. flagbearer=[[Veronica Campbell]] or flagbearer=[[Dirk Nowitzki]] (opening)<br/>[[Katrin Wagner-Augustin]] (closing)).
officials
Number of officials sent by the nation to the specified Games. For example, if the total delegation was 40 people and there were 24 competitors, you would use officials=16.
rank
The position on the medal table. Just the figure is required (e.g. rank=8 produces 8th)
gold
Number of gold medals won by the nation's competitors. Default is 0, if no value is specified.
silver
Number of silver medals won by the nation's competitors. Default is 0, if no value is specified.
bronze
Number of bronze medals won by the nation's competitors. Default is 0, if no value is specified.

Note that the "Total" value is computed automatically as the sum of all three medal types.

Medalists

edit

This section, placed under a level-two heading (== Medalists == or == Medallists ==, where British English is appropriate), contains a sortable table listing all the medals and respecitive medal-winning competitors from a nation at the Games.

  • The table should feature columns with the headers Medal (for the medal type won), Name (for the medal winner(s)), Sport (for the sport in which the medal winner(s) competed), Event (for the specific event where that medal was won), and Date (for the day that the medal was won).
  • The Medal column should display the medals won by the use of the templates {{gold medal}}, {{silver medal}} and {{bronze medal}}. These render sortable icon-sized images of the respective medal followed by "Gold", "Silver" or "Bronze". Do not use background colors or any other images of poorer resolution for this purpose.
  • The Name column should contain the name of the medal winners through the use of {{sortname}} so that the medalists are sorted by their surname (Chinese and Korean family names come first, so the template is not needed in these cases).
    • For pairs or teams of small or intermediate size, list medalists in separate lines (use <br />) and by alphabetical order of their surname. Use {{sortname}} only for the first medalist to enable sorting of the pair/team.
    • For large team sports, use {{columns-list|small=y}} to display the full team roster in reduced font size (it is not necessary to use {{sortname}} for the names here), and place it just after the team name, which should also be sorted and linked to its corresponding page.
  • Medalists, sports and events should all be linked to their corresponding pages, even if these currently do not exist. Sports should link to the "Sport at the year Summer Olympics" page, not the general sport article, while events should link directly to the subsidiary event results page.
  • Dates formats are optional ("Month Day" or "Day Month") but should be the consistent within the table. For sorting purposes, format dates using {{dts}}.

Example (from Sweden at the 2006 Winter Olympics):

Medal Name Sport Event Date
  Gold Anja Pärson Alpine skiing Women's slalom February 22
  Gold Anna Carin Olofsson Biathlon Women's mass start February 25
  Gold Ulrika Bergman
Cathrine Lindahl
Eva Lund
Anette Norberg
Anna Svärd		 Curling Women's team February 23
  Gold Thobias Fredriksson
Björn Lind		 Cross-country skiing Men's team sprint February 14
  Gold Björn Lind Cross-country skiing Men's individual sprint February 22
  Gold Lina Andersson
Anna Dahlberg		 Cross-country skiing Women's team sprint February 14
  Gold Sweden men's national ice hockey team
 Ice hockey Men's competition February 20
  Silver Anna Carin Olofsson Biathlon Women's sprint February 16
  Silver Sweden women's national ice hockey team
 Ice hockey Women's competition February 20
  Bronze Anja Pärson Alpine skiing Women's downhill February 15
  Bronze Anja Pärson Alpine skiing Women's combined February 18
  Bronze Anna Ottosson Alpine skiing Women's giant slalom February 24
  Bronze Mathias Fredriksson
Mats Larsson
Johan Olsson
Anders Södergren		 Cross-country skiing Men's 4 × 10 km relay February 19
  Bronze Thobias Fredriksson Cross-country skiing Men's individual sprint February 22

Results by sport

edit

Heading

edit

The results section for each sport where the competitors of a nation take part should have an level two heading (== Sport ==). The section should begin with a link to the main article of that sport for the Games in question, by means of the {{main}} template. If available, the article on the Olympic qualification for the sport can also be added.

Example: 

== Badminton ==

{{main|Badminton at the 2008 Summer Olympics|Badminton at the 2008 Summer Olympics – Qualification}}

Results tables

edit
  • Underneath these headings there should be a results table listing all athletes from the nation competing in that sport. In the case of a nation having more than six competitors in a given sport, this table may be further split into "Men" and "Women" results tables. In this case, use {{TOC limit}} in order to reduce TOC cluttering. Where this is not possible due to lower-level headings elsewhere in the article, use bold markup. i.e. use '''Men''', not ===Men===.
  • The format of the results table required will vary depending on the sport but can be in general split into three categories:
    • Those where an athlete competes against an individual or team (judo, badminton, etc.);
    • Those where an athlete competes against a field (athletics, swimming, etc.);
    • Team sports (such as football, handball, etc.).
    • More than a single athlete in a sport category, whether individual, pair, or team, must be arranged alphabetically according to their last names (Chinese, Korean, and Mongolian family names come first, so this table is not needed for these cases).

General notes on all tables

edit
  • All columns containing results or ranks should be center-aligned. The name and event columns should be left-aligned.
  • Results cells integrated in columns specific for rounds:
    • that did not occur in an event, should be filled with "N/A" using {{n/a}}
    • where the athlete received a bye, should be filled with "Bye" using {{bye}}
  • If an athlete qualified for a later round, a bolded "Q" should be placed at the right side of the rank (or "q" if it is a fastest loser qualification).
  • Ranks should be given as a cardinal number, i.e. "13" not "13th". In the case of joint placings, display an equal sign (=) before the rank number.
Records
edit
  • As stated for the qualification symbols, records should be denoted in the column of the appropriate result, at the right side of the value.
  • World records are highlighted using template {{WR}} that produces WR (link to World record). If a world record is specific for a sport, like swimming, using {{WR|swimming}} will change the link to World records in swimming; if the previous standing record was equaled, one can use {{WR|swimming|eq=y}} that yields =WR.
  • Olympic records are handled with {{OlyR}} that produces OR, linking to Olympic record. As mentioned for world records, using {{OlyR|swimming}} will create a new link to List of Olympic records in swimming; if the previous standing record was equaled, one can use {{OlyR|swimming|eq=y}} yielding =OR.
  • National record marks should be designated as "NR" (bolded)
  • Continental records using the appropriate abbreviation: AF = African record, AM = Americas record, AS = Asian record, EU = European record, OC = Oceanian record (all bolded)
Medalists
edit
  • The names of medal-winning athletes should be bolded.
  • No background colour in the athlete's row is necessary or recommended.
  • The medal icons   ({{gold1}}),   ({{silver2}}) or   ({{bronze3}}) should be placed either in the final "Rank" column or beneath the final result, if no separate column exists.

Example (from Great Britain at the 2008 Summer Olympics):

Athlete Event Heat Semifinal Final
Time Rank Time Rank Time Rank
Rebecca Adlington 400 m freestyle 4:02.24 NR 2 Q — 4:03.22  
800 m freestyle 8:18.08 OR 1 Q — 8:14.10 WR  
Key
edit
  • All abbreviations used in a results table should be explained in a key included just below that table, in the form of "XX = foo".

Example (from Great Britain at the 2008 Summer Olympics#Swimming)

Key: WR=World record; OR=Olympic record; EU=European record; CR=Commonwealth record; NR=National record; DNS=Did not start

Against an individual or team

edit
  • Sports in this category include:
  • The table should begin with "Athlete" and "Event" columns, followed by a variable number of columns for each of the competition's rounds, with the heading being the name of that round.
  • Within each round column, both the opponent and result should be registered; this is denoted by a second cell at the top of the column containing "Opposition" and "Result" (use the code !style="line-height:1em"|<small>Opposition<br />Result</small> to render properly this content within the table).
  • The name of the opponent should be given through the use of {{flagIOCathlete}} template, but only the last name should be visible.

Example: 

{{flagIOCathlete|[[Erwin Kehlhoffner|Kehlhoffner]]|FRA|2008 Summer}}
  • Results should be recorded using a bolded "W" (won) or "L" (lost), followed by the scores for each set/timed round. The main athlete's score is always presented on the left side. Scores should always be separated by an en dash (–) and not a hyphen (-), per the Manual of Style. An en dash can be inserted through the wiki markup symbol (–) or the HTML element (&ndash;).
Boxing

Example (from North Korea at the 2008 Summer Olympics):

W 6–4, 7–5 		   S. Williams (USA)
L 1–6, 2–6 		  Kirilenko (RUS)
W 6–4, 6–3 		 
  • For wrestling, each opponent must qualify for the succeeding rounds based on the classification points, not on the technical points. The following classification points are:
    • VT - Victory by Fall.
    • PP - Decision by Points - the loser with technical points.
    • PO - Decision by Points - the loser without technical points.

Example (from Japan at the 2008 Summer Olympics)

Against a field

edit
  • Sports in this category include:
  • The table should begin with "Athlete" and "Event" columns, followed by a variable number of columns for each of the competition's rounds, with the heading being the name of that round. These columns are further split into "Result" (other titles are possible, depending on the event) and "Rank" columns (a "Total" column may also be added if, at any stage, the results from multiple rounds are added up).
  • The form of recording the rank will vary between sports, depending on how qualifiers are decided:
    • For athletics, it should be the position within the heat;
    • For swimming, it is the overall rank when all heats are compared.
  • Additional columns may be needed (e.g. "Horse" for the name of the animal used in equestrian events)

Example (from Jamaica at the 2008 Summer Olympics):

Athlete Horse Event Dressage Cross-country Jumping Total
Qualifier Final
Penalties Rank Penalties Total Rank Penalties Total Rank Penalties Penalties Rank
Samantha Albert Before I Do It Individual 56.30 52 41.60 97.90 42 Did not finish

Team sports

edit
  • Sports in this category include:
  • When entering the name of a sports team, in either a results table or a match result, one should use the appropriate template, that produces the nation's flag and a link to the team's main article:

Example: 

{{bk|Argentina}}
{{Wpw-rt|HUN}}
  • The results table for groups/pools should have a league-type format, with rows dedicated to each of the group teams and columns for every relevant statistics of the sport in question.
  • Teams qualifying for the next round of the competition should be highlighted in green (#ccffcc).

Example (from United States at the 2008 Summer Olympics):

Rank Team Points Played Won Lost PW PL Ratio SW SL Ratio
1   United States 10 5 5 0 460 371 1.240 15 4 3.750
2   Italy 9 5 4 1 439 401 1.095 13 6 2.167
3   Bulgaria 8 5 3 2 446 440 1.014 10 9 1.111
4   China 7 5 2 3 445 492 0.904 9 13 0.692
5   Venezuela 6 5 1 4 421 451 0.933 8 12 0.667
6   Japan 5 5 0 5 392 448 0.875 4 15 0.267
  • Results for individual games should be recorded using sport-specific templates, like the ones shown below, with parameter keys and rendered examples:

edit

At the bottom of the page, place the template {{NOCinYearSeasonOlympics}} or {{NPCinYearSeasonParalympics}}, replacing "Year" and "Season" with the year and season, respectively, in which the Games that the article refers to took place. For example: 

{{Nations at the 2016 Summer Olympics}}
{{Nations at the 2016 Summer Paralympics}}

This template works as a navigation box between the several articles (one per nation participating at the specified Games) that are included in the "Nation at the year Season Olympics" or "Nation at the year Season Paralympics" series.

Categories

edit

This type of article should be included in the adequate categories:

  • [[Category:Nations at the <YEAR> <SEASON> Olympics]] or [[Category:Nations at the <YEAR> <SEASON> Paralympics]]
Replace <YEAR> and <SEASON> with the year and season, respectively, in which the Games that the article refers to took place (e.g. Category:Nations at the 2004 Summer Paralympics)
  • [[Category:<NATION> at the Olympics|<YEAR>]] or [[Category:<NATION> at the Paralympics|<YEAR>]]
Replace <NATION> with the name of the nation that the article refers to (e.g. Category:Togo at the Olympics). Use the appropriate year as the sort key for the category.
