Talk:Iran at the 1976 Summer Olympics

Olymic debut.

"It was the eighth appearance of the Asian nation, which made its Olymic debut in 1948." Two other articles state that Iran made its debut at the Paris 1900 Games. I'm fixing this article accordingly. Feel free to revert if it's the other two articles which are in error (but that seems unlikely, given that one of them names the Iranian athlete who competed).

Referencing.

The reason I'm adding notes to the shooting section is because not noting that one of the competitors only took part in 5 rounds, distorts the picture of total points for those who took part in all 8 rounds.

As for inline references, wp:v states "All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation. [...] This policy is strictly applied to all material in the mainspace—articles, lists, sections of articles, and captions—without exception, and in particular to material about living persons. Anything that requires but lacks a source may be removed, and unsourced contentious material about living persons must be removed immediately. For how to write citations, see Citing sources. Verifiability is one of Wikipedia's core content policies".

This page is just for summary, A SUMMARY. everyone can click on Trap to know more details about the score. but This page is just for summary. this is not a place for details like all XXX at the XXX Summer Olympics pages. also this page is well referenced.

Page format edits... if page wasn't locked

No wish to get involved in whatever edit war has occured here but I would have made a few changes to the format, particularly regarding forced table widths and background colours, if the page wasn't fully protected. For those editing here please see WP:OLYMOSNAT for guidelines on how this page should be formatted and if any extra input on an Olympic related dispute is required Wikiproject Olympics is a good place to go.

And the intro needs updating - "tho FIFA" needs changing, and the last fullstop should be before the ref tags. Lugnuts (talk) 10:01, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
