2014 Olympics edit

The row about the 2014 Olympics in Sochi, Russia appears to have the designers of the mascots listed in the character section. The designers section of that row is blank. Should I make the correction? Bfotino (talk) 22:37, 15 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Goku? edit

I heard that Son Goku from Dragon Ball Z was named the ambassador for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Does this count as the mascot for the 2020 Summer Olympics?Johnny Brockman (talk) 08:23, 8 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

This is unconfirmed, so I would hold back until we get official word. Retroity (talk) 23:37, 26 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

First Official Mascot edit

There seems to be a contradiction over what the first official mascot was. Either it was:

  • Smoky, a Scottish terrier, 1932 or
  • Waldi, a dachshund, 1972.

Two sources are given for the 1932 mascot, one a blog,[1] the other a Time magazine article,[2] but the official Olympic site claims the first was in 1972.[3] Is there any other source material supporting either side? Relspas (talk) 23:09, 18 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
