Doesn't this sort of Olympic guff make you want to throw up? The Olympics should be about sporting excellence pure and simple. Honbicot 20:37, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

What about all the people wanting so much to politicize the Olympics by generating controversies such as the hosting city? Is that about sporting excellence? 68.229.152.169 05:40, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copy editing needed

I've tagged this article with a {{copyedit}} tag and listed it on WP:Cleanup since it reads more like Chinese than English and needs a native English speaker to make it more natural. I'll come back and look at it if I have time but am currently busy fixing disambiguation links. --Daduzi ^talk 18:16, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

• I've tinkered with the introductory text, but it's hard to know what to do with the gushing nonsense that follows under "Symbolism". It's entirely unencyclopedic in tone, but, when you read it, the English is not actually faulty. If considered as an extended quote from the organisers' statement then I suppose it might be acceptable (or maybe we should just link to the original somewhere?). If retained it would be good to find a way to indicate that it is a quote, but then again I am not sure how verbatim it really is. Matt 19:12, 25 July 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Possible copyvio in symbolism section

I've removed the Symbolism section because it's almost entirely copied from chinadaily.com.cn. Carson 04:13, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Who designed the logo?

The name of the company who came up with the design would be nice.203.206.41.226 12:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
