Talk:1994 Winter Olympics

Neutrality

The article uses someone opinion to make a statement that this was the greatest winter olympics? It's someone opinon thats being used to state it as a fact.

Removed the text. Breathless opinions like "ranks among the greatest sporting events in history" certainly do not belong in a dictionary. Teemu Leisti 14:02, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Medal standings

I just noticed, that the final medal count is different here, than many other places. The other places I've seen, has Norway as #1, and Russia as #2, or #3 behind Germany. I can't find anything on IOC's website, so it occurs to me, that the IOC does not rank nations that way?TheIncredibleNix 15:35, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

First Olympic event covered on the Internet

In 1994, OsloNett, the first Norwegian Internet Service provider covered the Winter Olympics results directly.

This fact is covered in the Norwegian article, but not in this one. Should we add this to the article somehow? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.114.37.107 (talk) 20:08, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

In fiction

Should we have a few words about the movie I, Tonya ? 131.176.243.9 (talk) 14:52, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

Philately vs Actual Pictures

There is a preponderance of stamp illustrations in this article. It's like the article itself picked up a hobby. Much as we all love Azerbaijan, Why the stamps? Why can't we have real photos of actual olympians? -- Srwalden (talk) 00:11, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
