Swaziland at the Olympics → Eswatini at the Olympics – Should match the new country name, which is Eswatini. Ben5218 (talk) 20:11, 5 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Support Per main article. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:30, 5 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Oppose this one. I think it is relevant that no country has participated in the Olympics under the name Eswatini yet. It can be moved later, if it happens. 216.8.184.122 (talk) 13:27, 6 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Oppose As Eswatini have not yet competed at the Olympics, and the historic name is Swaziland. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 17:20, 6 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

- We have Eswatini Olympic and Commonwealth Games Association, which is fine. The problem is we do not know for certain that Eswatini will ever participate under its new name. It is probable, but not certain. 216.8.184.122 (talk) 12:22, 8 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Eswatini has never competed at the Olympics. Swaziland, however, has. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Oppose. Eswatini hasn’t participated in the Olympics under that name. Revisionism. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:42, 12 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Support. But keep the year article before the name change at Swaziland. See the example of Category:Myanmar at the Summer Olympics by year, the name changed in 1989. Hddty. (talk) 04:20, 14 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
