1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	Remove quotation marks, do not capitalize universality: ...earned a "Universality place" to enter the games. Do not capitalize judo and swimming: The Gambia made their début appearances in the Judo and Swimming events. I do not believe Rio is in England: and the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro,[1] England. Games is capitalized: ..a summer games is ten.. Change to 'participated': The Gambia would participate Should this be in the article? - An NOC would be able to enter up to three qualified athletes in each individual event as long as each athlete met the "A" standard, or one athlete per event if they met the "B" standard. This sounds a little awkward, do we have the coach's name instead? - the coach for the sole swimmer Pap D. Jonga Remove the word equal (same with woman's section): Overall he finished 39th equal out Change to 52nd: Overall she finished 52th Rephrase this, I am not sure what it is supposed to say: After the games Bass stated she wanted to compete at her best performance and cited the lack of running she had was partially responsible for her finishing position. Still one place where summer needs capitalized and several where games needs capitalized.
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
	2c. it contains no original research.
	2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
	7. Overall assessment.

@Kees08: The above issues raised have now been rectified. With regards to the qualifying point, it explains how the Olympic team was able to select their athletes for the games and I believe it should remain in the article. MWright96 (talk) 09:11, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
