There is; it's a condensed way of saying "The delegation consisted of 28 men and arrived on 15 November", and if the text was kept without commas it would introduce a lack of clarity as it suggests that a "delegation of 28 men" arrived on that date but doesn't confirm if that is the whole delegation
211:
seems so trivial that I didn't know if there was some hidden or different meaning. The sentence is also written as if the reader knows that the Olympics gives out event handbooks and the reader knows why and who they give them out to. Overall, the sentence needs removing or the phrasing needs
634: 539:
Oh, I can see the confusion. I don't know how to resolve your misunderstanding; that's the jargon of how these scores are recorded: 60 means they got every shot on target. So if it said 500/50, someone would have missed 10 shots completely, but the rest were perfect.
333:
Is there no argument that the fact the organizing committee grouped "similar eating habits", and which nations Venezuela was therefore grouped with, is interesting? The article's scope is the national presence at the Games, not just results tables.
278:
Generally the attachés are mentioned in these articles. Usually they are significant people in Olympic committees, though Bond here doesn't appear to be, and is only named in official documents in the (fairly sexist) manner here.

point 2. No work on the article was completed after 20 March when the nom replied to the discussion stating they would. Therefore, I will fail this article. Please get in contact with me if you have any questions. Kind regards,

It has been about a month since the GAR was opened and I don't believe the issues have been sufficiently addressed. I am particularly concerned about the over-reliance on a single, dated source which makes the

How did the individual and team races differ? Were they competed in the same race, or were there two sperate races both held on the same day? Also, you should include a date. The articles (

Not many exist, and Australia has tight laws. A blurry opening ceremony image wouldn't be sufficiently fair use. Sweden are a bit more lax but I could only confirm two photos.
691:
I am referring to the previous sub section; the total possible score isn't mentioned in the previous sub-section and I am assuming it is out of 1200. This needs clarification
80: 70: 115: 17: 728:
In general, I'm concerned with the over-reliance on one source. Also, the excessive use of sports-reference isn't ideal as it really only lists results.
659:
You capitalise 'Running Deer' and 'Running Target' in the section, but in the section title, it is uncapitalised. This should be fixed for consistency.
633:
It's actually unknown. No official record mentions it, and since 1956 is the only time the event was run in this format, it can't be compared. See how
92: 75: 478:
Because no equestrian events happened in Australia, thus preventing strict regulations being put in place for the Olympic horses.
735:
The official report is pretty comprehensive, though sports-reference has great score breakdowns that aren't expanded on in it.
156: 384:
No. The sources are limited because being an early Olympics for Venezuela, and not winning anything, the media didn't care.
782:
I have replied to your comments. Please let me know when you have replied or edited the article accordingly. Kind regards,
209:
The Venezuelan Olympic Committee (VOC) received a total of 130 event handbooks, including 15 each for fencing and shooting

What needs clarifying? It's a handbook for an event, and presumably the context clues help if somehow you don't get that.
758:
on hold to give me time to think about whether this should be promoted and to let you address the issues. Kidn regards,

I don't think this is important enough to merit inclusion. It also isn't specific given we don't know their first name.

I just suggested different wording as I believe it makes more sense to say 'out of' than just 'of'.

The details on dining halls and eating arrangements are trivial and shouldn't be included.

In the running deer event, you don't mention what the score is out of. Presumably 600?

don't (can't) mention it, either. Can't include what we don't know.

In the results box in the track section, it should be 42.0 not 42.

Any more images that can be used would help the article greatly.

What is an "event handbook"? May need clarification.
