Where is the information?[edit]

Where are the matches played?, the group tables?, and the knockout rounds?Selecciones de la Vida 19:48, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Men's tournament are U-23 teams, not the 'regular' national teams -- is it appropriate to wikilink to things like Greece national football team? -- Kaihsu 09:50, 2004 Jul 5 (UTC)

I was thinking the same thing, and was planning to link them just to the country, but haven't got around to it yet. Earl Andrew 17:16, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I'm not sure what the table represents. Is "Pld" games played, or Placed? Is "Pts" total goals scored, or are wins/draws given points? If so, is it 1 point for a draw and 2 points for a win, or other results? RickK 19:52, Aug 11, 2004 (UTC)

I think the link in the main page should say Football/Soccer as users may get confused with American Football. Just my anonymous 2 pences.

Pld means played, and 3 points for a win if I am not mistaken? Earl Andrew 23:58, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)


VERY POOR ARTICLE, The Spanish version is much better and complete, please equalize this version or, at least, translate it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.223.149.17 (talk) 08:48, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation[edit]

If you check this section of the official website, you will see that when you place the arrow over the pictogram, the text says that they are property of the ATHOC (ATHens Organizing Committee). Is there any cause for this to be considered fair use? As a matter of fact, there are quite a few articles on olympic events displaying the respective pictograms, it would appear that all of them will have to be removed. Redux 05:14, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)

`Someone totally changed the makeup of the whole page, and now it's absolutely meaningless.

Colors[edit]

Can someone explain why certain teams in the tables are colored pink, green, etc? --Golbez 16:06, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Someone just changed colors; please, an explanation as to what they mean! --Golbez 17:30, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Am I going to have to vandalize the page itself to get an answer? :P --Golbez 19:20, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I didn't do the coloring, so I'm not sure what the person doing it was thinking, but it appears to me that the colors show which teams qualified for the quarterfinals (with the blue and greenish colors qualifying, and the pink not). - Jonel 21:19, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Footballlogo.jpg[edit]

Image:Footballlogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
