Oppose Per the 1928 official report (PDF copy here), the 1960 report (PDF) and the 1964 report (PDF), the nation was simply known as "Rhodesia" at the Olympic Games for these three Olympiads. — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 22:38, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Short but good article. Putting on hold for now. — Yellow Dingo (talk) 05:45, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Yellow Dingo: Thanks for reviewing - I hadn't realised about the bolding; I'm going to go back to the other articles I've recently taken to GA and de-bold those too. Miyagawa (talk) 09:38, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I should have also said - I've made those changes you suggested! :) Miyagawa (talk) 09:38, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ok Miyagawa looks good. I'm happy to pass this article. Well done! — Yellow Dingo (talk) 09:42, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
