Will do this soon. JAGUAR 14:55, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"since its debut in 1972" - in the 1972 Games
"Omar's story was covered by the media at the time" - for unfamiliar readers it would be better to briefly explained what happened. How about Omar's disappearance?
"Abdinasir Said Ibrahim was chosen to compete in the Men's 5000 m and Samiya Yuusf Omar in the Women's 200 m" - write out metres
No dead links
No DAB links

When I joined the competition I thought to myself "right, I'm going to make these reviews as comprehensive as I can"! Unfortunately those were the only issues I could find with this, otherwise this almost meets the criteria. JAGUAR 17:39, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review. I've only added a little to the lead on Omar, as I was referring to the media coverage at the time of the Games rather than in 2012 regarding her death. It was because of the work on this article that I ended up working up her's too. Miyagawa (talk) 17:44, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I'll probably review that article once I'm finished with this batch. Promoted
