Talk:Jamaica national bobsleigh team

message: The Italian language version, it:Squadra nazionale giamaicana di bob , and the German-language version de:Jamaikanische Bobmannschaft seem to be fairly similar to the English version which was deleted for copyright violation. I'm worried that a straight-forward translation of a copyright violation may be a copyright violation itself. Andjam 13:22, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm confused - this article says that they placed 14th and 10th for 4-man and 2-man respectively, but it doesn't match up with these results:
http://www.todor66.com/olim/1992w/Bobsleigh_Fours.html - Shows them as finishing 25th
http://www.todor66.com/olim/1992w/Bobsleigh_Doubles.html - Shows them as finishing 35th and 36th
Am I way off here, or did someone screw up the results?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Razordu30 (talk • contribs) 14:25, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Current Jamaican Bobsled Lineup" 

message: "The Jamaican four man Bobsled team debuted at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta. They came close to medalling, and probably would have, had their sled not broken during their final run. They did, however, succeed in winning a moral victory by carrying their broken sled across the finish line."
This is not true. This happened in the Disney movie, but not in reality. They didn't come close to medalling, their sled didn't break and they didn't carry it across the finish line. This paragraph should be removed or changed.(213.10.46.8 (talk) 00:45, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I've reverted a number of edits, going back over two weeks. Most seem vandalism etc. but as I have no understanding of the subject I hope someone else can help check if things are right now. Thanks.--94.196.62.198 (talk) 21:41, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

message: The dates given for the winter olympics don't add up, they aren't at four year intervals. I don't know which are the correct dates though so I can't edit it  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.97.22 (talk) 16:14, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Everything I have read indicate that Irving "Irv" Blitzer is a fictional character created solely for the Disney film, but the Origins section indicates that he and George B. Fitch started the team. Can someone confirm either way? Doconeill (talk) 23:40, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Nevermind...recent edits changed the name. I've reverted it back to the original name in the article of William Maloney. Doconeill (talk) 23:50, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

message: This video shoes the original footage; looks like they did indeed shake hands, but did not push their own sled over the line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nm4DjRcmoPY

message: The article has an uncited link to the "2000 world push in monaco". The closest I can find is the International Bobsled and Skeleton Federation" world cup which in 2000 was not in monaco and does not list jamaica as winning.
Perhaps this should be checked a bit deeper and listed as "Unsupported claim"?   Patbahn (talk) 19:23, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
