There was a majority to delete it, but sadly not large enough. It threatens to grow completely out of control. It looks like the coverage of the 2012 Olympics is going to be badly organised, which is a great pity. CalJW 18:56, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Your behaviour has been the bit that's been a "great pity" and I'm very happy that your attempts to mess up all the decent organisation of these articles has come to naught. Shame that you had to waste people's time with your actions rather than discussing it and possibly brainstorming an even better solution (or at least a compromise). violet/riga (t) 19:13, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

It seems to me that this article is primarily made up of repetition. The majority of information could be included on the main "2012 Summer Olympics" page. That page needs to be kept up to date with the developments of the bid (that currently are detailed on this page) or else it will simply become a repetition of the "London 2012 Olympic Bid" page that is a historical account of the London bid. At present this page looks to be a combination of the two and the information could easily be split to make the whole organisation more coherant.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by S Newton (talk • contribs).

It contains tons of information not included anywhere else. I will do a push on it to add announcements from the past few months. violet/riga (t) 22:25, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

OK, I take your point and there is some worthwhile content here, but at the same time the main London 2012 page needs to be kept up to date ith all the developments. This page might serve a useful purpose as a record of how changes and developments have taken place over time, rather than as an 'update' of the main page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by S Newton (talk • contribs).

I would definitely keep this - Much of East London is to be developed or redeveloped as part of the Olympics - essentially none of the Olympic infrastructure is built at the moment. RHB 16:34, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Terrorist attack

Yes, Pam Am 103 exploded whilst in the air not on the "soil" but bare in mind that 11 people in the town of Lockerbie also died. The original statement is misleading.81.159.77.176 14:44, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Olympic Stadium picture

I thought this stadium was cancelled and another one was scheduled. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.49.123.206 (talk) 18:24, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
