Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games

Hi, this list needs a bit of update. 2021 event never happened (cancelled) and next one will be in 2026 (and not 2025), also Oceania NOCs are not invited anymore. therefore I recommend removing 2021 and change 2025 to 2026. beside that the next Asian Beach Games will be held in April 2026. thanks in advance.

I'll see about getting them updated. Primefac (talk) 22:05, 13 December 2025 (UTC)

File:Yellow check.svg Partly done; I updated the dates for the games accordingly, but since 2021 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games exists and has a fairly reasonable article there, it kinda needs to stay for use in {{games year list}}. As far as Oceania goes, though, 2026 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games says that they will be participating as full members. Primefac (talk) 12:57, 14 December 2025 (UTC)

I don't know about the technical part but that 2021 event did not happened and the OCA doesn't count it, the next one in 2026 is listed as the 6th edition. for example 1944 Olympics got cancelled, but when I check nations at the Olympics pages, like this one I can't see those cancelled years in the box. and in that case IOC actually counts 1944 as the 13rd Olympics, in this case OCA doesn't even count he 2021 edition. so in my opinion if technically possible, it should be removed. right now for most countries it's a redlink like this one

and about the Oceania countries, I know that was a one time thing in 2017 and that part you mentioned is just copy/pasted from the previous one (and unreferenced) but that's OK, we can wait one more year to see that.Sports2021 (talk) 14:33, 14 December 2025 (UTC)

Apologies, this fell off my radar, I'll take another look soon. Primefac (talk) 10:33, 3 February 2026 (UTC) 21:11, 1 April 2026 (UTC)

Open date ranges

Template:Edit template-protected Where no end year is specified, please add "present". MOS:TOPRESENT says Do not use incomplete-looking constructions such as Template:Nobr which is what the template currently does (see e.g. United Team of Germany at the 1956 Summer Olympics).

Wrong template, but I'll see about updating it. Primefac (talk) 22:32, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

I'm not sure I understand your question; Palestine only has the one article so everything else is of course going to be redlinked. Primefac (talk) 09:52, 17 February 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for that. In the future, it's easy enough to just give me the country names since all I have to do is add a , 2026 to their entry (saves a bit of space here). Primefac (talk) 19:41, 27 February 2026 (UTC)
