Concerns and controversies section2
@Rodney Baggins: @Kaffe42: I'm actually a staff of the Tokyo Olympic games. But you two are not that, aren't you? The explanation seems like it is gossip included. I'll rewrite it this weekend. And, Korean Sport & Olympic Committee was officially informed by IOC. According to this article, IOC says, KSOC are against the facts. So, we need to fix this section. Selselumi2020 (talk)

2020 Summer Olympics → 2021 Summer Olympics – it was originally meant to take place in 2020 but was rescheduled to 2021 due to the covid-19 virus. ~2026-38391-81 (talk) 17:03, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose per WP:COMMONNAME. 162 etc. (talk) 20:12, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose. Nothing has changed since the previous RM discussion. These Olympics were still branded as 2020, and still remains the WP:COMMONNAME. Zzyzx11 (talk) 20:20, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose per WP:COMMONNAME, while the branding is "wrong" that is the name they kept using and other media outlets used to refer to the event. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 01:54, 8 July 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose per WP:COMMONNAME as the event still is known by the 2020 branding. Raskuly 🐰 01:22, 14 July 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose It was supposed to be held in 2020. But due to pandemic situation, the games were postponed. The games administration didn't changed their name from Tokyo 2020 to Tokyo 2021 during the games and also the IOC as well. So the name should not be changed.
