Titles

Articles

The Winter Olympic Games-related articles are named according to one of the following six types of titles:

1. [Year] Winter Olympics
For articles describing each edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. 1952 Winter Olympics);
2. [Sport] at the Winter Olympics
For articles describing the history and evolution of a specific Olympic sport at the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Alpine skiing at the Winter Olympics);
3. [Country] at the Olympics
For articles describing the history and performance of a specific National Olympic Committee (NOC) at the Olympic Games (e.g. Norway at the Olympics);
4. [Country] at the [Year] Winter Olympics
For articles describing the performance of a specific NOC at a specific edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Norway at the 1952 Winter Olympics);
5. [Sport] at the [Year] Winter Olympics
For articles describing the global results in a specific sport at a specific edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Alpine skiing at the 1952 Winter Olympics);
6. [Sport] at the [Year] Winter Olympics – [Event]
For articles describing the results of a specific sport's event (if the sport has multiple events, e.g. speed skating) at a specific edition of the Winter Olympic Games (e.g. Alpine skiing at the 1952 Winter Olympics – Men's downhill).

The first three types are considered "main level" pages, meaning they are at the top of the page hierarchy and hold similar but independent ranks within the project. They are the "parent" articles from which the following two page types (4 & 5) are derived. The last type (6) derives from type 5 for multi-event sports/disciplines.

Templates

There are also many templates which help with the navigation between related Winter articles. These template pages are named in the following manner:

1. Template:[Sport] at the Winter Olympics
To navigate between per-Games articles of a specific Winter Olympic sport (e.g. Template:Alpine skiing at the Winter Olympics);
2. Template:Events at the [Year] Winter Olympics
To navigate between articles of all sports at a specific Winter Olympic Games edition (e.g. Template:Events at the 1952 Winter Olympics).
