Renaming of Olympic Series

Many Olympics are represented in multiple series, and the naming of the series are inconsistent.

Can admins do bulk modification and merging of series names? If so, could some admin clean up the name of the series for Olympic games?

Below is a list of current series for Olympic games with my suggestions for the new or consolidated name.

Hello,

Good idea, 264 changes manually done for Canada (French and English Series Names).

1976, 1984 and 2010 Olympics.

I had to add some descriptions for the series for the 1976 Olympics. Series 1 to 7.

I also added (circulation) at the end of the series names for the 25 cents circulation coins of the 2010 Winter Olympics and Paralympics.

I hope this will make sense to you and your life easier. 😉

Best regards,

We cant do bulk changes sorry. If you share a suggestion for automatic changes (which chain of characters to which other whain) maybe we can ask NumistaRobot?
