Thanks for letting me know. You're welcome to add the missing tournaments, of course ;-) .Do you know any pages on Wikipedia showing the matches or on the FIFA site? For the Olympics you might start a new repo. Thanks again for the info. Cheers.
I'll take a look, i'm also interested to update Copa América, will try it with some motivation!
Hey guys, I'm not sure if you are still updating this page. There is now documentation of the 1924 and 1928 Summer Olympics.
@JorgeQuijano Thanks for letting us know. You're welcome to add it to a new summer-olympics repo or something. Cheers.
FIFA official website say FIFA Congress was held on 28 May 1928 (not the 26th). http://www.fifa.com/about-fifa/who-we-are/history/first-fifa-world-cup.html
"Early years 1924 - 1930 At the 1924 Congress, FIFA agreed to assume responsibility for the organisation of the Olympic Football Tournament by ratifying the proposal that “on condition that the Olympic Football Tournament takes place in accordance with the Regulations of FIFA, the latter shall recognise this as a world football championship”.
Thanks for the update. Again you're more than welcome to add the missing tournaments, of course ;-) Anyone?
FYI: I'm just a regular random nobody. Not sure what else I can do - feels kind of funny - hundreds of people watching how a random idiot (e.g. your humble servant) updates the dataset. If you want to see something added, add it - yes, you can! Cheers. Prost.
If starts in 1930, then its missing something important .. The Uruguayan jersey has 4 stars [1] Two of them representing gold medals received at the 1924 and 1928 Summer Olympics [2], recognised by FIFA as World Championships. [3]
