I added information about a fire that broke out near the stadium on the 12th November 2007 - article is here:[ [1]]
I perhaps expect this will become a seperate article anyway if the fire continues. DBAlex 15:11, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Unless I have missed it elsewhere on Wikipedia, I am surprised that the criticisms of the design of the main building have not been included here. I have not included the public response - which, from some of the articles I have read, have been less than positive. Johnny.d2007 15:50, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
The 'reaction' section is horribly bias. There is a quick one line introduction and then a list of criticisms. Hardly a balanced view! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.37.49 ( talk) 16:20, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Maybe worth a mention is that this is the first olympic stadium in modern times where construction has caused zero deaths ( http://blog.pksafety.com/safety-in-olympic-stadium-construction-earns-award/ http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/london-2012-olympic-park-to-receive-833783) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.90.6.195 ( talk) 11:45, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
Structural-art qualifications How can something have four times less something (steel)? One quarter as much? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.108.5.9 ( talk) 03:14, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
Saracens RUFC also have some interest in moving to the ground once it has been down-sized http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2008/aug/24/saracens.rugbyunion —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.71.243.252 ( talk) 18:11, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Anyone can tell something about the orientation (positioning?) of the Stadium? I think it could be interesting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.29.227.11 ( talk) 13:36, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
Given that the Olympic Stadium will be the "New West Ham Stadium", I don't think it's right to have a separate page, when the options for West Ham can be included as a section in this article. Hammersfan ( talk) 13:33, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
Any reason why there is no info on the transport network and moving people and vehicles to and from the stadium? Atlas-maker ( talk) 10:53, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

London Legacy Development Company (LLDC) has awarded the contract to London Stadium 185 ltd (VINCI Stadium subsidiary) to operate the stadium. http://queenelizabetholympicpark.co.uk/news/news-articles/2015/2/mayor-announces-vinci-appointed-as-operator-for-former-olympic-stadium Could the name of the stadium operator be updated?

The stadium is a public transportation venue first.
Would it be possible to add a subsection about tube and trains, on top of the bus existing one. Information in sync with Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park guidelines can be found here http://www.london-stadium.com/plan-your-visit/gettinghere
Etienne EtienneSoumoy ( talk) 08:14, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the requests @ EtienneSoumoy:. I've updated the operator and the transport guidelines. What we can't do is update the images - please see Wikipedia's image policy. What's important is that our images are released under some form of free use licence, so that our information can be copied freely for others to share. While we'd like to update the images, we'll need the copyright owner to release the image under a suitable licence. If you're from Vinci and the images belong to your company, then you can chose to release one or more images for us to use if you want - the easiest way to do this is probably to upload the file yourself and then let us know here so that we can add it to the page.
I hope that all makes sense. Thanks for showing caution in editing a page that you're connected to: we don't recommend that people or companies edit their own pages, so thank if there's anything else you want to discuss then raising it here is probably appropriate. If you're struggling to get a reply at any point, then putting the request on your user page with the {{adminhelp}} tag will get you some assistance!

Hello
I wanted to submit several changes
STADIUM TOURS You mention in "stadium interior" that LLDC is considering organising tours. It has been validated and will start this summer (probably Aug). Could we have it in a separate section to call it our at currently no visitor would look into "stadium interior" to find intel about tours
STADIUM OPERATOR It is written that VINCI operates Parc des Princes. No this belongs to a Qatar Hedge Funds. Instead VINCI Stadium operates Stade de France, Allianz Riviera, Matmut Atlantique and MM Arena Information can be found here http://www.vinci-concessions.com/en/what-we-do/stadiums/
STADIUM INTERIOR The new pitch has been seeded recently to be ready to host first West Ham Game http://www.whufc.com/News/Articles/2016/June/8-June/Stadium-seeding-starts
STADIUM STORE AND COFFEE SHOP A new store and coffee shop has just now opened http://www.whufc.com/News/Articles/2016/June/23-June/Hammers-cut-ribbon-at-new-Stadium-Store
UPCOMING EVENTS The stadium hosts like last year the great newham run this summer http://www.greatrun.org/great-newham-london-run
We now know there will be a friendly game West Ham v Juventus on Aug 7 http://www.whufc.com/Tickets/Match-Tickets/Event/West-Ham-United-v-Juventus
And the FA has released the 2016/17 fixtures table http://www.thefa.com/news/2016/jun/english-football-league-fixtures-220616 http://www.whufc.com/Fixtures/First-Team/Fixture-and-Results
CORPORATE EVENTS/ PRIVATE PARTIES Could we mention somewhere that the stadium will be available for hiring for corporate events and private parties later this year?
PICTURE I have uploaded my first pic FloodlitLondonStadium.jpg. I am not sure I did the right thing, so please let me know if I need to amend.
Last I think it is sometimes confusing to distinguishing between the stadium as it was for London 2012, and the stadium now. Would it be worth having 2 separate design subsections?
Thank you Etienne EtienneSoumoy ( talk) 05:27, 24 June 2016 (UTC)

Thank you BR Etienne EtienneSoumoy ( talk) 10:32, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
Hello
Would it be possible to add the following items:
- Pitch size: it is a normal Premier League approved pitch 105 by 68 metres (115 by 74 yd) - Surface: can we spell out Desso's full name Desso GrassMaster and add a link /info/en/?search=Desso_GrassMaster - Website: could you please call out the website URL www.london-stadium.com like for Wembley (bottom of right panel /info/en/?search=Wembley_Stadium) - Operator: could you replace VINCI Stadium by London Stadium 185 ltd which is the company specifically created by VINCI Stadium to operate London Stadium http://www.vinci-concessions.com/en/what-we-do/stadiums/ - Transport section: would it be possible to add a table with the different TFL lines like for Wembley - Transport : same for bus, it is great on Wembley's page - Transport: I have a map with the access routes to the stadium. Where can I upload it to be used on this page? - Football: the fixture table for 2016/17 Premier League season has now been announce. Is it possible to add a table with upcoming West Ham matches planned at the stadium? http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2016-17/jun/2016-2017-premier-league-fixture-list.html

I'm assuming it's not possible to change the name of this article? The name "Olympic Stadium" hasn't been used officially for a good few years now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pigammon ( talk • contribs) 09:42, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
Do we really need to name (and link) every person who set a record during the 2012 Paralympics in the London 2012 section. It doesn't really provide readable prose that way. Also WP:SEAOFBLUE. T v x1 12:18, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved( closed by non-admin page mover) Kostas20142 ( talk) 10:41, 16 August 2017 (UTC)
Olympic Stadium (London) →
London Stadium – When it was previously suggested that the article be moved to the stadium's current official name, it was thought at the time that it was too soon to see if the name would catch on. It is now clear that the London Stadium name is overwhelmingly used by sources, such as the BBC
[3], Telegraph
[4], Guardian
[5] and Sky Sports
[6], for example. The Olympic Stadium name looks somewhat odd and outdated these days.

Hello
Would it be possible to add the following items:
- Pitch size: it is a normal Premier League approved pitch 105 by 68 metres (115 by 74 yd) - Surface: can we spell out Desso's full name Desso GrassMaster and add a link /info/en/?search=Desso_GrassMaster - Website: could you please call out the website URL www.london-stadium.com like for Wembley (bottom of right panel /info/en/?search=Wembley_Stadium) - Operator: could you replace VINCI Stadium by London Stadium 185 ltd which is the company specifically created by VINCI Stadium to operate London Stadium http://www.vinci-concessions.com/en/what-we-do/stadiums/ - Transport section: would it be possible to add a table with the different TFL lines like for Wembley - Transport : same for bus, it is great on Wembley's page - Transport: I have a map with the access routes to the stadium. Where can I upload it to be used on this page? - Football: the fixture table for 2016/17 Premier League season has now been announce. Is it possible to add a table with upcoming West Ham matches planned at the stadium? http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2016-17/jun/2016-2017-premier-league-fixture-list.html

I'm assuming it's not possible to change the name of this article? The name "Olympic Stadium" hasn't been used officially for a good few years now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pigammon ( talk • contribs) 09:42, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
Do we really need to name (and link) every person who set a record during the 2012 Paralympics in the London 2012 section. It doesn't really provide readable prose that way. Also WP:SEAOFBLUE. T v x1 12:18, 5 August 2017 (UTC)

Olympic Stadium (London) →
London Stadium – When it was previously suggested that the article be moved to the stadium's current official name, it was thought at the time that it was too soon to see if the name would catch on. It is now clear that the London Stadium name is overwhelmingly used by sources, such as the BBC
[3], Telegraph
[4], Guardian
[5] and Sky Sports
[6], for example. The Olympic Stadium name looks somewhat odd and outdated these days.

I am not sure it's necessary to have the table, I think a paragraph or two would be enough. Article already feels too long. Govvy ( talk) 10:24, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
This sport (or group of sports events) is known in British English as Athletics not Track & Field. This article should reflect this. SteadyJames ( talk) 07:35, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
