Copyvio[edit]

Earwig says good to go. No concerns from me either.

Files[edit]

Good to go. Only file, File:Flag of Maldives.svg, is public domain.

Prose[edit]

The lead sentence looks slightly jagged to me. How about something along the lines of "The Maldives competed at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, from 17 September to 2 October 1988. This marked their first time participating in the Olympic Games."?
"and no Maldivian has won a medal in any events." – change to "and no Maldivian has won a medal at the Olympics." as events could be confused with individual events at the Olympics.
"parade of nations of the opening ceremony." – wikilink to 1988 Summer Olympics opening ceremony.
"for the Maldives during the parade of nations of the opening ceremony." – wikilink these two as they are in the lead.
"going on to represent the Maldives at the 1996 games." – in which city? Also;
Wikilink 1996 Summer Olympics.
"(men's 100 metres and men's 200 metres)" – could these be wikilinked to somewhere like the men's 400 metres is?

References[edit]

Good to go, RS; formatted correctly; passes spotcheck on refs 1, 4 and 9.
