As expert on the qualification procedures (especially for small nations): do you think it would be interesting to open a thread where we keep track of which countries get the Tripartite quotas in which sports? I think it would be interesting to have a total overview of that, but the thread we're in right now isn't the right one (as of course there might be Tripartite spots going to already qualified NOC's).

We had that thread in 2012 so don't worry.

 

And it's actually better to name it "wild card thread" rather then "tripartite quotas thread". All tripartite quotas are wild cards, but not all wild cards are tripartite quotas. In tennis and shooting we will have wild cards for non-tripartite nations.

Yes, I (or someone else can) will open a thread once the first wild card places have been released. We should be getting our first ones within the next few weeks, if not at the end of May.

Monaco has become the first unqualified nation to be given a tripartite quota. The nation (along with all future others) will be kept on the list until it qualifies through normal means.

Sao Tome and Principe have qualified in the Men's C1 1000m because Senegal did not start in any event in the 2015 World Championships.

You sure? The African champs said they were eligible.
