@2016WUJI01 2016WUJI01 requested a review from a team as a code owner February 25, 2026 22:03

- **Cancelled registrations**: Registrations that were cancelled by either the competitor or the organization team. These competitors will not compete, and their spot may be offered to someone on the waiting list.

- **Deleted registrations**: Registrations that were removed from the system. Unlike cancelled registrations, deleted registrations are completely removed and may not retain historical records.

We don’t have “deleted registrations” - I assume you mean “rejected.” If so, the difference between cancelled and rejected is that people with a cancelled status can register again, while those on the rejected list cannot.

The rejected status is rarely used. The only use case that comes to mind is when someone is banned and delegates are instructed to change their status to rejected.

I'm closing this review since it is an outdated version.

My understanding is that this is for competitors who must not compete (e.g. banned or anonymized competitors) as well as duplicate registrations. I'll ask the WCAT for more clarity.
