Photo Copyright edit

The caption for the photo of Alvin Kraenzlein was unnecessarily categorized for early deletion--tainting the look of this article. The photo itself is listed as pubic domain and certainly not subject to deletion. I will remove the early deletion notice and rhetorically have to ask why people put these stupid remarks into articles.

Top ten edit

The top ten table shold have the top ten athletes not the top ten performances. At least that is how all the other events do the top ten. If the mens polevault was top ten performances it would be all Bubka. Below are the top performances, as of June 2007, with the ten athletes linked:

Pos. Time Athlete Country Venua Date
1 12.88 +1.1 Liu Xiang   China Lausanne 11.07.2006
2 12.90 +1.1 Dominique Arnold   United States Lausanne 11.07.2006
3 12.91 +0.5 Colin Jackson   United Kingdom Stuttgart 20.08.1993
12.91 +0.3 Liu Xiang   China Athens 27.08.2004
4 12.92 -0.1 Roger Kingdom   United States Zürich 16.08.1989
4 12.92 +0.9 Allen Johnson   United States Atlanta 23.06.1996
12.92 +0.2 Allen Johnson   United States Bruxelles 23.08.1996
12.92 +1.5 Liu Xiang   China New York City 02.06.2007
6 12.93 -0.2 Renaldo Nehemiah   United States Zürich 19.08.1981
12.93 ±0.0 Allen Johnson   United States Athens 07.08.1997
12.93 -0.6 Liu Xiang   China Stuttgart 09.09.2006
7 12.94 +1.6 Jack Pierce   United States Atlanta 22.06.1996
12.95 +0.6 Allen Johnson   United States Atlanta 29.07.1996
8 12.95 +1.5 Terrence Trammell   United States New York City 02.06.2007
12.96 +0.4 Allen Johnson   United States Athens 17.09.2006
12.97A +2.0 Roger Kingdom   United States Sestriere 11.08.1988
12.97A -1.6 Colin Jackson   United Kingdom Sestriere 28.07.1993
12.97 -0.5 Allen Johnson   United States Stuttgart 13.07.1997
12.97 +1.5 Allen Johnson   United States Sacramento 23.07.2000
12.97 ±0.0 Allen Johnson   United States Saint-Denis 04.07.2003
9 12.97 +1.0 Ladji Doucouré   France Angers 15.07.2005
12.98 +1.5 Roger Kingdom   United States Seoul 26.09.1988
12.98 +0.2 Colin Jackson   United Kingdom Tokyo 15.09.1994
12.98 +0.2 Allen Johnson   United States Köln 18.08.1995
12.98 -0.3 Allen Johnson   United States Zürich 12.08.1998
10 12.98 +0.6 Mark Crear   United States Zagreb 05.07.1999

Consequently this would look like the following in the article:

Pos. Time Athlete Country Venua Date
1 12.88 +1.1 Liu Xiang   China Lausanne 11.07.2006
2 12.90 +1.1 Dominique Arnold   United States Lausanne 11.07.2006
3 12.91 +0.5 Colin Jackson   United Kingdom Stuttgart 20.08.1993
4 12.92 -0.1 Roger Kingdom   United States Zürich 16.08.1989
4 12.92 +0.9 Allen Johnson   United States Atlanta 23.06.1996
6 12.93 -0.2 Renaldo Nehemiah   United States Zürich 19.08.1981
7 12.94 +1.6 Jack Pierce   United States Atlanta 22.06.1996
8 12.95 +1.5 Terrence Trammell   United States New York City 02.06.2007
9 12.97 +1.0 Ladji Doucouré   France Angers 15.07.2005
10 12.98 +0.6 Mark Crear   United States Zagreb 05.07.1999

I will place this latter table into the article. David D. (Talk) 04:28, 7 June 2007 (UTC)Reply


Progression of world record. edit

I have removed Dominique Arnold from the progression of the world record as even though he has the second fastest time it was never the world record as it was set in the same race as Liu Xiang--Greatestrowerever (talk) 15:59, 22 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Top 25 times update edit

Sasha Zhoya ran a personal best in the 110m hurdles of 12.87s with legal wind in July 2019. https://www.iaaf.org/athletes/australia/sasha-zhoya-316935 The table of the top 25 times should be updated to reflect this. Poemisaglock (talk) 02:05, 18 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

That mark is a world youth best. From that I would assume it was over 39" (.99m) hurdles. Obviously a good time, but it is not over the the open divisions hurdle height and not comparable. Trackinfo (talk) 02:41, 18 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
