Requested articles (Sports)
Requested articles (Association football)

Assess : newly added and existing articles, maybe nominate some good B-class articles for GA; independently assess some as A-class, regardless of GA status.
Cleanup :
* Sport governing body (this should-be-major article is in a shameful state)
* Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.)
* Standardize Category:American college sports infobox templates to use same font size and spacing.
* Sport in the United Kingdom - the Popularity section is incorrect and unsourced. Reliable data is required.

Photo Copyright

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

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.

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

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]
