Olympics?

Is there a record of 15mRs partaking in the 1908 Olympics or should the categorization be removed?

Ambiguity in equation; lack of source

Is the equation supposed to read $15={\frac {LWL+B+{\frac {1}{3}}G+3d+{\frac {1}{3}}{\sqrt {S}}-F}{2}}$

or

$15={\frac {LWL+B+{\frac {1}{3G}}+3d+{\frac {1}{3{\sqrt {S}}}}-F}{2}}$

? I am assuming the former since otherwise the 15 cannot be said to be in metres. Without access to a source (which is a problem in itself) I cannot correct it. 122.59.249.222 (talk) 11:49, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Greetings. You assume correctly, the former is what is meant here on the page regarding the first the International Rule. I donot have my sources to hand but I expect it to be in Collier and Charles, already quoted. I will confirm within week. signed:Donan Raven (talk) 12:39, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for checking. I've edited the fractions on the page. A citation can be added once you get one. 122.59.249.222 (talk) 11:38, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
