[edit] Records indoor vs. outdoor

The records 4,83 (Donetsk, Feb 15, 2004), 4,85 (Athens, Feb 20, 2004) and 4,86 (Budapest, Mar 06, 2004) were not only valid as indoor world records, but were also valid as (outdoor) world records. This is due to IAAF regulation 260.6.a according to which "world records (as opposed to indoor world records) can be set at a facility 'with or without' a roof". This applies for results starting from year 2000. Therefore the term "outdoor world record" is somewhat misleading as the record can be achieved indoors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kesal (talk • contribs) 2 November 2006

The present table, indicating records with (I) or (O) is useful, insofar as it indicates the environment in which the record was obtained, so regardless of the applicability of indoor records to outdoors after 1999, it is useful to preserve the distinction. --Mareklug ^talk 08:10, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Isinbayeva vs Isinbaeva

Her official site spells it without a y and IAAF is now spelling it without a y in their english reports. We should probably move article to Yelena Isinbaeva as it appears to be the correct English spelling. David D. (Talk) 16:12, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
