A list of Olympic records in swimming already exists on the Swimming at the Summer Olympics which is more up to date and technically correct. It is also the page linked to from the Records in swimming template. I suggest nominating this page for deletion. Yboy83 (talk) 17:27, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

[edit]

Both pages duplicate the same information. I propose one of the following:

Whichever option, references for all results should to be found. Yboy83 (talk) 10:21, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My personal preference would be the second option. I'm fine renaming it for consistency, but it seems substantial enough to deserve its own page. Erusdruidum (talk) 22:37, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've been bold and have made the merger. Still to do:
  • Check data

Disorganised Artical

[edit]

The table is very disorganised. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.242.189.200 (talk) 11:04, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the original format was just fine, this "standardised format" you're talking about with "meet" etc? What's that all about? The article is now a complete mess. Please practice edits in a sandbox rather than in the mainspace. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:31, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It would be nice to have a column showing the previous record time.

Preface to the table

[edit]

In the preface to the table, it states: Statistics are correct as of the end of the 2020 Olympics. However, the table contains 2024 Olympics records. 32.209.69.24 (talk) 05:31, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
