Hi Kenhia! Good question! When timed to the .01 of a second, the time was 9.79 for both runners. However when they look to the .001 of a second, the times were 9.784 and 9.789. The officially recorded time for both runners will be 9.79 (which is why the medal table uses this time), however the text section uses the time to that .001 of a second because it is explaining the tie break! Because of this, no edit is needed. Hope this helps, feel free to message my talk page with any questions! Thanks, Wibbit23 (talk) 02:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
His being a sprinter with asthma is worth a mention, at the very least. Readers of Wikipedia should be allowed to see the full picture of a person, not just their accomplishments. The article already mentions depression in passing, the rest complete who he is. If he has openly stated that he has these things (commonly viewed as impediments), it is not self-serving to show people who have asthma, and the rest of the list that an athlete is able to succeed despite having experienced them. The wording of the request can be edited, of course. KnightOnTheHorizon (talk) 18:40, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
lots of elite athletes "have" asthma, this is totally unremarkable. in 2016, 70% of top british swimmers had asthma. A third of the team sky cycling team had it. It 100% is a self-serving, boastful and specious claim. Nonissue (talk) 01:43, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the better source needed for the OLY post-nominals. The source is of Noah's twitter page where he uses the name "Noah Lyles, OLY." The WOA website responsible for giving the OLY post nominals states: "OLY can be used on official documentation, CVs, business cards, social media. In fact anywhere an Olympian would use their name, in the same way a university graduate may use PhD." Because this is Noah's official, verified twitter account, we can conclude that this is a valid source of an athlete using the OLY post nominals as perscribed by WOA.
I agree there is a issue on olympic pages where people are using OLY for athletes that have not publicly used the OLY post nominals, however it is clear in this instance Noah Lyles is publicly using OLY. Feel free to message me on my talk page. Thanks,Wibbit23 (talk) 02:50, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There should be at least a section where the critisism of Lyles calling the NBA champions the world champions is mentioned since this embarked a long-lasting discussion in both regular and social media and between pundits, commentators, spectators and players who really can be considered the world champion and who not. The two positions being (the broadly "American view") that NBA champions, being among the best foreign and American players in the world, can call themselves world champion, and (the broadly "European" or "world" view) that all nations of the world must be able to participate in order to the winner calling themselves world champion/that you can't be the world champion of a national association. Also the discussion was a great booster of Lyles' popularity (or infamy, depending on how you see it). SdHb (talk) 14:06, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
