Talk:Athletics at the 1992 Summer Olympics – Women's 100 metres hurdles

Degrading article

edit

This article is extremely degrading to the athletes that actually won medals for this event. It comprises of 5-6 lines of text mainly talking about the athlete that came in 5th, even going as far as informing us about her later endeavours and presenting the winning athlete as if having won by chance ("In seemingly an instant, Voula Patoulidou became the gold medalist"). Avoiding stumbling on the hurdles is an essential skill in this event, it's not something to lament or regret upon, as if one who doesn't is unlucky.

I will at least remove the last line, since it has nothing to do with the event, and try to remove any degrading or condescending comments, but I still propose a revision of the content focusing more towards the actual event and its winners. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.246.2.199 (talk) 18:59, 5 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Gail Devers definitely wasn't the favorite, unless you're talking about the final. Lyudmila Narozhilenko was the heavy favorite at the start of the Games, until she injured herself and had to withdraw from the semifinals. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gmak76 (talkcontribs) 17:10, 4 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
