Medals table

edit

There seems to be something wrong with the medals table. For example some of the accomplishments listed under World Championships link in fact to European Championships and also the link titles seem to be wrong.

The article claims for example that in 2000 the WCH was held in Honolulu but in fact no World Championships were held that year. The link leads to European LC Championships 2000 which were held in Helsinki. Dijk did in deed win a medal in that competition. But nonetheless someone should check the whole table. --Kesal 16:42, 22 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

After having done some research, I found that separate Open Water Championships were held at least on 2000 in Honolulu and 2004 in Dubai (http://melbourne2007.com.au/site/sections/sports/openwater_history.html). But still someone should check the links and the sorting of the table. --Kesal 17:36, 22 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
In 2008, the article FINA World Open Water Swimming Championships has been made, which addresses this issue. Gap9551 (talk) 13:44, 28 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
