Talk:List of world best times in rowing

message: This article could be improved with some explanation of the abbreviations, so that Wikipedia readers who are not experts on rowing could tell what size of crew was rowing in the different lines of data. LM4? LM8x????
Please provide a table to explain. Thanks Edison 17:49, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

message: When adding this morning's new world best for M4x I notice that there is a column for "split", and the description suggests it is intended to be the 2000m time divided by 4.  What value does that add to the article?  I would feel inclined to delete that column unless there are strong views in favour of retaining it.

message: The time for the Mens 8 is incorrect, i watched the race and it is not the right race or the time is wrong, the winners of the world cup 2 2012 was Germany with 5:27 so someone might want to find the correct world record  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patricthagod (talk • contribs) 20:49, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

message: Article title: "List of world records in rowing"
First sentence: "In rowing there are not world records due to the huge variability that weather conditions can have on times."
It seems the article title tells a story that is different from the article's prose. Wouldn't List of world best times in rowing be a more appropriate title? Pinging Harper J. Cole, with whom I've just had a chat about this topic. Schwede66 00:42, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Consider the above page and its various subcategories. I think these data tables would be a great idea to include—either truncated or as a whole. For instance, the current Wiki has the 24-hour distance record for on-water 8s but individual (which is on this page) indoor is not covered. Thoughts?
