Talk:High jump

message: It's time to clean up the mess that the National Records sections are. Marks set indoors are NOT eligible for National Records, which are determined by the respective national athletic committees. Any check on individual national pages shows that national records are set outdoors. Here is an example, the German records, as maintained by that nation's athletics federation.  The men's record there is 2.37, not the 2.42 indoor mark listed on this page. The women's record is 2.06, but not according to wikipedia, which apparently knows better than the German federation - it lists the indoor mark of 2.07 as the "national record."
How about the British men's record? According to the British national records page, it is 2.37. Wikipedia? Another ineligible indoor mark is listed as the "national record" - 2.38. Here is the link to the British page: . Swedish women? On their page, the record is 2.06. Here, it's 2.08.  
I've brought this up before, and if no action is taken to clear up this mess, I propose we delete the sections until it is corrected.
This seems to stem from some editors conflating the World Athletics decision to allow marks set indoors to stand as World Records if all other criteria are met for regular records set outdoors. This does NOT mean individual nations now consider marks set indoors as eligible for national records! Canada Jack (talk) 00:00, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

The height of the athletes is not officially measured and therefore cannot be verified. The sources do not meet the Wikipedia standard, the first one is an archived copy of an athletics forum, the second a private website that has not been updated since July 2014.

Talk:Missionary Church

message: This assertion is dubious, especially in recent years as the denomination has moved towards more involvement in government and influencing government. Further, the visit of President Bush to Bethel College, and Bethel College's endorsement of the president's policies argue strongly against the idea of the denomination returning to its Mennonite Roots. As a member of the Missionary Church within a large and strong Mennonite community in Indiana, I continually witness the hierachy and congregations of the Missionary Church question the authenticity of Mennonite Christian witness. I hope someone from the Mennonite and Missionary Church communities would continue the comment on this.66.249.230.212 21:56, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The smaller group of Dominionists do not have time to worry about a CNA due to the impending Rapture.
The larger group of Dominionists self-select into that "larger group" on the basis of positive support simply for the idea of a Christian Nation Amendment to the US Constitution.  Obviously, they do not believe the Rapture will occur as quickly as does the mentioned smaller group.  The larger group prefers to speak softly about the CNA until they become recognized as a significant force in American life.  All in the larger group agree that The Devil, due to his own agenda, tries everyday to prevent this from happening.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.14.243.123 (talk) 16:11, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

message: I'm not doing a formal move request yet, but I think this article is better located at Little Joe (electric locomotive), where it was from 2006–2012. The Milwaukee Road did use the EF-4 and EP-4 designations for its locomotives, but that designation is not (so far as I can tell) ever used to describe the locomotives on the South Shore or the Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro. The South Shore called them the 800-class, but secondary literature also employs the "Little Joe" moniker. Secondary literature on the Milwaukee Road calls them the "Little Joe" as well in lieu of the formal designation. General works use "Little Joe" to refer to the class collectively. The use of the general term makes sense here. Mackensen (talk) 12:52, 5 May 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Russia defaulted on its domestic short-term government bond 

message: Choudhry (2005) states: 
“Government bond markets (…) have experienced low liquidity and supply constraints, leading to inverted curves, causing some commentators to suggest that the government yields have traded below the true risk-free level.”
“[The] government curve may on occasion be overvalued, whereas the swap curve can be regarded as lying at fair value.”
“[The] only plausible alternative to the government yield curve in the euro and sterling market appears to be the interest rate swap.”
“The swap market, however, is now very large and liquid, and does not suffer from illiquidity, even out to long-dated maturities. There are also no supply constraints in the swap market, unlike for (say) long-dated gilts or Treasuries.”
Feldhutter and Lando (2007) state:
“…the riskless rate is better proxied by the swap rate than the Treasury rate for all maturities.”
Hull, Predescu, and White (2004) estimate a risk-free rate for the US market using swap rates and CDS premiums 
The 5Y Treasury yield lies 60 bps below the ‘true’ risk-free rate
The 5Y ‘true’ risk-free rate is on average around 10 bps less than the swap rate  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.28.42.142 (talk) 15:44, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
