unexplained abbreviations
(h), CR, etc. need to be explained. Kdammers (talk) 04:58, 30 August 2023 (UTC)


 * They are athletics abbreviations (just like PB, SB, NR, NU20R, EU20L) and should link to another page that explains what they stand for. When someone hovers over them with their mouse or cursor, it will tell what they mean. ViveLaSuisse (talk) 00:17, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hovering over the abbreviations does not give full explanations -- at least not on my computer. 'SB' only gives "Bests" as an explanation.  I ran track for over ten years, and I never heard of SB then and don't know what it means -- ?stadium best (seems strange, but it's all I can think of); CR  (hovering says "Records") -- current record?/course record?  EU20L (hovering just gives "Abbreviations" but with no abbreviation) -- European under 20 L? Kdammers (talk) 05:13, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh, I had no idea it did that. I included a key above the table. Let me know if that helps any or it still needs to be changed. Thanks! ViveLaSuisse (talk) 08:04, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
 * It still is inadequate. For example, for PB, I had to open the link and then either scroll down or do an "F" (find) search.  For EU20L, there was no explanation.  We can't expect people to decipher this to Europe/under 20 [years of age] / Leading [which many people will also not know ] (I guess that's what EU20L is.).

 * What do you mean? PB, SB, EU20L, etc... were in the key with explanations above the table of Caune's international competitions. I suppose that you are referring to the other page of athletics abbreviations, but that is different from this article.
 * I am not sure who controls the abbreviations on that page, but maybe it just needs to be updated with the newer abbreviations that are taken into account nowadays for junior competitors. Personally, I found the abbreviations kind of easy to understand and could figure out some of the rest even when they were not explicitly listed out on the page.

 * Now I see them above the table. Thanks. Kdammers (talk) 02:30, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
 * (h) is not listed on the page, but that is used to signify what position she finished in during the preliminary heats.
 * Similarly, (sf) is used to indicate someone's ranking in the semi-finals. ViveLaSuisse (talk) 00:53, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Pronunciation
Her family name is pronounced with an initial "S" sound. Kdammers (talk) 19:15, 30 August 2023 (UTC)


 * You could add the correct name pronunciation to the page, if you want. You are free and more than welcome to do so. I think that would help be helpful. ViveLaSuisse (talk) 00:21, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
