Talk:Athletics at the 1988 Summer Olympics

Untitled
I noticed that all the distances are in feet and inches. Shouldn't the metric be included too?

Cleanup
The results need to be given in the original form (metric in this case) conversions should be given in parenthesis. Also from WP:MOS the conversions should read 55 ft not 55'. Discordance 17:37, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Use standard abbreviations when using symbols. For example, metre is m, kilogram is kg, inch is in (not " or ″), foot is ft (not ' or ′).

Cleanup completed
I have looked up the original metric results elsewhere and entered them as metres in the results table. Normally I would not remove the previous units, but as the US/Imperial units were approximate conversions, I felt that they served no real purpose and only made the page look more cluttered and complicated. Also, as this article is about results, it is the figures that matter, not the reader's ability to comprehend the scale of the measurements. Let me know if anyone has a problem with this.
