Yelena Isinbayeva, who does pole vault, is listed as track and field, while Sergey Bubka is listed as pole vault. They should both be list under the same sport name for consistency. I'm changing Bubka to track and field since there are other athletes under track and field. -- Scuac ( talk) 00:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
The article states that the awards were founded by Daimler, among others, in 1999. This links to a disambiguation page. I considered correcting this to Daimler AG, but then I saw that this was the name used after the demerger in 2007. So should the founding patron be DaimlerChrysler AG, which was the company formed by the merger of Daimler-Benz and Chrysler in 1998? Coyets ( talk) 10:35, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
Athletes receive awards for achievements in the previous year. For example, Usain Bolt won the 2009 award Sportsman of the Year for success in 2008. We're supposed to write that Bolt was Sportsman of the Year for 2008 and 2009. And all the other years, we should reduce by one. -- Aca Srbin ( talk) 18:59, 9 January 2011 (CET)
Where is an article about the "World Sports Awards of the Century" from 1999 in Vienna, Austria? With Pele, Muhammad Ali, etc etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.116.242.76 ( talk) 17:04, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
We need some uniformity in how the four rescinded awards are shown. These are Armstrong (Sportsman 2003) and (Comeback 2000), Connor (Disabled 2004) and Jones (Sportswoman 2000) "Rescinded" is the term that is used and if you click on the winner on the Laureus page you get "Award rescinded after the sporting successes on which the Laureus World Sports Academy voted have been revoked by the relevant sport governing body."
How about a standard of striking through the winner's name and the one foot note for all cases with Laureus's preferred phrasing. We can choose whether "Rescinded" appears next to the name too.-- Peter cohen ( talk) 01:40, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

The World Sports Awards of the Century in Vienna were the award first was presented, afterwards the Laureus World Sports Awards came. So why there is no mention about it?

Hi TRM,
According to the section Best Sporting Moment, the 2018 award was won by the Iowa Hawkeyes football team. However, the table in the section Winners by year says that the winner is Associacao Chapecoense de Futebol. They contradict each other.
