Bill Sefton[edit]

  • ... that when Bill Sefton raised the pole vault world record to 4.54 m (14 ft 11 in), he couldn't try to improve it further as the uprights didn't go any higher?

The article is long enough (3333 characters) and new (created March 27). There are no problematic external links or disambiguation links. The article is well written and well referenced, with no close paraphrasing issues.The hook fact is supported by two inline citations. The hook is interesting and accurately reflects the article content. HazelAB (talk) 12:46, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
