Thanks to Tom Casacky, who pointed out that I had not updated the RUS and
USA records from the results of the world indoor championships, and to
Michel Saint-Raymond, who noted that the year for the Swiss record should be
2004, not 2003. I see, also, that I should have included Svetlana
Makarevich's tying the Belarus record. It has been my usual practice to
include the tying of a record by a second athlete, but not repetitions by
the same vaulter.
With these corrections, the list would be:
