Status: Passed on January 17, 2019
Background
This proposal is based on Discussion #18
Proposal
OLD RULE:
1.1 IUF WORLD RECORD
An IUF (International Unicycling Federation) world record is a unicycle world record recognised by the IUF as the best ever performance by a male and female in a recognised unicycling category, set in accordance with IUF World Record Guidelines.
NEW RULE
1.1 WHAT IS AN IUF WORLD RECORD
An IUF (International Unicycling Federation) world record is a unicycle world record recognised by the IUF as the best ever performance by a male or female in a recognised unicycling category, set in accordance with IUF World Record Guidelines.
The right to grant an IUF World Record lies solely with the IUF, and is subject to their discretion. In case an IUF World Record is refused, the IUF will state its reason(s) for doing so.
(note that proposal 1 will most likely add another paragraph to this text, about equalling an IUF World Record.)
Body
This proposal is based on Discussion #18.
Summary of changes:
(1) The title is clearer.
(2) In the first sentence "male and female" has been changed to "male or female".
(3) The last sentence of 1.3 has been moved to this section 1.1, while changing:
(a) the word "Retrospective" has been deleted;
(b) the requirement to fulfill the WR Guidelines is removed because this was a duplicate.
(4) The IUF can be held accountable if they refuse a World Record.
