Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain competitive diving, relay events, scoring, history and safety from aquatics federation sources, describe the named forms and flag the unverified alias, route injury emergencies, and distinguish diving from scuba or free diving, cliff diving as recreation, swimming and the registry parent competitive swimming.

The sport of jumping or falling into water from a platform or springboard, usually while performing acrobatic movements such as somersaults and twists, judged on execution and difficulty, contested at the Olympic Games since 1904 in men s and women s events from the 3 metre springboard and 10 metre platform, with synchronised events added in 2000 and high diving from much greater heights at World Aquatics Championships; related forms the registry aliases name include acrobatic diving, the Norwegian dods or death diving, a flat-landing style with its own competitions, plunge diving for distance, and Isander, which could not be verified. The registry files diving under competitive swimming, which is a separate aquatic discipline. Diving into shallow or unknown water causes serious spinal injuries.

What it is for: Competitive and recreational aquatic sport.

It can be explain events and scoring; relay history; describe named forms; relay safety and route injuries.

  • Should the registry parent competitive swimming be revised?
