*The category has now 50+ entries for articles where the records are a defning characteristic (mentioned in the lead and/or with a separate section). I stopped adding further articles after this first batch, as this sufficiently shows that it is for many subjects on Wikipedia a defining characteristic as required for a category, and that there is no reason to delete this category.

:* It would not surprise me if almost every world record is in the Guiness book. Size of the category is not the point though, the point is that it is about world records, not about a book. [[User:Marcocapelle|Marcocapelle]] ([[User talk:Marcocapelle|talk]]) 01:08, 21 April 2026 (UTC) |

:*:The articles seem to disagree, they all specify that it´s about the Guinness record and not e.g the [[Limca Book of Records]],nor about more reliably scientifically checked records. It´s records as claimed by Guinness, and in many cases done specifically to enter that book. [[User:Fram|Fram]] ([[User talk:Fram|talk]]) 05:01, 21 April 2026 (UTC) |
