Comments
 * "disability sport classification for blind sport" can we remove one of the "sport"s?
 * It is not used outside of sport, so not entirely certain. --LauraHale (talk) 11:40, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I meant something along the lines of "disability classification for blind sport"? The Rambling Man (talk) 13:25, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
 * My misunderstanding. Fixed. --LauraHale (talk) 20:35, 10 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Worth a link to visual acuity.
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:40, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * There's a specific link for blind judo (redirects to Paralympic judo) and you could link Paralympic association football instead of just regular 5-a-side football.
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "classification is LTA-B3. athletics where the comparative" probably should be a comma.
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Is there a reason our IBSA article calls it "International Blind Sports Federation"?
 * Fixed link. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "This classification was first..." reinfroce subject, i.e. "The B3 classification was first..."
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "functional and evidence based" -> "functional- and evidence-based".
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "though the B3 class is comparable to the IBSA created class" I thought the B3 was the class created by the IBSA?
 * Clarified the wording.--LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Could link clapstick.
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "whereas cycling and skiing do require a guide." -> "...skiing require one."
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 11:48, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Could link visual field.
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "The International Blind Sports Association (IBSA) defines..." and "The International Paralympic Committee" both of these have already been abbreviated in the preceding section, so use the abbreviations.
 * Not sure. Fixed link so it was not to a redirect. --LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "This classification has parallels in other sports. For adaptive rowing, the comparable classification is LTA-B3.[10] For athletics, the class is T13.[11][12] The B3 equivalent for swimming is S13.[5]" merge that into the previous paragraph and reinforce "The B3 classification has parallels..."
 * Done. --LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "During the actual evaluation" no need for "actual".
 * Removed. --LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * In general, there seems to be a lot repeated in this section from the lead, so perhaps trim the lead down a little.
 * Trimmed. --LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Define and link FINA before using the abbreviation.
 * Fixed.--LauraHale (talk) 12:29, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * 2008 Summer Paralympics is overlinked.
 * Fixed. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Image caption does not need a full stop.
 * Fixed. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "recognised" vs "meter" vs "utilized " - which variant of English is being used in this article?
 * Changed to American. My bad.  I generally do UK/Aussie but obviously not paying as much attention as I should. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "This classification traces its history"... "The B3 classification..."
 * Fixed. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * "When a cyclist is looking for a guide, they are encouraged to find one with a pace similar to their own" seems like common sense to me. Does it need to be reported here?
 * Yes, I think so because it is a point that comes up in literature about what is desirable for looking for in guides and then how you improve from there. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * The portal graphic is squashing all the references up, could it be placed elsewhere?
 * Not sure. No see alsos and no external links where they might otherwise be placed.  Can remove. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Check reference titles for correct use of WP:DASH i.e. date ranges etc should use an en-dash, not a hyphen.
 * Confused because my knowledge of dashes and hyphen usage is non-existent. --LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Also, references which are PDF usually have.
 * Fixed.LauraHale (talk) 13:00, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Be consistent with author names in the refs, e.g. is it First Name Surname or Surname, First Name?
