=About= Currently editing the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games wikipedia page. This is part of a UQ driven HIST3002 trial assignment piece - all pages are edited with a partner. All information added is referenced from online, book or journal article sources. This is my first time editing a wikipedia page (I have no experience in coding). Any data that clashes with the IPC historical statistics and information is changed to meet their guidelines. Hoping to update this page with respect to the games and its athletes as well as adding as much accurate and notable history as possible. This trial in editing is due to end on October 26th 2015, we wish to increase the standard across a number of Paralympic Games pages.

=Sydney 2000 Summer Paralympic Games= To anyone who has edited the page or knows about the games, I have made a change from 19 sports to 18. This is due to the IPC stating there are 18 sports. The confusion lies in the sport basketball, to which there is basketball (ID) and wheelchair basketball. The IPC acknowledge basketball as a sport and it is then split by disability criteria. The change was not made to disrespect any athlete but to bring the information on the page in line with statistics from the governing body.
