Signing up to review this article. |'ve had a quick look through and my initial impressions are that it seems quite good, though perhaps a little heavy on quotations – but more to come on this and other things later in the actual review, after I've more thorough look through (hopefully (Sorry that I'm so late with this review.) Since this is A-class I'm going to skip most of the minor style nitpicks which can be fixed during (or before) a FA nomination. Other issues: Overall, there are a lot of statistics tables throughout the article – have you considered making the Australia stats for each game collapsible, and collapsed by default? This might improve the readability of the article while retaining the relevant stats for those who are interested.
The article is looking pretty good otherwise. - Evad37 [talk] 02:01, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

Review by AustralianRupert
editSupport: G'day, sports articles aren't my forte, but I had a look anyway. I believe that this is probably up to snuff for an A-class, and have the following comments/suggestions:
- The article is well referenced using a consistent style, it appears to have adequate coverage, and is illustrated with appropriate images.
- "The first stage of the Paralympic completion was the group stage..." (should "completion" be "competition"?)
- Yes. Corrected. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:21, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- "quarter–time break" (this should probably be a hyphen, not an endash)
- Removed the endash
- "Heidelberg Leader" should probably be in italics in the References
- Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:21, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- inconsistent presentation "del Toso" v. "Delt Toso"
- It should be "Del Toso". Corrected.
- some terms/links are probably overlinked. For instance, multiple mentions of the same player in the summary sections, e.g. " Pts: Estrada Bernal 11, Rebs: Estrada Bernal 4, Asts: Estrada Bernal 16 "
- Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:21, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- "|author=aa/jjs " --> is this correct?
- Yes. Removed. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:21, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for your review! Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:21, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
Review by Anotherclown
editSupport - I've no idea about this topic but in the interests in trying to get WP:AUS A class off the ground I'll chime in:
- Overall this article looks in very good shape to me and I'd say it meets the A class criteria.
- Is there a missing word here: "The official announcement of the membership of Paralympic team...", i.e. should it be "The official announcement of the membership of the Paralympic team..."?
- Yes. Well spotted. I have corrected it. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:07, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
- "Crispin made only 3 out of 10 shots, and Merritt only 4 out of 16." I assuming these figures are for the whole game? I had to read it a few times because it sounded like it was just for the fourth quarter (which wouldn't make sense given AS only scored two points in the fourth quarter). Possibly clarify? Anotherclown (talk) 10:59, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah, for the whole game. I've clarified the point. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:07, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for your review. Much appreciated. Hawkeye7 (talk) 12:07, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
Note: This article needs an image review, and a source review for formatting/reliability - Evad37 [talk] 04:44, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
Review by Dan arndt
editSupport however the following issues need to be addressed:
- Ref 2 - link to Heidelberg Leader
- Ref 6 - dead link
- Ref 11 - link to The Sun rather than sun.uk.com
- Ref 12 - the article's author is Yves Eggleston : 23 December 2011
- Ref 26 - the article's author is Frederic J. Brown
- Ref 28 - this links to a wikinews article not Paralympic News Service
- Ref 49 - publisher is Australian Paralympic Committee
- Ref 53 - publication date is 7 September 2012
- Ref 55 - publication date is 10 April 2013
- Ref 56 - publication date is 31 May 2013
- In the references the publisher only needs to be linked once (i.e. Australian Paralympic Committee is link in Ref 3, 13 & 17.. and Basketball Australia is also linked numerous times)
I hope that helps. Dan arndt (talk) 06:32, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for your review! Much appreciated. I have made all the changes suggested. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:46, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Hawkeye7 you missed one Ref 1 & 4 both link to Basketball Australia. Dan arndt (talk) 12:22, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Unlinked in ref 4. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:10, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
- Hawkeye7 you missed one Ref 1 & 4 both link to Basketball Australia. Dan arndt (talk) 12:22, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

- Various "kit" images, used in the infobox, all PD.

In short, no serious problems. I would recommend converting that PNG to a JPEG or other format more suitable for photographic images. I also think that the images are not evenly distributed throughout the article, and the bottom of the article looks a little bare compared to the top half, although I also realise that you're limited to working with what is available to you. Lankiveil (speak to me) 10:08, 15 September 2015 (UTC).
- Thanks for your review! The frustration here is that I have plenty of images but... I cannot use them, because they are under a non-commercial licence. Hawkeye7 (talk) 10:38, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
- I understand the frustration! Just to be clear, there's nothing here that in my opinion should stand in the way of this article's promotion. Lankiveil (speak to me) 10:52, 15 September 2015 (UTC).
