Hi! Will get to this soon. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 07:17, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Sainsf, just as a heads up if case you were unaware of it and had questions over the use of tables etc. the style used in this article follows that set out in WP:OLYMOSNAT. Thanks - Basement12 (T.C) 09:52, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, I find no trouble with the formatting. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 12:40, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Nice work. Here are my comments:

• In the lead, does "at the" need bold?
  • No, I have removed the bolding per MOS:BOLDTITLE.
• The source(s) for the table should be explicitly mentioned, ensure that each point is sourced.
  • All event results are sourced from https://www.paralympic.org/results/historical by performing a database query. It is not possible to directly reference each individual result.
    • It should be clarified that all the entries in these tables is based on information from this database. It is really important else others may litter it with citation needed tags. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 18:25, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
      • @Sainsf: I hoped the general citation I added at the top of the reference section would be sufficient? It has been in the past for previous GA's on the Olympics where an Olympic Report was referenced. If you have a suggestion on how to clarify things then I'm open to suggestions (perhaps a hidden note at the top of each section with the IPC link included?) - Basement12 (T.C) 00:29, 5 May 2016 (UTC) The link is this one by the way - Basement12 (T.C) 00:31, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
        • Thanks, that is clearer. If this style has been accepted in GAs before, then there should be no issue here either. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 05:47, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

• I would recommend bullet list style in all the "management" sections, it would be easier to read and more orderly.  Done
• Source(s) for these?

• South Africa's first medal came from du Toit winning gold in the women's 100 m butterfly S9.  Done
• The management teams  Done
• The Equestrian section

Alright, that is the list. Sainsf <^>_{Feel at home} 18:25, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

I have posted replies directly after the points above. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:11, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
