  Overall a good lookng article but a few changes are needed before it can make GA status:

• Can we get a source for NZ's Paralympic streak in the lead?

• Sourced in the background section, per WP:LEAD there aren't supposed to be citations in the lead. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Likewise one for the Slalom win and the first sentence of the Background section

• Same for here, it is sourced lower in in the article when discussed. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Shouldn't it be "the Chef de Mission"?

• Yep, right, fixed. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• The Disability criteria sentence is far too long and should be broken up

• Done. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• The sentence referring to Hall's Super G needs punctuation

• I'm not seeing what punctuation is needed in"In the Men's Super-G he did not finish the single-run race." Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Is there really a need to link the IPC in each source? To me that appears to be WP:OLINK.

• MOS:REPEATLINK seems to allow it in footnotes. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Source 8, BBC Online shouldn't be in italics as it isn't a published source

• Fixed. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Sources 10 and 14, Why are the surnames in all capital letters? I would say that would go against MOS:CAPS

• Fixed. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Sources 13 and 19, do you have any more information for describing that source? An ISBN or ISSN number? I would feel better if there were more in the reference (publisher, date, maybe a quote etc.)

• See Ref 3, that's the media handbook I'm citing. For clarity, I've added the full citation every time. Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

All in all @Courcelles:, to me it just needs a little more work and it will be ready. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 08:50, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• @The C of E: Responses inline, thanks for the review! Courcelles (talk) 11:29, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

• Excellent, All passed now for GA. Well done @Courcelles:. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 11:55, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
