Sighted Guides?

I have asked a question at 2014 Winter Paralympics which also covers this page - I was unsure about the naming of sighted guides as competitors/athletes, as I have noticed it is not consistent between different pages. Please contribute to this discussion at 2014 Winter Paralympics, not here. 97rob (talk) 23:40, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is broad in its coverage.

It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Taking a look at it, it seems rather good but there are a few things that I feel need correcting before this can be a GA.

"three gold, three silver and one bronze" Should really be pluralised or have medals after them. Have to consider that some reader may not follow sports and has no idea what that means.
- Y Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Mitchell Gourley and Cameron Rahles-Rahbula won gold medals" for whom?
- Y Australia. Added. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Rahles-Rahbula suffered a knee injury and will miss his opening races, but will compete in his pet event the slalom and the giant slalom." Needs rewording, appears to indicate future tense instead of past tense.
- Y Corrected. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Link Chef de Mission at first mention
- Y Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The team support section needs an overhaul. It would be better to have them listed in a table or in bullet format and not in the way it is now.
- Y Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The sources are good and the pictures are licenced correctly. Fix the issues here and I'll take another look. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 08:29, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

All points addressed. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:20, 7 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Indeed, A new GA is made. 09:38, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
