Review comments

This is one of several "LW" articles which I'm reviewing at once, including recently adding 2 in response to editor request. One concern (clarification of defining body vs. classification bodies, and related terminology) runs across all of them, and we discussed at the LW3 review. IMO tweaks that I made here resolved this.

A few times later in the article the bi-athlon / rifle shooting aspect is mentioned making me realize / think that such is a part of this, but it doesn't seem to be covered in the article. Should it be? North8000 (talk) 12:40, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

• The biathlon is a Nordic skiing event. Hawkeye7 (talk) 19:03, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

I don't understand. North8000 (talk) 13:26, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

In para-Nordic skiing, which includes the cross-country and biathlon events, this classification is grouped with other standing classes. Hawkeye7 (talk) 19:00, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

Here's what I was trying to ask about. Items later in the article indicate that this includes bi-athlons which are events what include skiing and shooting. There is good coverage of the skiing portion (equipment used, how they go about doing it etc.) but there seems to be no coverage of the shooting portion except a quick mention of rules. So on the face of it one might say that that part is missing from the article. And so I was trying to start a discussion (and get your thoughts) on whether or not that is the case; i.e. whether or not the article needs more coverage of that aspect in order to meet the criteria for full coverage of the topic. Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 21:11, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

Added a bit about Biathlon shooting technique and equipment. Hawkeye7 (talk) 19:06, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

You may want to consider expansion of the title at a later date. North8000 (talk) 13:06, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
