| + | Short list, and notation. | 
| + | |
| + | ## IPC Classification Code | 
| + | * Current [IPC Athlete Classification Code and International Standards](https://www.paralympic.org/classification-code). | 
| + | * Code Review [process and draft](https://www.paralympic.org/classification-code-review). | 
| + | |
| + | ## World Para Swimming [WPS] | 
| + | * Documents & Forms (competition resources) - an extensive list [available here](https://www.paralympic.org/swimming/documents). | 
| + | * Rule book [available here](https://www.paralympic.org/swimming/rules). | 
| + | * [Homepage](https://www.paralympic.org/swimming). | 
| + | * A note regarding [rankings](https://www.paralympic.org/swimming) (found under RESULTS): | 
| + | * The "Ranking Type" has several valuable options: | 
| + | 1. World Rankings: includes only those licensed athletes with a Status other than New | 
| + | 2. Annual Recorded Bests: includes all licensed athletes regardless of Status | 
| + | 3. Minimum Qualification Standard: includes performances eligible for the identified Championship | 
| + | * The warning about user defined periods (custom date ranges) is to be heeded. Commonly these rankings will include results with obvious typo/clerical errors and periods crossing calendar years usually return values for one year only |

| + | ## Swimming Canada | 
| + | A recently unveiled website redesign has put all of the para swimming information (including classification) under the "High Performance" dropdown menu. |
