+ | 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. |
