Explanation

I looked at the Sierra Leone one and realised while I had three paragraphs, they were very short. I felt I should combine two of them and add something more substantial. Sadly, not much out there about them. (Hopefully, as things progress, I can get pictures.) Anyway, hence the inclusion of Liberia --LauraHale (talk) 08:31, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Review of revision 1597808 [Passed]

Revision 1597808 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 14:00, 25 August 2012 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Verifying the race dates took up most of the review time and effort. Pamphlet says men's 200m T46 is Saturday and Sunday; also, Saturday is the third day of competition, so compared pamphlet to paralympics website in hopes of clarification. Unfortunately, website is inconsistent with pamphlet, stating men's 200m T46 is Friday and Sunday. Went with pamphlet as it has more detailed info, and hedged by adding word "scheduled" for emphasis. The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.
