Wikipedia translation of the week: 2024-34

The winner this Translation of the week is

en:B1 (classification)

Please be bold and help translate this article!

---

B1 is a medical-based Paralympic classification for blind sport. Athletes in this classification are totally or almost totally blind. It is used by a number of blind sports including blind tennis, para-alpine skiing, para-Nordic skiing, blind cricket, blind golf, five-a-side football, goalball and judo. Some other sports, including adaptive rowing, athletics and swimming, have equivalents to this class.

The B1 classification was first created by the IBSA in the 1970s, and has largely remained unchanged since despite an effort by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) to move towards a more functional and evidence-based classification system. Classification is often handled on the international level by the International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) but it sometimes handled by national sport federations. There are exceptions for sports like athletics and cycling, where classification is handled by their own governing bodies.

Equipment utilized by competitors in this class may differ from sport to sport, and may include sighted guides, guide rails, beeping balls and clapsticks. There may be some modifications related to equipment and rules to specifically address needs of competitors in this class to allow them to compete in specific sports. Some sports specifically do not allow a guide, whereas cycling and skiing require one.

(Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

錯誤狀態

• 敬請協助檢查有無頁面需要移動或刪除。一個維護腳本清理了無法造訪的頁面（由於Unicode問題或新命名空間/命名空間別名）。該腳本嘗試為頁面找到適當名稱（例如，遵循Unicode變更、將標題以Talk:WP:開頭的頁面移動至Wikipedia talk:），無法如此處理的頁面則移動至Special:PrefixIndex/T195546/。您的社群應檢查那裡是否有任何頁面，並將它們移動至正確的標題，又或者刪除不必要的頁面。完整日誌（包括找得到適當名稱的頁面）可在phab:P67388取得。
