Reason for use of multiple definitions

[edit]

The reason Australian definitions are provided in some classification articles is two fold. First, there was an aim to provide several definitions because the classification definition as provided by the IPC is often confusing to the lay reader. By offering multiple definitions, people are likely to have a better chance of understanding that. (Beyond that, national classifications do matter, because you can be classified for national competitions but not internationally classified.) The second reason they are provided is trying to write definitions of the classifications is a major PITA given the highly technical nature of these descriptions. By quoting these definitions, it is easier to avoid inadvertent plagiarism or to change to accidentally change the definition of these classification. --LauraHale (talk) 13:07, 24 January 2013 (UTC)Reply
