[edit] Who's disputing it?

Please explain why you insert tags into the article here. Buckshot06 00:58, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Seriously, I don't see anybody disputing it - what's going on?

Yeah, Nobody talking about this (November 25/2006)

Well. I can dispute it. It was in design phase as far as in 1994 [1] - so where is news about prototype and other development phases ? All that we can see on constructors website is plastic model only [2]. --TAG 06:36, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

An obvious solution is to note that it has been in the design phase for the last 12 years (though I couldn't find that info in the article you linked to). That should provide enough facts to cast doubt on whether it will actually fly without breaking our obligation to neutrality. Karl Dickman ^talk 16:33, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

OK. Maybe I've got year wrong - but here is clear text [3] that NO works currently in progress (only conception development) because of luck of funding (estimate is 12-13 billions of USD). I can accept comparing Mriya to non-existing Boeing 747-8 in Giant Aircrafts box simply because it's evolution of existing models and Boeing already getting orders for it and for sure will try hard to produce 747-8. But I can not accept small plastic model. Even more - there are announced technical issues for projects - like new powerful engines [4] as no existing engines will suit current 2500 tons design. Maybe in far-far future this project will see light - but now it's nothing but promotional material. --TAG 17:22, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

There is really nothing in the text that is in dispute, other than its status. The {future products} tag seems sufficient warning to me, esp the statement "It may contain unverified or unreliable information", along with the {citation needed} within the text. Therefore I am removing the {In dispute} tag, as they are somewhat overlapping. In addition, the tag ought to have been placed above, not below, the Infobox, so as not to cause a large gap in the text (such as there is). However, if proof cannot be found that it is an ongoing project, it should probably be reclassed as a "cancelled project", rather than slapping the "dispute" tag back on. - BillCJ 18:41, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
