[edit] Air Charter

You keep removing Charterx from the Air charter wiki. Charterx operates the marketplace for air charter commerce. It is a neutral site, not an operator, broker etc. Meanwhile, the air charter guide stays there, a commercially driven, advertising sponsored publication.

[edit] Home and Away

Hi, you have nominated various Home&Away character articles for deletion. I have had a go at combining all the articles in a single article (which I admit still needs a lot of work). You can find it at Current Home and Away characters. I suggest we keep this article are either delete or re-direct the others. Thanks, Evil Eye 12:58, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Looks fantastic! I think we can delete the others since the only inbound links are from the Home & Away article or the other character articles. Dbchip 17:01, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grave Creek Stone

Hi, I was wondering if you could let me know, is this a known hoax, as the article claims, or a meta-hoax. Famous hoaxes, of course deserve articles which describe them as such. Rich Farmbrough 23:49, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Template talk:US-airport

Thanks for the comments. I followed the link from my local airport, which is quite small, and the resulting information seemed useful. I don't have much of an interest in whether the link stays or goes, but I prefer to do so on the merits of the information itself rather than the perceived motives of the site operators. Therefore, I think your comments would actually be more helpful as a response on the template's talk page rather than mine--do you mind if I move them there? Or perhaps you would prefer to do so? Thanks again. Demi T/C 21:50, 18 January 2006 (UTC)


Greetings. I didn't do any work to {{US-airport}}. I tried to remove the K from {{US-airport-ga}}, but only the AirNav link remained working, which made it effectively the same as {{airnav}}. So, I reverted the changes. McNeight 22:44, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AirTran Airways

I removed some of the text from this article because it does not read like an encylopedic entry. The phrase 'still reeling from the public relations disaster' does not sound very encylopedic to me. Also the second link to Atlanta should not be a wiki link. Vegaswikian 22:51, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Look at the new version. I think it is closer to a solution. Still needs a few tweeks. Vegaswikian 06:34, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Candi Kubeck

I have removed the {{prod}} tag from this article. WP:PROD is only intended for deltetions that would be considered uncontroversial. In my opinion, the deletion of an article that has previously survived two trips to AfD does not count as an uncontroversial deletion. If there is a good reason for this article to be deleted I suggest that you initiate another AfD. JeremyA 04:20, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

If you have merged all of the useful content into the valujet 592 article then a redirect to that article might be more appropriate... in fact under the terms of the GFDL a merged article can't be deleted as we need to preserve the edit history. JeremyA 04:29, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Peter Tomarken, plane crash and "deathcruft"

If you will allow me, I strongly feel the information re the plane crash is TMI as written in this article (I believe this qualifies as "deathcruft" [if there is such a thing]). The article itself should contain only the information that is immediately relevant, with the remainder included as simple "Further reading" links. RadioKirk talk to me 16:28, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aircraft

That last edit to aircraft you put back both the vandalism and the linkspam here. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 00:24, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

No problem I did the same thing this morning. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 00:27, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Exxon/Wal-Mart ranking

Good, hopefully someone will update the List_of_Fortune_500 to keep it holistic. That's the one I ran by. The Fortune list's section need a complete clearness remake by the way. Could you perhaps, if you have the new numbers, update the Wal-Mart page as well to avoid inconsistencies (which was what I was assaying to).

[edit] Delamination

You reverted my edit to delamination in Air_safety article. Can you please read the discussion page for this article where I justify it's removal - before attempt to revert again. I'd appreciate it if you could leave a message there. Thanks...

The information I removed is factually incorrect in at least some crucial areas (the anti-Airbus lobby have got their hands on the article it would seem). Note how content applies to all transport category jets and mentions reversal:

[edit] It is not rewriting history. You are obviously biased.

ValuJet does not currently operate as AirTran Airways. The companies merged, but what was ValuJet is not AirTran. The planes, leadership, business model are all different. That line should be deleted. If the user wants to see how the current AirTran was formed they should visit the AirTran page. The two carriers have seperate pages for a reason.

[edit] River Oaks vs. Tanglewood

Thanks, you're obviously correct. Chalk it up to a misreading of a White House article and a misunderstanding of Houston geography. --Dhartung | Talk 22:04, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Non-notable businesses"

I don't see how the businesses that I listed in West University Place are "non notable". They are all chains and they all have Wikipedia articles. WhisperToMe 22:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

The companies themselves are notable. However, their presence in a community, neighborhood, or city is not necessarily notable. Additionally, you can safely assume that most urban parts of the world have a dry cleaners and the various chains that are nationwide. In the case of west U, it's even misleading because the area has a plethora of local businesses and those should be documented to an even greater extent than the chains.

[edit] US-airport-ga template suggestion

Hi,

I have a suggestion for the US-airport-ga template:

I am operating the aviation website www.flyagogo.net which provides GA pilots with live satellite and radar weather, draggable sectional and terminal area charts, an extensive current airport database, and a very unique graphical flight planning interface with elevation profiles, weather overlays, and a lot more.

Please consider adding a link to my website to the US-airport-ga template. A link would look like this:

  www.flyagogo.net/?apt:XXXX

(XXXX is the 4 letter airport identifier, usually the 1st X would be the letter K)

Alternatively please let me know where this issue could be discussed with other memebers of the wikipedia community.

Many greetings, Leif Wilden (leif@leifhendrik.net)

[edit] Lee Raymond

You must be Lee Raymond's son, you removed his 4 chined picture claiming it was copyrighted, although it is a picture in the public domain. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.80.64.177 (talk • contribs)

As valuable as your opinion is, I suspect that the Associated Press and Donna McWilliam (the photographer) would strongly disagree with you. Dbchip 01:27, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flyertalk Criticism Entries

You reverted back the Criticism on Flyertalk, yet have no reference or citations to any undue influence or example of people getting ripped off.

For influence: The site uses volunteer moderators that have no connection to the magazine. There are often very critical posts of the travel providers that advertise in in Inside Flyer. In addition, there are regularly mistakes and other "deals" posted that allow people to take advantage of travel providers web pricing errors. Petersen or the admin of the site do not interfere with these posts.

As far as the Coupon Connection goes, you need to be a member of the site for a minimum of 90 days and have made 90 posts before you can see the forum. This cuts down on the fly by night scammers. In four years I have only seen a handful of trades go awry, and each time the person has been made whole though policing efforts of other members or the largess of the community. That's a lot more than can be said of ebay.

Are you an active user of the site? Skofarrell 18:29, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why I added a current event link to the Atlanta Airport article

I added a current event link to the article because the airport was the destination of the crashed Comair flight. WhisperToMe 03:27, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Commercial Bias

This account appears linked with another potential sock puppet, Lucent, and has been showing considerable commercial bias with regard to the US-airport-ga template, and apparently other aviation related links, in violation of the Editing policy and the Neutral Point Of View. Please refrain from allowing potential commercial interests influence your editing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.33.51.221 (talk • contribs)

I don't know what you're talking about and I also see that you've been banned for link spam. Wikipedia editors and administrators are not going to be fooled by your accusations in an attempt to deceive the community into accepting your spam. Dbchip 05:32, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Any Wikipedia administrator/editor will be able to examine your intertwined histories to observe evidence of that. How does adding links to free, related informational sites constitute spam? Your clearly biased with a slant towards your own company, and your behavior is surprisingly unprofessional.

[edit] Air Charter

DChip, my intent was not to spam. Thank you for alerting me on the rules and regs, I am new to the site. Please feel free to use my operational control article http://www.jets.com/charter_flight_UncompromisedSafetyMar.aspx where you see fit within Air Charter or a new definition. Operational control and transparency has become a major issue within the industry. It is not uncommon for charter programs to advertise wide ranging fleets and place, without the customer being aware of it, on another providers jet. This can be varified in the following article regarding at: http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_4153364 I hope this information is useful to you.

All the best, Nate

[edit] operational control and private jet membership

DChip, I'm not sure if I've done this correctly. Could you please review my recent pieces on Operational Control and Private Jet Membership?

Much appreciated.
