[edit] Direct flights

The only direct flights we list are international services with no plane change. For example, the kangaroo route or BA's IAH-ORD-LHR service. FCYTravis 20:16, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discontinued service

Hey NW036- you should probably bring the "discontinued service discussion" at the discussion page for WP:Airports...I think color="blue">23 22:47, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

p.s. : nice user page ;) Sox23 22:47, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

no prob- I actually copied it from someone else too...lol...but anyways I created the Discontinued Service section in the discussion section of WP:Airports so feel free to give your 2 cents. (It's basically the same argument as the SEA article) Sox23 23:01, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Incident at Tedius Zanarukando's userpage

Anonymous user 66.38.164.40 has reportedly vandalized my userpage by flipping the Likes and Dislikes sections with the intent of inversion of my opinion. That has angered me. I have just reverted those edits by the anonymous user. That user should not be allowed to edit my userpage again. Decimus Tedius Regio Zanarukando 00:48, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Midwest Airlines at PIT

LOL- thanks for catching the mistake...I knew something wasn't right when I went to the Midwest page and MCI-PIT was still scheduled. I'm just gettin ahead of myself ;) Sox23 23:58, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pittsburgh International Airport

It looks like you have put much work into Pittsburgh International Airport and in my opinion it meets B-class article criteria. After the Review is complete I would nominate it for a GA-class article. If you have any questions visit my Talk Page. Marcusmax 23:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Just finished my official review, it can be found on the Aviation Review page. Marcusmax 02:50, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

I awarded Pittsburgh International Airport B status, it now meets full criteria. I think you should nominate it for GA now. Marcusmax 20:25, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 02:12, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Former routes

Hey NW036 - I notice that you mentioned some airport talk pages that say Former Routes has been decided to not be useful - I searched, but can't find those discussions. I'd like to remove former routes from the San Francisco International Airport article, and would like those discussions as justification. Thanks! (You can reply on this page, it'll be on my watchlist) --Matt 15:50, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

• It was never given a final answer, but it was generally agreed that it is rather unhelpful at the following link: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Airports/Archive6#Discontinued Service After looking at SFO's page I agree that it should be removed and will make the article much less cluttered. NW036 22:57, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
• Also noted on Sea-Tac's page NW036 22:59, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks! I appreciate the links. --Matt 23:03, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

By the way, there's another discussion about it at Talk:San Francisco International Airport#Former routes removed, so I invite you to give your opinion there too. Thanks --Matt 11:58, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for actually removing many of the sections - I was in flight when consensus was reached! --Matt 04:49, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RDU Previous airline/destination removal

You stated that according to WP:airports, the huge amount of information that I collected about Previous Airlines and their destinations were removed. I looked over WP:Airports and I saw no discussion over that information and I saw nothing remotely close saying not to include it. So, could you either:

1. show me exactly where it was discussed not to include such information 2. please undo your delete 3. add the information as a new page that list "Previous airlines and destinations" because I believe that information is important to the airport as a part of it's history.

Kacey 11:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

• Okay, I found it once I posted the article. The fact is all the information from the RDU page is thoroughly searchable on the internet and can be found there (as, in fact, this is where I found the information). I would like to suggest option 3 above as in fact some people do find this information useful. It's important to know where service once was served as a point of reference.

[edit] Previous Service

Hey NW036- in regards to the removal of previous service at the SAN page, I for some reason like how it fits into the article. As there is a "current service", "future service", and "previous service". I do agree with you that it is very lengthy and sloopy so I would suggest maybe a cleanup of the section. Also, the previous airlines section in that article also has an explanitory paragraph in the beginning rather than just simply listing all of the previous carriers. I don't know. I'm indifferent to the section on that page...If you need anything else I'm here Sox23 21:54, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] History of Pittsburgh is an FAC

Thank you for taking the time to pass History of Pittsburgh as a GA. Since you are already familiar with the article, I wanted to point out that History of Pittsburgh is now an FAC. If you have time, could you please give a review? Thanks! PadreNuestro 01:50, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Bwe.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bwe.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 18:52, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 787 rude comment

I went over to tell the person with the rude comment that his/her action was unwarranted and I saw that you had already been to his/her talk page. I wanted to thank you for that. Marcus--Bangabalunga 04:32, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Northwest Airlines Fleet Table

We are not listing codes. I have discussed this before. I've been editing the Northwest Airlines page for a while now. This is not the official Northwest Airlines page so there is absolutely no reason to list ANY codes. A normal reader wouldn't understand what those codes mean so don't list them.--Golich17 17:20, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

I support your edit, NW036, and reverted the edit by Golich17. This edit you made, as well as my revert, has now been reverted once again by this user. Perhaps you would care to add your comments on the talk page for NW. I am not aware of any consensus having been reached about not using the full aircraft model numbers.

The aircraft type is of encyclopedic interest; it is not a obscure code which few understand. It is in fact the actual aircraft model.

Adding this information does not take up any more space or require any more effort to analyze. For instance, if you don't care that the NW B747-451 was built for NW, you can just ignore the -451 and consider it a generic -400. This information is useful when seeing which aircraft have migrated to other airlines at later points in their history.

Remember that Wikipedia is not limited to information which is of interest only to a "normal reader." Wikipedia also includes information of use to those who have greater knowledge of the subject. If you are in doubt of concept, refer to articles in the area of science, technology and medicine. Plenty of this information is written to higher standard than a "normal" reader would require.

Then how come the Northwest flight from Detroit has not been changed then? And why not put "Saturdays only" the public deserves to know.

[edit] Need Help updating old Wikiproject Aviation stuff

Hello NW036, I think it is seriously time we start updating our old pages here at WikiProject Aviation. We need a new Collaboration of the month. Old Reviews need to be archived.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:AIRMALL logo.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:AIRMALL logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr 20:39, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
