Manila vs Angeles

Please obtain consensus on Talk:Singapore Changi Airport#Tiger flies to Manila, not "Angeles_City" before attempting to move Clark flights to "Angeles City" again. Jpatokal 14:15, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

You asked for a reply, there it is: ↑. See also Wikipedia talk:Airline destination lists: Asia. Jpatokal 14:39, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Manila airports

Please continue the discussion on the project talk page. My talk page is not the best place. It is not a decision that one or two editors can make. Everyone who wants to participate on the talk page can contribute with a consensus name for listing both airports being the result of that discussion. Vegaswikian 08:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

KE ICN-CEB-ICN

Hey Chris. The guy is correct. KE will start to fly 6631/6632 ICN-CEB-ICN starting this week. I decided to just leave the guy alone this time. I believe it will start to fly this Sunday. Cheers. /ɪlεktʃɹɪk bluː/ 16:27, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

BKK not disambiguated on SIN article and faux-direct destination constantly added for United Airlines

Hey PikDig. One user has been constantly leaving Bangkok undisambiguated to leaving as "Bangkok" and not "Bangkok-Suvarnabhumi". They just think that ALL INTERNATIONAL flights go to Suvarnabhumi and just leaving it as Bangkok. Thai Airways International fly to both Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi so we need to disambiguate those to avoid confusion. What do you think? Should we disambiguate Bangkok or not? Also that user also keeps readding Atlanta as a destination to United supposedly that UA flies from Singapore to Atlanta directly. Should Atlanta remain or be removed? Thanks a bunch! Bucs2004 19:42, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

I have removed Atlanta on the SIN article since UA flight 896 from ORD-ATL is a Boeing 737. I just hope is not readded again. Bucs2004 20:13, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello I've been constantly fixing flights in LaGuardia Airport, also in JFK International Airport.

Dipolog Airport

"Thanks for the reminder. I already did cited my source at their respective links. Additional informations are added based on interviews and documentary evidence i obtained from concerned government officials. NOt all documentary sources can be found online, and some are quoted from copyrighted materials I read which are also the source of those links which are also the basis of those news items. Best efforts are made to trace the presence of this documents on the web as source of information for transparency. There are still plenty of additional information to add. I myself is a government official who happens to live and stay in Dipolog. I also happen to know what copyright law is. That's why I know what I'm talking about. I don't hide my name either. Best regards." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ariel c nunag (talk • contribs) 00:08, 6 May 2007 (UTC).

dipolog

Hey chris, can you do the honours for me please! I'm not so good at encyclopedic writing.Thank you.--Ariel c nunag 11:11, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

I corrected it to almost an encyclopeadic version. Its the best that I can do. If other paragraphs are still identical to news item, please do the honors to correct it. Readers deserve the right to know this information you know. If not, then I supposed I don't have to forced the issue. E-mail me for other concerns. Thank you very much.Ariel c nunag 17:20, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Wowowee

2007 tour stops.

I'm pretty sure they have mentioned the stops on the show itself but i'm not positive We can always remove them now and readd them once better refs become available. It's so hard to find wowowee info on the web that sometimes i error on the side of assumeing good faith when editing the page. Harlock jds 04:24, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

References

The gimmicky reference templates create problems for readers with visual impairments, as well as for thiose using small screens. The MoS instructions are to use <references/>. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 20:13, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

The fact that other editors misuse the template isn't a reason to override the MoS, nor does it respond to the reason I gave for not using it. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:07, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
  1. Your message on the MoS Talk page didn't really make sense; pointing to what the MoS says in the middle of a discussion of what the MoS should say...
  2. Do you in fact have any reason for preferring the small references beyond personal aesthetics? --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:06, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Continental Micronesia

CoMike used to fly to Osaka and Taipei... not anymore! WhisperToMe 17:42, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I noticed that you removed "Osaka and Taipei" - I just wanted to tell you why they were listed in the first place :) WhisperToMe 02:13, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Kalibo (KLO) The Philippine's newest International Airport

I can't seem to find any info @ OAG.org IRT Asian spirit flights to South Korea that's why I used the Aklan online news blog.
DYRU RGMA Radio here in Kalibo stated that the flight took on passengers in Hong Kong and stopped in Subic on it's return due to no refueling facilities available here in Kalibo.
BTY I watched as the (unusual Model/markings PAL doesn't use MacDonald Douglas aircraft) plane passed low directly over my house, normally PAL flies several miles west of me to vector around to the KLO's southern approach. ----Mkouklis 14:30, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Your Trips and Time Travel

Hello PikDig,

Not that I am stalking your user page, but your tentative flight to Germany only involves a change of one day, right? It ain't time traveling that would allow you to reverse exactly one year, aye? Cheers. /ɪlεktʃɹɪk bluː/ 13:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Sources on destination pages

I am not a regular in whatever project these pages may be a part of, but I'm not familiar with any policy that would be supportive of the idea of articles without reliable sources. A quick check of an airline well known to me supports your representation that sources are routinely omitted on these pages, so it's clear this must be a category-wide issue. I'd suggest that if the project hasn't already discussed this, consideration should probably be given to including appropriate references. Erechtheus 04:23, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Cagayan de Oro (C de O)

I was able to talk with Ms. Roa of the City Historical Commission and she is campaigning for the use of C de O instead of CDO to distinguish the city from the CDO Meat Product based in Manila. Some city made streamers are using this abbreviation. VisitCDO 22:37, 17 June 2007

CRK and 5J's new destinations

Supporting citations, airport names

Following on our discussion here regarding your reversion of some changes I had made to Asian Spirit destinations, and on a related discussion re airport names here, and considering WP:V and WP:OR, I plan to unrevert the changes which I had made to this article and which you reverted. I don't want to get into an revert war about this, though. If your reaction would be to re-revert my unreversion, then instead of unreverting your reversion I would seek wider discussion about this with third parties and some informal mediation per WP:Dispute. Please let me know whether you would react by re-reverting my unreversion. -- Boracay Bill 00:26, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I saw your response on my talk page saying, "I would definitely react..". My reaction to that is here. If you wish to discuss the matter, let's do it here rather than cross-editing one another's talk pages. I currently have your talk page on my watchlist and will see edits which you make to it. -- Boracay Bill 06:15, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

QF JFK-LAX

Hi PikDig! I noticed that you have reverted a lot of edits containing the Qantas JFK-LAX issue. The same IP has added Los Angeles as a destination for Qantas. I have put a discussion on the JFK Airport talk page but people just seem to ignore it. Should we report him or not? I have left message on his talk page about introducing incorrect info into articles but I think he will continue to add LAX as a destination again. Let me know if he continues to add LAX again! Thanks. Bucs2004 17:57, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

We should report him because I believe it has been reverted 4 times in a single 24 hours which the rule only states that 3 reverts in a single 24 hour (3RR). -chris^_^ 06:12, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Cebu Pacific's Current Fleet

Hi there, I've saw what you did on how many aircrafts did Cebu Pacific Air ordered, I'm afraid but you're mistaken because they ordered 10 Airbus A319 (5 are options) and 10 leases/deliveries not 10 orders and 6 options. Also they ordered 12 A320 (6 are options) and 2 leases/deliveries not 2 orders and 2 options. Try to search here in Wikipedia "List of Airbus A320 orders" so that you will know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lukla (talk • contribs) 12:04, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Cebu Pacific's Current Fleet

Cebu Pacific's A320(lease) has arrived last October which means only one remaining A320(lease) will be delivered but you change 1 to 2 in the number of leases of A320 of Cebu Pacific's current fleet. Next time please look first some updates of Cebu Pacific or news before you do something. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lukla (talk • contribs) 04:54, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

JFK

We have long discussed this on WP:Airports as these flights. my eidts is NOT vandalism. You have been notified about this. Thru flights that require a connection as its hub should not be listed as a destination as it changes aircraft. If you look up the flight number for the JFK-YYC, none of them operates under the same flight number. This has been far far discussed! Please read requirement #5 at WP:AIRPORTS. Thanks!! Bucs2004 16:27, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Then why did you undo my first edit? Bucs2004 05:19, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
I accidentally undid your first edit, I didn't mean to undo it or anything I thought I was undoing another page that time and just noticed it now. -chris^_^ 05:21, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Cebu Pacific Pricing Section

I think that a pricing section is needed for Cebu Pacific. This is the english section of Wiki, and many people that visit are not from the Philippines, and are not used to the way business is done in the Philippines. I would have loved to have read this section a year ago when I first arrived, it would have saved me a ton of time. I am just stating the way that pricing is done. I know that other Philippine companies do it the same way, I even stated it. Maybe I should add something like this to their sections also. I like cebu pacific, I am flying with them tomorrow, as I do almost every week. I don't see how it is biased, and I never recommended PAL or even mentioned it. I am just stating facts.

So what do you want to see in this section so you stop deleting it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JasonDragon (talk • contribs) 01:04, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

The first two paragraphs are biased over PAL and Air Phil. because it states that the terminal is old, etc. and which would many think would be reviews (see WP:NOT). Secondly all airlines (except North American airlines) charge fuel/insurance surcharge and taxes so technically this is unecessary since it's a practice of almost all operating airlines. Thirdly, all low-cost airlines, not only Philippine airlines has the same pricing method so technically it's unecessary. -chris^_^ 03:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

TPE / Multiple Airports disambiguation

Can you have a look at the past discussions over the TPE disam controversy at SIN, TPE and WP:Airports discussion pages thanks. If you're going to be consistent with proper names, this would mean converting the other airports like New York-JFK to its proper name of New York-John F Kennedy for example. I've reverted your edits on the SIN pages as there is no consensus over it. --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 14:42, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

HKG-MNL on Air Niugini

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought all foreign carriers can't sell tickets between MNL-China. I am often confused of this pick-up rights issue. Cheers! I have readded Manila as a destination for Air Niugini on the HKG article. Bucs2004 (talk) 16:18, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
