Help Needed

Hi, I'm making efforts to add 3rd reference column in Airport's Airlines and destinations list, Andrewgprout asked Please get consensus that a third column is sensible and fits with Wikipedia verification policies [1], please help me to make him understand about 3rd Reference column.

According to me, 3rd reference column will make compulsion for editors to add reference that will make content more verifiable. 649pardeep (talk) 11:14, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

I'm sorry to tell you, but unfortunately, there have been multiple discussions in the past (including one that was started just a week ago) regarding this topic and there is a strong consensus among the Wikipedia community to not include the third ref column in airline destinations tables. From my point of view and may other Wikipedians point of view, the third column is just being used to put links to airlines booking websites and route maps which can both be placed next to the airline name. They really haven't done anything to make compulsion to add references.
Sorry I couldn't help you but I do want to say good job at your work at making sure that destinations that are starting/ending are referenced properly, there's a lot of people who add beginning/ending destinations without a proper source.

Vandal editor

El C, viewable on the FedEx Express page makes a career out of reverting edits for poor reasons leaving worse data than may have existed.

Thanks for your message. The short answer to your question is no he cannot be blocked from editing because he/she is an administrator, they are the ones who can block people. I looked through the page history and El C's edit history, and it appears he/she is reverting the edits to reverting the edits on the FedEx page from people to update the fleet numbers because nobody has cited a source to support the change.

GRB-IAD Question

Hello! So I saw under Air Wisconsin's website under routes that GRB-IAH was cited as a route. I'm wondering if this is a mistake or if this is actually going to happen but it got released a bit earlier than it was supposed to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.133.46.142 (talk) 01:00, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

@Disneynutty1398: Interesting, I haven't heard anything about flights between GRB and IAD as of yet. I know a few people who work for Air Wisconsin, but unfortunately in maintenance, so they most likely wouldn't know. The airlines have been making loads of announcments regarding routes latelty so we may see something in the next few days.--KDTW Flyer (talk) 01:53, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
BTW, I hid IAD from the destinations table on the GRB article due to the uncertainty of the acuracy of this infomation for now but it can certialy be unhiden if an announcement is made --KDTW Flyer (talk) 02:08, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Sorry I have another question on this topic. So AirOps made an edit today that indicated he saw a direct flight on United's website. I tried to get into contact with him to see how he got that info but he didn't respond back yet. I was wondering if you have any other information on the GRB-IAD route. Thank You! - Disneynutty1398

So we can keep this discussion in one place I will respond on AirOpsExecnPlt's page. --KDTW Flyer (talk) 01:35, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

2019 US Banknote Contest

US Banknote Contest
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here

  • Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW); in first sentence where it says ...covering 4,850 acres (1,960 ha), source with FAA Airport Master Record for DTW (form 5010). Place citation next to that data, not at end of sentence. Accidently deleted this when I deleted a dead source.

Thank you and have a good week ahead.2601:581:8000:BDC0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 17:44, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

I am doing good, I will get a start on these later today --KDTW Flyer (talk) 14:43, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

There are still four (4) to be done. Can you do them?2601:581:8000:BDC0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 13:04, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

Sure! --KDTW Flyer (talk) 14:04, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

Are you going to do the last one, DTW Airport?2601:581:8000:BDC0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 12:10, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

I was going to do it yesterday but then I had another commitment that came before you for one of my kids. Sorry, this past month has been busy as you know me. I will definitely get the next set of citations added in a more timely fashion next time. One of the hold-ups I've been having is that the standard wiki template that I use to generate the link to the form 5010 seems to be not functioning. The AirportIQ database which is what I normally link to has been redesigned and now there is no way to specify which airport you want to link to in the URL. I am going to see if someone can figure out how to modify this template to fix this. I just put a link in there for the AirNav website but I just remembered that it doesn't show land area and so far I can't think of anywhere else to find land area information but hopefully, this will get figured out soon. --KDTW Flyer (talk) 03:52, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
Update! I was able to find a PDF link on the new 5010 website and I've linked that in the DTW article.--KDTW Flyer (talk) 03:56, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you very kindly, yes, I realize you are busy in real life and the Airport IQ (Form 5010) website has been overhauled, but this is very good. In about 3-4 weeks I am going to add a new section to Oakland Int'l Airport (Accidents near OAK) which will have 7-8 incidents. Will also add to San Francisco Intl (SFO), 4 additional incidents and O'Hare Int'l (ORD), 4 additional incidents. Will space out every 4 weeks. You have a great Thanksgiving with your family.2601:581:8000:BDC0:304C:CD3D:3958:6A95 (talk) 11:30, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Citation for GRB article

Hey could you add some citations to the listing in the GRB article. Theres the NTSB numbers but no links to reports or the ASN database, could you maybe over the next few days add some links to the final reports or ASN database? --198.150.183.44 (talk) 15:16, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Sure! I will get as much of the incidents cited as I can over the next few days --KDTW Flyer (talk) 04:08, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
 Done! --KDTW Flyer (talk) 23:29, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
