Talk:Arado E.381

About the refs
Can we use either Notes or References and not both, East of Borschov? AirplanePro RadioChecklist 19:41, 11 June 2010 (UTC)


 * The use of both headings is acceptable and encouraged in WP:CITESHORT. Specifically notes are for short references (i.e. Author, Date and Page) and References are for the full citation of the works used in the short references. Anotherclown (talk) 02:24, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Reassessment
I have reassessed this now as Start class, from a B. Although it is clearly a very obscure aircraft, and this no doubt means that it will always be fairly brief, I feel that the article is not yet comprehensive enough to meet this standard. Specifically a table of aircraft specifications could be added (which is fairly standard for aircraft articles), while at the same time it also falls down on referencing as only one main work has been cited. If these are added I would be happy to revise this assessment. Good work so far. Anotherclown (talk) 02:30, 23 June 2010 (UTC)


 * I see these have been added now and the article reassessed by another user as B class, well done. Anotherclown (talk) 15:49, 24 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks! Is there anything you think that could be added now? AirplanePro RadioChecklist 20:48, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Move?
Since this wasn't an operational type, shouldn't this be moved to Arado E.381? TREKphiler  any time you're ready, Uhura  21:15, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. The sources do not call it either Arado Ar E.381 or Arado E.31, but simply the "E.381" from "Arado." WikiCopter (radio • sorties • images • lost • defense &bull; attack) 23:05, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Which really supports the move, doesn't it? Since that means the identifier is "Arado E.381". Which the pagename would be...  TREKphiler   any time you're ready, Uhura  00:50, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I think this would be better discussed here than here. Make your proposal there. WikiCopter (radio • sorties • images • lost • defense &bull; attack) 01:36, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

Reward
User:AirplanePro offered a reward back in June 2010 to get this article up to A class, and since it now is, technically the award should be given to someone. However, AP is no longer active, and therefore will most likely not be giving the award. So I figure either the award can be self-given, or I'd be willing to give the award on behalf of AP, the only thing is, I'm not sure who it should go to. It seems that User:WikiCopter has had the most edits since the offer was placed, but User:AustralianRupert and User:Dank also seem to have contributed. I figure you can work it out between yourselves, or maybe multiple awards can be given, as AP did not seem to stipulate how many people will receive the award. MrKIA11 (talk) 04:22, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
 * This has been cleared up before, I am AirplanePro's successor account operated by the same person. I don't really have time now to point out where that was cleared up, somewhere either on my talk archives or AirplanePro's talk archives. I'm not really sure, since I did most of the work to A class, (dare I say it...) AustralianRupert and Dank were working on the prose, I believe, not content.

 * Haha, well then I guess you can decide what you want to do with the award. MrKIA11 (talk) 00:29, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Image is not an original photograph
The image in this article is not an actual photograph, instead it shows a rendered Ar 234C and E.381 superimposed on a photograph. Please compare with actual photographs of Ar 234C: - http://www.warbirdphotographs.com/LCBW6/Ar234-C3-45af+.jpg Cockpit instrumentation windscreen details should be clearly visible, but are missing. Also note position of the engine cones. The 3D model of Ar 234C and E.381 has also been used for further fakes, see http://discaircraft.greyfalcon.us/Faked%20German%20Aircraft%20Photos.htm Sansmalrst (talk) 16:46, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I will make a note of this on the article. Thanks. WikiCopter 23:52, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
