Talk:Firebird (roller coaster)

A change
Can I please make a edit that Iron Wolf is rough because of the style of the trains?

MHLU (talk) 23:07, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Sure - It is rough because the train doesn't basicly run on B&M's box-section track - on Intamin's track that is not box section.

Glad to help. 70.246.204.190 (talk) 23:33, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Not true, Iron Wolf is not rough due to the style of trains. It has used the same trains since its opening in 1990, and ran smoothly up until about 2001. Article altered to reflect that. 69.23.208.51 (talk) 07:38, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Name of coaster
Should the title of this coaster be changed to Apocalypse: The Last Stand. That is the official name of the coaster — Preceding unsigned comment added by Astros4477 (talk • contribs) 03:44, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * The Last Stand is a subtitle and doesn't necessarily need to exist in the article's title heading. As you can see from the description on Six Flags' website, it is commonly referred to as just Apocalypse.  The title seems to be fine the way it is.  Another thing to consider is that if the title is changed following your suggestion, multiple links that have recently been updated to point to Apocalypse (Six Flags America) will need to be updated again.  Probably not worth it, IMHO.  Check your talk page, by the way, for other messages about recent edits you've made.  GoneIn60 (talk) 17:30, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with the above. I have added a redirect at Apocalypse: The Last Stand to point to this article. Themeparkgc   Talk  21:18, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

Info Box!
With the info box Astros4477 added makes it looks like their was two of the same rides at two different parks but it is not! Like for example SkyScreamer they are all different in some way and at different parks. Apocalypse is just a relocated ride so it shouldn't look like a their is still one at Great America.--Jpp858 (talk) 23:38, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * It clearly states it has been closed and relocated from Great America to America. --Astros4477 (talk) 23:45, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I support the extended infobox. I created that functionality to allow multiple locations to be included whether two rides were run in parallel with identical names and statistics, or whether rides were relocated. Themeparkgc   Talk  01:36, 27 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Can someone take off the tag that says introduce in 2011, since it wasn't introduce in 2011. Cause I can't just take it off it it is like filter with the infobox.--Jpp858 (talk) 03:19, 27 February 2012 (UTC)


 * That was a result of you using the year parameter incorrectly. I fixed it in this edit . The year parameter is used for the year rides were introduced and not for the year that they closed. Themeparkgc   Talk  03:57, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

It’s still open as Apocalypse
We should keep the name Apocalypse for the article until it closes — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.172.180.75 (talk) 05:17, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
