Talk:Trajan Buia

According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, the first successful monoplane flight – a duration of 12 meters – was on March 18, 1906 in a craft fashioned by "Trajan Buia", a Romanian inventor. The Wikipedia article spells it with a V. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 16:21, 18 March 2012 (UTC) 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 16:21, 18 March 2012 (UTC) Please make sure I did this right.


 * Brittanica online looks like an initial V to me. Vuia is usual spellingTheLongTone (talk) 17:19, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * No, you didn't do the redirect right, but I have fixed it. You can see how I have done it, or WP:REDIRECT explains. JohnCD (talk) 17:40, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Not an initial V, but a name "Vuia." I replied on The Long Tone's talk page. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 17:56, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You are right, but I could swear it was "Buia" when I started this morning. I made the edit to monoplane and did not actually type in the name, but only wikified it and got a red link. I'm not making this up. I don't know if Britannica corrected it. Can't explain. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 18:05, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Looking at the Britannica daily e-mail, apparently I was wrong. I apologize for the error. <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 19:37, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
