Reno-Tahoe Airport
Hello, I am sorry you think I am making disruptive edits, all I am doing is adding a small reference. The article that I cited (https://www.rgj.com/story/life/2017/09/14/date-1862-jesse-lee-reno-killed-battle/664595001/) states "Reno, the infantry commander from Pennsylvania who is Reno's namesake, died three days before the battle of Antietam." This references the fact that the city of Reno was named after Jesse Lee Reno. I'm just trying my best to be helpful and providing a link for a source that states Reno is named after Jesse L Reno.

Please let me know. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linphil (talk • contribs) 13:31, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Would this link work better? https://centreforaviation.com/data/profiles/airports/reno-tahoe-international-airport-rno

Explains how the airport is located in Reno, Nevada and a gateway to Lake Tahoe.

I don't understand if the link should describe why it is named Reno and Tahoe Airport or just Reno is named after Jesse L Reno? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linphil (talk • contribs) 13:40, 17 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Since the article is about the airport, not the city, and the sentence claims the airport is named after two people, the reference should explicitly state why the airport is named after those people. I suspect that "citation needed" was added because the assumption is that the airport is named after the city, not those people. If you cannot find such a source after exhaustive research, it would be okay to remove that sentence entirely and state your reasoning in the edit summary. Kstern (talk) 13:52, 17 August 2020 (UTC)


 * So basically, the city of Reno is named after Jesse L Reno and one would assume that Reno Airport is named after the city it is in. How about taking out the Jesse L. Reno part? It is named after both the City of Reno and Lake Tahoe https://centreforaviation.com/data/profiles/airports/reno-tahoe-international-airport-rno. The airport isn't named after him, only the city that the airport is named after is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linphil (talk • contribs) 14:08, 17 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes, stating that the airport is named after both the city and Lake Tahoe would be accurate in the absence of a source that states otherwise. Kstern (talk) 14:19, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Manual of style flags
the MOS:FLAG is clear that flags should not be used as decoration = it is claer that there use on the Kiwifruit page is simply for direction.Andrewgprout (talk) 17:11, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Andrewgprout The guidelines specifically state: "In lists or tables, flag icons may be relevant when such representation of different subjects is pertinent to the purpose of the list or table itself." If you feel this is incorrect, you will have to work with the admins to change the guidelines and subsequently edit every crop page on Wikipedia. Here are just a few of the hundreds of examples: Grapefruit, Banana, Broccoli, Wheat, Honey, Tomato, Avocado, Barley, Lemon, Sesame, Sugarcane, Soybean. Please stop reverting legitimate edits.
