Full Noise (aircraft)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

One of hundreds of individual racing aircraft nothing to indicate that this is noteworthy for a mention in wikipedia so really cant support a stand-alone article. MilborneOne (talk) 09:03, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 *  Delete Keep Not notable enough for its own article. I understand it's a first for New Zealand but we can't have an article for each individual aircraft. - Samf4u (talk) 12:00, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Change my vote. Was not aware of Category:Individual aircraft, thanks for enlightening me Petebutt. - Samf4u (talk) 14:40, 5 April 2018 (UTC)


 * If not deleted, Move to base name: no need for disambiguation, article should be at Full Noise. Pam  D  22:00, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep The precedent is set for named aircraft to have their own articles. If we were to use samf4us argument then every article at would have to be deleted.--Petebutt (talk) 03:46, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - Not sure I understand the logic, thousands of aircraft are named but very few are noteworthy. The inference is that having a name is notable which is not true. MilborneOne (talk) 09:56, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with, whether an individual machine is notable and whether it has a name are unrelated. &mdash; Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 10:53, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep - with the current two refs it seems to make WP:GNG and criteria 3 as well. - Ahunt (talk) 12:56, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - Both of the sources are "news" type mentions rather than article on the individual aircraft. MilborneOne (talk) 10:28, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with, these sources are not nearly enough to suggest notability, never mind to establish it. &mdash; Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 10:53, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete: The article subject fails WP:GNG. Just because it has a name and is mentioned in a couple of specialist journals does not make it notable. &mdash; Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 10:53, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Just to add to that, WP:GNG requires "Significant coverage", which "addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." The Swiss F/A-18 simulator AfD, for example, made it abundantly clear that we do not accept a few mentions in the odd journal as establishing notability. &mdash; Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 13:14, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment: Did you read the two refs cited? They are more than "mere mentions" of the aircraft. The individual aircraft is the sole subject of both articles. - Ahunt (talk) 14:11, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. I saw only news items padded with race trivia, not proper in-depth articles. &mdash; Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 15:58, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Just to comment that the Flypast entry is one of many bits of "news" that they have in each issue and really not what you consider an article. So in reality it a just a mere mention. MilborneOne (talk) 14:20, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Lots of aircraft have been given names, that certainly isn't enough to establish notability. Nor are the sources strong enough to establish notability.TheLongTone (talk) 13:07, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete – I would suggest we have an article about Full Noise when the aircraft starts achieving some noteworthy results, as opposed to merely taking part to the race. This would be in line with existing articles such as Rare Bear, Dago Red, Voodoo (aircraft) and a few others. --Deeday-UK (talk) 11:11, 7 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. The idea that giving something a name makes it notable is absurd.  Pan Am used to name every one of their aircraft (Clipper Whatever).  While a nice tradition, that didn't make them notable.  Are we also to write articles about every boat with a name?  -- RoySmith (talk) 17:09, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
