Air Force One

 * Article is still a featured article.

The page is really good, but it's totally inaccurate. The page refers to the U.S. Presidential Fleet (of 747s) as Air Force One, when that term is actually only a callsign. In fact, a lot of the time, those planes are not called Air Force One. (Over 50% of their flight time) CoolGuy 22:19, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)


 * First line: "Air Force One is the air traffic control callsign of any U.S. Air Force aircraft carrying the President of the United States". Are you sure that deleting featured status would not be an over-reaction? Wouldn't a few minor edits on your part to iron out any ambiguities on this point be more appropriate?

 * Keep, based on the above. - Taxman 22:56, Apr 25, 2005 (UTC)

Ok thanks for helping. I've fixed the page. I have a question though: if I have a question about an article or a Wikipedia policy, where is the best place to ask? Other than the discussion page of the article--which doesn't often get a reply. Let me know! CoolGuy 05:37, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)


 * Though it is not often admitted, comments on talk pages often get ignored (unless it is a popular page and you say something controversial). If you are just making quiet improvements or, whole-scale improvements on quiet articles, then the best advice is to just go ahead and do it - this is where the advice "be bold" is as true now as it ever was. If you really foul things up, it will be noticed but there is a natural tendency for people only to bother when it starts affected the "real" page. Pcb21| Pete 07:45, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. The minor issue that led to this removal nomination has been easily resolved.   [  +t,  +c  ] 06:32, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice. This section can be removed. CoolGuy 06:34, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
