 * Comment the caption mentions an arresting wire…which I don't see.--HereToHelp 00:54, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Its not in the picture, thats why. The emphasis here is more on the angled flight deck allowing aircraft to become airborne again without colliding with other planes on the carrier's flight deck than the it is about the wire; however, if enough people voice concern over the absence of the wire I suppose I could ask Anynobody and see if he would be willing to add it to the picture; IMHO though, I think the animation looks fine without it.

 * Oppose, the animation seems like unnecessary and distracting flash that doesn't add anything. I'd rather have a more detailed diagram of deck operations without animation. Plus, the image was only just added to the article, in a place where it doesn't seem to add very much.  Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 16:54, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose, I don't understand why this needs to be in animation either. Only one thing is happening... which looks like an airplane flying over the runway on an aircraft carrier.  If multiple things were happening maybe it would need an animation. gren グレン 21:17, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Support does a good job of illistrating how an angled flight deck works, although it should be placed either in angled flight deck or modified to show the differnce between carriers with angled flight decks and those without angled flight decks. 75.41.164.147 03:32, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Technically, we don't count the anon votes here, but thanks for the support anyway. FYI: it doesn't appear in the article angled deck cause there is no room there for it, and I have no idea how to make Gif's that would show a camparison. TomStar81 (Talk) 04:31, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose, animation not needed as the others have mentioned; is that why the resolution then suffers? -- Phoenix2  (talk, review) 03:41, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Pictogram voting oppose.svg|15px]] Oppose – Nothing special about this animation. Not FP standard. Sorry.  C e n t y  – [ reply ]• contribs  – 17:51, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
