Bell 533
Needs a look from the project before moving on to GA-Review. --Born2flie (talk) 04:21, 15 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Looks ok to me. The operational history section is good, but the development and design section is really lacking. I'm thinking that the development/design section could use a good summary/explanation of the different configurations. Then when you're going into the operational history you're talking about what happened and in what order, not some much the details of each config. -SidewinderX (talk) 11:41, 22 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Nimbus

Just had a quick look through for you, excuse the bullet points:


 * Lead could be expanded with another paragraph, currently has no timeframe (although it is in the infobox).
 * Many linked dates in the text, generally frowned upon if they are not 'germane' to the subject. We can link to just the year in the infobox though using the avyear template which it is not at the moment.
 * Some figures missing metric conversions (mainly engine thrusts).
 * Wikilinking - The following words could benefit from being wikilinked: Collective, autorotational, lift, fuselage, rotor, envelope, drag, fiberglass.
 * Images - Looks like they could all be transferred to Commons, they certainly look for that at FA review, alt text would need to be added for FA but not for GA I assume.
 * Specifications section missing.
 * I wondered what happened to it, the answer is there but a bit hidden, an 'Aircraft on display' section could be justified. Is it in a museum that we have an article on?

Might all sound negative but I hope that helps, cheers. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by)   17:13, 30 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I'm working on those. There does not seem to be enough content for an Aircraft on display section.  The museum at Fort Eustis is the U.S. Army Transportation Museum.  I can't find a mention for the Bell 533 on the museum's site now though. -Fnlayson (talk) 21:26, 30 October 2009 (UTC)


 * No worries, personally I create 'display' and 'survivor' sections in the engine articles even if it is just a couple of words as it can be found in seconds through the table of contents, no one has questioned it so far. Wonder if the 533 is in storage? Museums do that sometimes just to mess wiki articles up!! Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by)   22:00, 30 October 2009 (UTC)


 * OK, the links and unit conversions were added. For a specs section, only a certain configuration could be listed.  There's data for the YH-40 they started with, but not enough data, like weights on the versions of the 533.  It could just be that the Transportation Museum's web site is not that complete.  Yes, the lead can be lengthened, at least a sentence on the configurations.  -Fnlayson (talk) 15:55, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
