Grammar on FedEx Express article

Referring to “The Memphis International Airport” or “The Indianapolis International Airport” is not grammatically correct in English. It should be simply “Memphis International Airport”, as a proper noun referring to a specific place. RedundancyAdvocate (talk) 08:42, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Eurofighter GmbH. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. RedundancyAdvocate (talk) 08:48, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@RedundancyAdvocate How exactly were my edits unconstructive? In my opinion, I changed the prose to be easier to read and understand. You apparently disagree, and that's okay. But we need to assume good faith when interacting with other editors. I feel it's unfair to accuse me of making unconstructive edits when my over 15 years of experience making over 33 thousand edits would show that I am just attempting to help the project, just like I assume you are. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 18:18, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies, the warn was intended to mention the FedEx Express article. See the topic above this on this page. RedundancyAdvocate (talk) 20:45, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@RedundancyAdvocate A grammar disagreement does not warrant an unconstructive edits warning. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 23:44, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It is not a grammar disagreement, rather it is a grammar error on your part that I must now take the time to go and undo manually. RedundancyAdvocate (talk) 18:29, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

JetBlue focus cities

Hi. Hope you are well. I recalled the discussion over focus cities and operating bases here. As mentioned, JetBlue's Form 10-K lists "New York" as a focus city, but includes multiple New York–area airports as part of its description (emphasizing JFK the most). I noticed that since that discussion, Newark and LaGuardia have been added in the infoboxes of the airline and the airports as JetBlue focus cities.

JetBlue's Form 10-K description of New York includes Westchester County Airport (White Plains) in the same way it does Newark and LaGuardia. Would it be apt to include White Plains as a focus city as well? It seems as strongly sourced as Newark and LaGuardia would be. Precision123 (talk) 18:46, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the KC Water Taxi- you were right, official policy is that you're supposed to have a reduced fare card to get a senior discount. In practice, that's not true, so I didn't realize that was official policy. Thanks for the correction. FPTI (talk) 02:42, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

February 2024

Hey,

you changed the maximum seating of the 737MAX 8 to "188 or 202". That figures are for the 2-class config. But in the specifications table of the 737 MAX article the maximum seating is required: so the max. seating of a 1 class config. And that is 210 according to the stated source. 80.187.75.243 (talk) 03:28, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So here’s my understanding… it’s 189 when configured as a MAX 8. That number goes up to 202 when configured as a MAX 200, which has mid-exit door. These doors are optional, which leads to the two different maximum seatings. Compare that to the MAX 9, which is always equipped with a door opening, but which can be plugged by an operator if they desire. The 210 maximum seats is new… but it’s on Boeing’s website. RickyCourtney (talk) 05:51, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright. Both figures are sourced now.

The 210 are sourced by https://www.boeing.com/commercial/737
The also given archive link confirms, that the 210 was stated on Boeing website in 2021 already.

And actually Boeing stated the figure 210 already in 2019: https://web.archive.org/web/20190405003324/https://www.boeing.com/commercial/737max/

Planespotters as a reliable source

Unfortunately in disagreeing so strongly about the edit [[1]] you reverted you are pitting yourself against a lot of discussion that says the opposite. Mostly available here [[2]].

In saying it is all OK because there is an error correction mechanism on planespotters just proves that the site has a non RS compatable user driven component.

Charter Tags

Hi Ricky, You’ll probably see I undid all your edits adding the “Public Charter” tags. Per WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT, it states “Do not include ad-hoc, irregular, or private charter services.” So we only include public charters under the “Charter:” tag. Thus, adding “public” is not necessary. If you are adamant about the change, I’d recommend bringing it up to the airports project.

DMS

Is there a compelling reason to force DMS coordinate display, like in this edit? I don't think that most CA railway station articles use DMS - most that I see use decimal degrees, which are more intuitive to non-technical readers. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 23:46, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pi.1415926535 No, I was just under the impression that most use DMS. I don't really care, just trying to bring some consistency. Frankly, I believe neither are intuitive to non-technical readers.
While we're chatting... I disagree with showing Chatsworth with the Metrolink signage. It also has plenty of Metro signage and a small amount of Amtrak signage. I agree that it's mostly Metrolink on the rail platform, but IMHO, it's just easier/better to go with the generic style.
-- RickyCourtney (talk) 23:55, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, there's not any way to present coordinates simpler than decimal degrees, unfortunately. Unless there's ever a discussion with consensus to mass-convert coordinate formats, I'd say just leave them whatever format they already are.
I see your point about the multiple signages. I strongly prefer using a style - the colored bars make the infobox more readable, and I like the consistency with other articles - but I'm not sure how much of that is just personal preference. The signage on the rail platforms seems to be primarily Metrolink, which is why I prefer keeping that style. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 00:10, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Boeing Crew Flight Test shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Redraiderengineer (talk) 19:24, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see no evidence of edit warring here. The only other editor that made more than one edit to this article on July 12 is now blocked, so this issue is non-substantial. Jackdude101 talk cont 04:58, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disney Transport Template

There were some additional edits not affecting the width of the Disney Transport template made within the past few days that you reverted along with everything else, such as an enlarge template for a brand-new station layout template I made for the TTC. I'm assuming you didn't notice them, or else you would not have done that. Anyway, if you want the width reduced more, we could get rid of the Disney Direct (employee only/blue) bus routes like how I had it in the past when I first created the whole thing years ago, though that would make the coverage for Lynx incomplete. Perhaps we should add a note to the template page specifying the scope, which in my mind is every location on WDW property covered by Disney Transport and Lynx. The only exception is the Shades of Green Resort, which is an oddball one that was originally built by Disney. Getting rid of that one won't reduce the width, BTW, as there will still be an outer elevated edge for the monorail occupying the same space. Jackdude101 talk cont 00:22, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for deleting more than the routeboxes. I’d argue that all routes that are not accessible to guests are out of scope and be deleted. RickyCourtney (talk) 01:14, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Your argument is actually 100% compatible with how the template is now. As opposed to the Disney Direct (blue) Lynx routes, which are designed specifically for employees, the regular (purple and orange) Lynx routes are for the general public, and every location with a blue route also has at least one purple route or something from Disney Transport. Jackdude101 talk cont 01:43, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But including Disney University? Having 7 routeboxes? Wikipedia is not a travel guide. I also feel strange about having all these bus only destinations. Most templates like this only show fixed, permanent guideway routes. Bus routes can change quickly. Fixed guideways can’t. RickyCourtney (talk) 01:51, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm meeting you halfway and got rid of all the routeboxes, but kept the singular Lynx icons. Disney-related transportation is anything but normal (railroad crossings with roller coaster swing bridges, riverboats interchanging with gondola lifts, etc.). Jackdude101 talk cont 02:25, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It’s better. I’d also say that the cast centers and shades of green should come off as they’re not open to the public, therefore it’s not really important for the broad audience of Wikipedia to know about them. Also, ESPN WWOS has pretty irregular service unlike the other bus locations. RickyCourtney (talk) 02:37, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a "yes and no" situation with the general public having access to Shades of Green. On the one hand, you need to be working directly with the DoD or be active US military to be eligible to stay, but on the other hand, you can get that requirement waived a number of ways, so it depends on how strictly you define "general public." If it's a question of notability, besides having its own article, it's one of only five such resorts in the world run by the US DoD, and the only one in the continental US. And as I mentioned before, it was originally a Disney-owned resort named "Disney Inn." Jackdude101 talk cont 03:07, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Here’s another reason: Shades of Green isn’t served by the Disney buses. They’re contractors. That makes it just as notable as say the Bonnet Creek, Disney Springs or Flamingo Crossings hotels. RickyCourtney (talk) 03:21, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, Bonnet Creek and Flamingo Crossings are on the edge of the WDW property, but not within it, so they would never be included regardless. The third-party Disney Springs hotels are on property, but they weren't built by Disney. Shades of Green is on property and was originally built by Disney, so it's not quite the same as the others. Also, for the record, Disney buses do serve the cast member parking lots. Buses with marquees like "VIP Cast Member" or "Special" will likely go to them. It's true that these places are not things that the general public would see on a typical Disney trip, but that's precisely why I'm interested in including them. I want to establish that, despite the facade that Disney puts in front of everyone, there's more to the resort than what they want you to see. Jackdude101 talk cont 03:47, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It’s already a huge route map template. Removing Shades of Green and the cast centers lets us slim width by one column and two rows. It doesn’t seem like a big sacrifice to me. RickyCourtney (talk) 03:55, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, deleting the two cast member parking lots would decrease the rows by two, but we'd still have seven columns if we got rid of Shades of Green. Even if there were no resorts in that column, the monorail's outermost edge on the left barely occupies that first column. Without Shades of Green, it would appear to the naked eye that there's an unused first column, and would lead to a lot of inexperienced editors trying (and failing) to correct that. I promise you there's no way to reduce the columns further than what you see now. Jackdude101 talk cont 04:08, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The width can be reduced a little more if each line with text in parentheses is split like it was originally. You made them all single lines a few years ago, so I want to hear your thoughts on that. Jackdude101 talk cont 13:24, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The splits are flawed. They look okay on desktop browsers. However they make the text unreadable on mobile browsers, where the vast majority of Wikipedia’s readers access the site. RickyCourtney (talk) 15:04, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
