Air Canada edits[edit]

Recently you have made numerous good faith edits to the Air Canada article, some of which added unreferenced detail. I suggest you revisit those edits and provide appropriate references or delete the added detail. Your attention to the article is much appreciated. --Rosetown (talk) 04:25, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thx for the suggestion, may I point out that the edits I made, mainly expanding the lead, are all summarizing/rearranging existing information that is in the article body. Those areas likely would share the same references, which I may get around to if I have the time, but I am not the originator of those references. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 04:34, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies, I was too fast off the mark, and didn't properly peruse your many edits. Regards --Rosetown (talk) 05:55, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NowCommons: File[edit]

File:Mercedes S-Guard.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:MercedesS-Guardarmouredcar.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:MercedesS-Guardarmouredcar.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 16:06, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

LS article[edit]

I don't understand why press kits here on wikipedia are so frowned upon considering the press and media outlets get much of their information from them. I also think it's very important people find the information they are looking for rather than just ensure the article is in good standing at wikipedia. I understand that most don't want to read a lengthy article but some people such as myself and other car enthusiasts do appreciate and value knowing technical details on a topic. And I wonder has any automotive article reached Good Standing? Thanks 69.65.224.246 (talk) 03:48, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a list of articles which have reached good standing: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Automobiles#Example_articles You are certainly entitled to your opinion, and certainly you have valid points, but in my experience the guidelines have the final say. Any contributions that have longevity on this site need to abide by them or they will eventually get deleted by someone, particularly certain wiki editors who focus entirely on patrolling articles and enforcing guidelines. So in the end it's best to just work with them IMO. It is relatively easy to find a press release, but with some time spent reading reliable third-party references one can usually find the information from a neutral source. Otherwise one can look at for instance Audi and see that the use of press information makes the article suspect in the eyes of editors here. Regards SynergyStar (talk) 04:09, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I see your point. I removed the caps on all of the Toyota trademarks, there's really no point in leaving some but not others. I'll probably add a few more details to the LS section and more or less retire from wikipedia for the most part in the next week, there really isn't that much more I can think of adding. I have noticed some of the Audi and to a lesser extent Mercedes articles appear to be written by someone working at the company. 69.65.224.246 (talk) 15:07, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your help. If you later think of making more contributions, that would be appreciated; we need as many dedicated auto editors as possible. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 17:02, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, you wouldn't mind copying the relevant paragraph on these new unique options to the talk page or some other location where I could check it over? I've never made a purchase on Amazon, or I'd check the page preview there. Guessing search keywords to try and find a sentence from pg. 184 gets a little old. Nevard (talk) 03:18, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I quoted the sentence in the reference for your convenience: "Additional options include: climate control front seats, parking sonar, power sunroof, power seats with memory, power rear sunshade, air purifier, rear seat heat and massage, power door closers, and dual level heated seats. Lexus incorporated the new technology to make driving the LS 430 more comfortable and pleasurable. Even with the navigation system and high end audio, the controls were still easy to operate. Apart from the Mark Levinson stereo, many of these items had been options in Japan for several years (a number could be found on the Celsior)." Thus the preceding referred to the power sunshade, adjustable seats, power door closers etc. The sentence states just that they have been found on prior JDM cars; this likely reflects the chauffeured JDM market for cars such as the Century, President etc. SynergyStar (talk) 03:25, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Cheers- I did have concerns with the implications that these features had been provided for the first time in the world by Toyota in the Japanese market (rather than previously only been provided in the Century, Crown, Celsior but not in the LS)- but I can't find any such statement in the current text. Nice work. Nevard (talk) 15:34, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No problemo, glad to help. SynergyStar (talk) 07:13, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GA Reassessment[edit]

I have done the GA Reassessment of theLexus article as part of the GA Sweeps project. I have found the article to be great and meet all the WP:GA Criteria except for several dead links in the reference section. I am notifying you as the primary editor of this. I have placed the article on hold for a week pending fixes of these references. If you need more time or if you have any questions please contact me on my talk page. H1nkles (talk) 17:19, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings H1nkles, thanks for conducting the GA sweeps reassessment of Lexus. In accordance with your suggestions, I've replaced the defunct links. Thanks again for your guidance. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 23:23, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An exciting opportunity to get involved![edit]

As a member of the Aviation WikiProject or one of its subprojects, you may be interested in testing your skills in the Aviation Contest! I created this contest, not to pit editor against editor, but to promote article improvement and project participation and camraderie. Hopefully you will agree with its usefulness. Sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the contest may not start until September 1st-unless a large number of editors signup and are ready to compete immediately!

Service awards proposal[edit]

Master Editor Hello, SynergyStar! I noticed you display a service award, and would like to invite you to join the discussion over a proposed revamping of the awards.

If you have any opinions on the proposal, please participate in the discussion. Thanks! — the Man in Question (in question) 04:12, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You realize of course that the citation/bibliography templates have many bugs including the listing of coauthors, that is why many experienced editors have abandoned the template system entirely. FWiW 02:32, 24 January 2010 (UTC).

Ah, thanks for the info. The switch to templates was merely in response to suggestions made by the GA and FA reviews. I did some research/testing and was able to format the templates used to allow listing of coauthors in first name, last name order, while linked, just as in the web citations.

Request for an eyes-over[edit]

Hi SynergyStar,

I'm currently tending to the History of British Airways article, which I've nominated as a FAC, I was hoping as you've previously put aviation articles up to FA status you might have the time to point out anything to help improve the article; this is my first FAC ever, so I'm still learning quite a bit of the new guidelines and rules differing from the GAN process I'm more familiar with. What assistance you can bring will be much appreciated.

Thanks, Kyteto (talk) 17:23, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the invitation and message! Having worked on the British Airways article history section and other areas, I'm pleased to see how the History article has improved. I'll give it a closer read as soon as I can and make comments. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 18:37, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding this edit: please see User:MiszaBot/Archive HowTo, which states:

The bot expects to see only one parameter per line. The closing }} must be on its own line. There must be no leading spaces before the pipes. If you drop out the newlines used in the above example, e.g. by wrapping the template invocation onto a single line, the bot may not do what you expect.

Invitation[edit]

Hello User:SynergyStar, You and a number of others, are invited by User:Sp33dyphil to help him cleanup and significantly improve the articles that he’d edited and will edit. The articles involved are airline alliances, such as SkyTeam, Oneworld and Star Alliance. He will be improving and expanding shoe and clothes manufacturing companies, namely Puma AG, Addidas and Nike, Inc.. Airline articles will also be edited, along with Australian rules football and related clubs. You do not nee’ to know these subjects; but you could help

  • copyedit the articles, as well as improving the English in the involved further.
  • format the references by inserting citation templates. Please go to WP:CITET, or go to his contributions page to see how he has been carrying out this job.
  • add appropriate and relevant pictures and media deemed necessary.
  • merge and tighten paragraphs. Since there are numerous one- and two-sentence paragraphs, merging these together helps editors afterwards add information.
  • wikification.

Please disregard the following section if you are busy. Only concentrate on the jobs above.

If you have time, you could further help by:

  • adding pictures/media of the involved subjects to Wiki Commons.
  • bringing together quotes regarding those who direct or hold significant relationships with organisations such as Greenpeace, SkyTeam, Oneworld, Star Alliance, Puma AG, Adidas, Nike, Inc. and Australian rules football/soccer clubs.
  • finding press releases, news articles, etc. for Star Alliance and Vietnam Airlines, which don’t have a lot of information during their early days.

Once you have embarked on the activities above, please drop User:Sp33dyphil a message at his user page.

And of course, if you have any jobs for Sp33dyphil, just drop him a message.


Please distribute this message among other Wikipedians

Thx. SynergyStar (talk) 00:39, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Boeing 767 request[edit]

Hey SynergyStar! Hope you are doing well in early 2011. If you have time and the interest, could you help with improvements on the Boeing 767 article. The article is undergoing a peer review now and we're trying to make changes and fix things. If you can't help or something, that's fine too. Take care. -fnlayson (talk) 00:01, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the well wishes!!! Very kind invitation, I'll try to pitch in when I can. Best, SynergyStar (talk) 19:57, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Appreciate what you're doing. Earlier today, I started editing in between your edits and saw repeated images and removed a couple. I tried to go back and fix. I'll try to stay out of the way while you are doing edits. I'll try to add reference to the accident entries that need it. That seems to be the last area needing references. -fnlayson (talk) 02:46, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your encouragement and support!!! I've given the article some polishing, keeping in mind the peer review's comments on photo variety, plus using the FA examples. Looking better; after the refs are aligned for format and consistency, and the hull loss list condensed or split, the article may be ready for GAR. SynergyStar (talk) 06:16, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Great thanks for the cleanup that you did. I've done some reference formatting myself. I hope we can give this article a GA-status in two/three days. Any suggestions of what I should do to further improve it? Sp33dyphil (Talk) (Contributions)(I love Wikipedia!) 00:56, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks to you too for all your efforts to improve the article!!! I'm making suggestions on the talk page. Regards SynergyStar (talk) 02:23, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey the 767 received GA yesterday. :) Thanks for the hard work referencing, adding details and so forth. -Fnlayson (talk) 01:32, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Airbus A330[edit]

I've done a lot of expansion to Airbus A330. I now need someone to help me polish it for WP:FAC, so I though you might interested. Sp33dyphil (Talk) (Contributions)(I love Wikipedia!) 06:02, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try to chip in where I can. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 09:05, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I've read the article, it has undergone a major expansion, great work!!! Right now it looks to have a number of dedicated editors who are helping out. A good template may be the GA-class Airbus A380, which I've worked on. Currently the article seems to be in good hands for further improvements. Regarding the referencing templates issue, I've had experience with that and wish to stay out of further debates (IIRC on Boeing 777 there was the cite web template, then it was completely removed one-by-one, then cite book added, harv refs, etc., and argued about).
In my experience there are many article reviews where the use of templates is suggested, but it's not always agreed on, and it seems to me that the main point is consistency throughout the article, of whatever system is being used. SynergyStar (talk) 20:27, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Do you mind popping into the article to see anything's wrong with it; it's close to the FA-status. Also, I can't seem to figure out an alt text for the carbon brake picture. Thanks Sp33dyphil (TC • I love Wikipedia!) 06:42, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Please excuse the delayed reply, I have been very busy. Checked out the alt text for the carbon brake and it seems to be added, usually it's just a description of the picture itself, no need to repeat the caption portion (reason why carbon brakes are favoured).

Great review[edit]

Agree with almost all of your upgrades. Very shrewd and helpful prose upgrades. And I cut the panorama.

Except, I think the last thing we need is more in flight images of the airplane.  :-)

TCO (talk) 20:05, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Glad to help, even though I'm rather swamped at the moment I thought that the article could benefit from those suggestions. The panorama picture is very nice, detailed and rich, I'd be tempted to keep it except maybe on a factory or city article. Other images are up to the editor(s)...thanks for all your hard work improving the article! Best regards, SynergyStar (talk) 06:51, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're a good man. Really like those picture upgrades. Thing is really starting to look crisp in layout and organization.

I kinda don't agree with Sandy that the article makes or breaks on how many "howevers" she can find. It's definitely not a complete mess, and is largely very smooth. Sure, we can find some small things like that. But in the past, she has resisted the characterization that FA is mostly about MOS dash rules and extremely fine prose reviews. That we should and do look at the content (comprehensiveness and emphasis and story). So I really don't think the article should live or die on that. But of course, it's fine to work on it and why not improve it.

I think the main problem from a "civilian" standpoint is making sense of all the letters and numbers and terms. Some of that is indemic to he subject. Yet, it has improved a lot over the past few weeks. I think the more we can do on that front, the more we make major improvement to the article.

In that vein, I think the first two sections of the article, read a little too much as a mystery story and too confusing with the co-evolution of the 330, 340 (and even 320) out of the 300. I think some of this is because the text was similar in both articles. The other thing is the variuous terms changing over time (e.g. TA-9). Think a little stronger topic sentence structure at the front would alleviate the reader who has to wade several paras to find out that the TA-9 we've been hearing about becomes the 330. The other thing that would be great would be some simple flow chart or timeline (probably easiest displayed centered and wide, on top of background, that lists the different names and versions. Just an aid for the reader if he forgets what a TA-9 or a B-10 is.

I'm gonna stay out of it, as I've done enough and I really think it better now for me to do so. but just had to share the thoughts.

Again...really starting to look sharp. I've read the other plane FAs and think this one would be a good addition to the fleet!TCO (talk) 22:51, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again for your diligence. It's a a unique challenge to make an aviation article accessible to the general public.  I agree that the narrative could be made clearer and a diagram sounds like a great idea.  The review process for this article has now taken over one month which is rather long from past experience.  Sometimes I feel that before the nomination is listed, particularly after recent failures, there can be a more thorough preparation.  Otherwise it can seem somewhat rough and there isn't enough time to polish the article.  However a lot of progress often occurs with these types of reviews. I still think that given that the past reviews were only a month or two ago some reviewers may be jaded by seeing the nomination be submitted again so soon. Still everyone is trying to make the best judgment. Best SynergyStar (talk) 23:58, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't get Tony, Wehwalt, Malleus, or Mike (prose superstars) to proof it. So I am going over it again. Actually, am finding a lot of Sandy's complaints and am fixing them. Should be a lot of rivets sanded down when I get done. I did make the diagram as well. (Of course now I understand the danged plane also...I am "general public"...but after messing with it, ya learn.) Did not realize that the thing had been up a month ago.TCO (talk) 00:28, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you![edit]

The Special Barnstar
You did it again! Thanks to your work on Boeing 767. I'm astounded by your massive additions of text, some of which you added in one go. Wow After looking at your work, I'm got quite excited about the prospects of a readable and high-quality encyclopedia. I hope you're planning to promote the article to FA status, because I think your effort is really worthy of the Star. To spread the Wikilove, like what I'm doing now, please award someone who is worthy of one a barnstar. Thanks a lot. Sp33dyphil "Ad astra" 01:02, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again, I'm humbled by your honor. SynergyStar (talk) 22:50, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Any future plans?[edit]

Hi Synergy, I'm posting this message out of curiosity regarding any future plans you might have for the encyclopedia. As you might be aware of, the last two months saw a large number of aircraft articles being promoted to GA status, *partly* because of my effort. At the same time, I see that you're working on Boeing 757 ATM. I'm beginning to slow down the process of expanding articles to GA status, and have instead focused on working on articles that are already GA status with the ultimate aim of seeing them to FA status.

There are two points I'd like to ask you:

  1. if, you have any intentions at all, what articles (besides Boeing 757) would you like to expand on before nominating them for GA status, and
  2. what aviation-related sources (books, DVDs, magazines, etc.) you have access to. The reason why I'm asking this is because I'm wondering if you and I have common sources so we could work on a particular article. I have access to a large book collection, including the Warbird Tech and Airliner Tech series, in addition to X Secret Project books by Tony Buttler. Any comments? Do you think this collaboration would work at all? Sp33dyphil "Ad astra" 09:25, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your diligent efforts! Yes, there are quite a few GAs now for the project. Right now I'm working on 757, and plan on GA nomination shortly. Aside from that, I'm not planning on further GA noms for the near future...perhaps airline articles or some other topic area could be a later focus. Additionally, 767 which is already GA, could be improved further. As for sources, I usually try to find them at area libraries or online. I have read several of the Airliner Tech series, which is a good resource for several jetliners such as 747-400 and L-1011. For now though, I'm taking it slow, usually an article at a time, particularly as detailed improvements can be painstaking. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 18:36, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your reply. I think the best way to go is to GAN 757, before working on the L-1011. I have a book about the Airbus A340, so I think it'll be pretty handy if you decide to work on it. As for timescale, do you have any ideas? Sp33dyphil "Ad astra" 23:01, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

767[edit]

Hi, I left a few comments at WP:GOCE/FA. I went through the first few sections a few days ago, and a little less thoroughly today. The long and the short of it is that it's not perfect, but I don't think there's anything there (in terms of prose and MoS compliance) that would be a major concern at FAC. I can go over the entire article with a fine-toothed comb if you'd like me to, but I'd recommend biting the bullet and nominating it at FAC. If prose concerns are raised, I'll help you address them, but I'd be very surprised if there was anything not easily dealt with (you've done it before, so I'm sure you know what to expect). Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 01:16, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dear HJ Mitchell, thank you for your diligent efforts! I hope the article didn't bore you too much. :) Anyhow, I think your suggestion sounds like a good approach, with further discussion in the FAC process. After giving the article a re-examination today, I think the lead can be improved (I find this among the most difficult of aircraft articles due to the technical jargon and trivia/numbers), which I am working on now; probably during FAC some improvements to the prose/flow will occur as well.
On a procedural note, during the FAC if suggestions/requests "to do a copy-edit first" come up, I guess I should mention that it was given an examination by guild members, or point to the WP:GOCE/FA page, in lieu of {{GOCE|}} tags.
Thanks again! SynergyStar (talk) 09:15, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I found it quite interesting, and I'm sure there are many readers who enjoy it. Let me know when you nominate it at FAC, and I'll add it to my watchlist. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 12:08, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good, thanks for the advice. Regards, SynergyStar (talk) 02:29, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Main page appearance: Boeing 777[edit]

This is a note to let the main editors of Boeing 777 know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on June 12, 2012. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/June 12, 2012. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs) or his delegate Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests.

If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Boeing 777-200 of United Airlines

The Boeing 777 is a long-range, wide-body, twin-engine jet airliner manufactured by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. It is the world's largest twinjet and is commonly referred to as the "Triple Seven". The aircraft has seating for over 300 passengers and has a range from 5,235 to 9,380 nautical miles (9,695 to 17,372 km), depending on model. Its distinguishing features include the largest-diameter turbofan engines of any aircraft, six wheels on each main landing gear, a circular fuselage cross-section, and blade-shaped tail cone. Developed in consultation with eight major airlines, the 777 was designed to replace older wide-body airliners and bridge the capacity difference between the 767 and 747. As Boeing's first fly-by-wire airliner, it has computer mediated controls; it is also the first entirely computer-designed commercial aircraft.(more...)

Please accept a belated thank you for the well wishes upon my retirement as FAC delegate, and apologies for the false alarm of my first—and hopefully last—retirement; the well wishes extended me were most kind, but I decided to return, re-committed, when another blocked sock was revealed as one of the factors aggravating the FA pages this year.

Maintaining standards in featured content requires vigilance, dedication and knowledge of people like you, who are needed; reviews are always welcome at FAC, FAR and TFA requests. Somehow, somehow we never ever seem to do nothin' completely nice and easy, but here's hoping that 2013 will see a peaceful road ahead and a return to the quality and comaraderie that defines the FA process, with the help of many dedicated Wikipedians!

The blurb as it stands now is below:

A Boeing 767-300

The Boeing 767 is a mid-size, wide-body twin-engine jet airliner built by Boeing Commercial Airplanes. It was the manufacturer's first wide-body twinjet and its first airliner with a two-crew glass cockpit. The aircraft features two turbofan engines, a conventional tail, and for reduced aerodynamic drag, a supercritical wing design. Designed as a smaller wide-body airliner than preceding aircraft such as the 747, the 767 has a capacity of 181 to 375 persons and a design range of 3,850 to 6,385 nautical miles (7,130 to 11,825 km), depending on variant. The original 767-200 entered service in 1982, followed by the 767-300 in 1986 and the 767-400ER, an extended-range variant, in 2000. Versions for freight and military use have also been created. The aircraft was initially flown on domestic and transcontinental routes, before becoming the first twin-engined airliner to receive regulatory approval for extended overseas flights. In 1986, Boeing initiated studies for a higher-capacity 767, ultimately leading to the development of the 777, a larger wide-body twinjet. In the 1990s, the 767 became the most frequently used airliner for transatlantic flights between North America and Europe. (Full article...)

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Lexus Balance ad.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Lexus Balance ad.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:14, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
