Criteria for List of Delta Air Line accidents and incidents
Given that there are so few page watchers at List of Delta Air Line accidents and incidents, I am requesting feedback regarding the list criteria here: Template:Slink. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:55, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

IP editor adding ticketing systems to interline airlines sections
Template:IP user has added "Hahn Air" (hahnair.com) and APG Airlines to a bunch of interlining agreements sections of hundreds of airline articles, e.g. see this edit diff on Virgin Australia. They both appear to be some sort of multi-airline ticketing system/travel agent website. They've done 126 edits on en-wiki over the past 24 hours and I've only reverted a few of them.

- Sorry for that its because i focus mainly in adding interline and codeshare agreements in airline articles and i use as source mainly news articles about new codeshare and interline agreements (i am a good faith editor and i am not using wikipedia for promotional things) and i didint knew it was promotional so sorry for that also my ip changed best regards.

Aircraft variants
What are peoples feelings on links to aircraft variants in articles? I feel that as Wikipedia is a general encyclopedia, (Wikipedia:Purpose) and not primarily aimed at the enthusiast, links should go to the head of the aircraft article rather than somewhere else on the page.
Compare for example de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter#DHC-6 Series 200 (all it says is "Improved version.") and de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter or Boeing 727#727-200 and Boeing 727. The Twin Otter is one of the worst examples, but I've seen that link put in an airline article.
It is possible to have both links set up such as "they fly [[de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter]] ([[de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter#DHC-6 Series 200|Series 200]]) and [[Boeing 727]] ([[Boeing 727#727-200|200 series]])" which gives "they fly de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter (Series 200) and Boeing 727 (200 series)".
By linking to the variant without a link to the main body of the article it's a disservice to the general reader. I think we sometimes forget that not everybody shares the same knowledge or enthusiasm for various aircraft. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 05:06, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
