Speedy deletion nomination of File:Boeing 737 MAX 10X rendering.jpeg

A tag has been placed on

section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. sl (talk) 04:21, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's orphaned because you removed it from the page where it was shown, catch-22. You can address the fair use claim in File:Bombardier BRJ-X.jpg, but avoid spurious means.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 10:11, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Passport picture (GE)

Hi Marc, how is File:General Electric Passport.jpg eligible for fair use? Thanks. BilCat (talk) 16:48, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, because there are no free substitutes yet? The possible alternative, File:EBACE 2019, Le Grand-Saconnex (EB190269).jpg, is captioned as an "engineering model", not a real engine. Besides, the promo picture gives a better understanding of the engine architecture (large fan in front of a small core for a high bypass) than a picture of a blower ahead of a black cylinder.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 17:46, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks. I don't know if the wonks or the lawyers will accept it, but it makes sense to me. BilCat (talk) 18:00, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting of changes in 747-400

Please desist with reverting my changes. If you wish to make a change, then please do so. Please do not revert my changes and sourcing while saying that I "must" gain consensus per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:BRD As mentioned in the first line, this is an optional method of gaining consensus, and not at all required. Please do not make me seek admin intervention. It seems you have been involved in a few incidents already. 100.14.84.144 (talk) 01:07, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) IP10o.xxx, your bold changes have been challenged. It's up to you to seek a consensus to add it back to the article, not edit war to keep it because you disagree with the remover's rationale. Yes, BRD is optional, but it's a good option when the alternative is that you'll be blocked and/or the the article will be protected to prevent your continued disruptions. You've been warned now, and will be reported if you restore it again. BilCat (talk) 01:51, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

737 Max

Hi Marc. Thanks for this and I am sorry if I have been clueless there. Does your edit imply that other mile distances in the article should therefore come out? I think I can see quite a few others (at least 9 I believe), but I also don't think that as a clearly INexpert editor in the field I should be wading in too much! What do you think? Hope it's nice in Nantes today, cheers DBaK (talk) 13:06, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DBaK, don't be sorry, there is no need to know every intricacy of every field! I went ahead and removed the other statute miles figures to keep only the nautical miles. Nice here if a bit chilly, thanks!--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:06, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thank you so much! Keep warm, (ah yes, a degree or two warmer than us here in London!) cheers, DBaK (talk) 09:03, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Both units abbreviated

Bringing this here to not get the other discussion off topic.

You said “My preference would be both units abbreviated”.

WP:UNITS

is very clear on this point:

In prose, unit names should be given in full if used only a few times, but symbols may be used when a unit (especially one with a long name) is used repeatedly, after spelling out the first use (e.g. Up to 15 kilograms of filler is used for a batch of 250 kg).

Where space is limited, such as in tables, infoboxes, parenthetical notes, and mathematical formulas, unit symbols are preferred.

So, granted, I probably went too far in the direction of using the unit names on every usage, but using unit symbols exclusively is not Wikipedia style. --RickyCourtney (talk) 13:36, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

RickyCourtney Indeed, using the full name first and abbreviations thereafter seems the most reasonable usage.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 13:41, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, to be clear, the guidelines state that the unit symbol should be used when usage is repeated. So the default should be to use the full unit name, except when they’d be used in quick succession. I’d say once within a section would be a good guideline, but once per page wouldn’t be correct. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 13:46, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use File:Rolls-Royce ACCEL.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Rolls-Royce ACCEL.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to
Di-replaceable fair use disputed
|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Vanilla Unmanned (March 5)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CNMall41 was:

in-depth
(not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)

reliable

secondary

strictly independent
of the subject
Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
The comment the reviewer left was:
The company would not meet
WP:ORGCRIT
.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Vanilla Unmanned and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Dassault Falcon 30

Hi Marc, does fr:Dassault Falcon 30 have enough cited content to add to our Dassault Falcon 20 article? I don't know if it's worth trying to create a separate article for it on English Wikipedia. (I'm just asking for your opinion, and not asking you to do the work.) See Talk:Dassault Aviation#Falcon 30 for another users question about it. Looking into it, I realized we have very little info about it on English Wikipedia. Thanks. BilCat (talk) 00:33, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Skyworks VertiJet

Hi Marc, do you think the Skyworks Vejetrti is the same thing as the
Skyworks VertiJet? I could go either way, but I wanted your opinion first. Thanks. BilCat (talk) 17:13, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply
]

Hi! It seems to be the same aircraft: The VertiJet is an adaption of a combination of the British Rotodyne and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA-USA) Skyworks Heliplane, and Skyworks Aeronautics is formerly Groen Brothers Aviation. The article could be renamed but the redirect seems also OK as it is still a paper project. Cheers,--Marc Lacoste (talk) 21:21, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
