Okay, so thanks for coming along to take a look. First, I believe our goal should be to make all the articles about the pilots. Thus we need articles for:

1. Mike Mangold
2. Péter Besenyei
3. Kirby Chambliss
4. Klaus Schrodt
5. Nicolas Ivanoff
6. Nigel Lamb
7. Steve Jones (aviator)
8. Alejandro Maclean
9. Paul Bonhomme
10. Frank Versteegh
11. Michael Goulian

Lets get to work! One last thing, I will try and send round a weekly notice each Friday to keep everyone up to date. Please keep this and the project page on your watchlist. Cheers, --Hamedog_Talk|^@ 13:39, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That should not be too much of a problem. I will see whether I can take care of the Dutchie in a few minutes. SportsAddicted | discuss 14:02, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention. Badbilltucker 19:05, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a proposal to create an Aviation WikiProject, which would serve to clarify how all the aviation related projects relate, and help with interproject editing. See

Dear Lord, can you please reconsider the logo for this project immediately. For it is awful, and in no way complements the proposed quality of both the project and articles.
If you wish for myself to construct a new logo, for I am competent in various photo-editing software programs (Photoshop, iPhoto, Jasc Paintshop, etc.), then PLEASE do ask!
I would only be more than satisfied to do so, since I am sure it would improve the outlook on this article.
It is this website that claims "logo design is commonly believed to be one of the most important areas in graphic design, thus making it the most difficult to perfect. The logo, or brand, is not just an image, it is the embodiment of an organization. Because logos are meant to represent companies and foster recognition by consumers it is counterproductive to redesign logos often.".

With 20 related articles (according to the assesment), all either start or stub class, does this project need to be its own separate wikiproject, or can it be moved to a task force of the aviation project? Also, could someone sign up at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Coordinators to be this projects liason? - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 16:26, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changing to a task force. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 06:38, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is now a new page, Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Maintenance, that lists backlogged areas needing work, articles not covered under the assessment, etc. It is automatically updated by a bot daily. If your looking for something to do, check it out. If there is anything that you would like to see covered, let me know. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 23:59, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This task force is fairly quiet, and has a grand total of 21 articles in its scope. Since there are many articles in the air sports area that have no project to look after them, and since Red Bulls articles would fall under the air sports scope, does this task force object to being renamed and retasked as the Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Air sports task force? - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 09:31, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is a discussion and poll about project participation going on here. Please take a look and share your opinions. - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 22:46, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As many of you are aware from the invitations I sent out, there is a new contest starting in the Aviation project. If I somehow missed you, check out Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Contest. I created this contest for, what is provisionally titled The Peter M. Bowers International Award For Meritorious Service in the Pursuit of Aviation Knowledge or PeMBoInAwMeSPAK, with the aim to motivate increased quality in aviation articles and improve participation in the Aviation WikiProject by offering a form of friendly competition for project members. We already have 20 members signed up, if you would like to take part you can sign up here, read up on the rules here, and discuss the contest here. The first round of the competition will start soon; if you can't take part, come out and help the competitors by assisting in their peer reviews, article promotions, etc. Hope to see you there! - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 19:03, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As you may know, we currently have 400

Could someone in your task force please take a look at this article and see if you can help? I mistakenly tagged it for speedy deletion and am now trying to help the original editor as much as possible. However, I know absolutely nothing about model aircraft. Thank you.

Hi, there are several active discussions going at Talk:List of racing aircraft. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 13:50, 2 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

We – Community Tech – are happy to announce that the Popular pages bot is back up-and-running (after a one year hiatus)! You're receiving this message because your WikiProject or task force is signed up to receive the popular pages report. Every month, Community Tech bot will post at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Air sports task force/Popular pages with a list of the most-viewed pages over the previous month that are within the scope of WikiProject Aviation.

We've made some enhancements to the original report. Here's what's new:

• The pageview data includes both desktop and mobile data.
• The report will include a link to the pageviews tool for each article, to dig deeper into any surprises or anomalies.
• The report will include the total pageviews for the entire project (including redirects).

We're grateful to Mr.Z-man for his original Mr.Z-bot, and we wish his bot a happy robot retirement. Just as before, we hope the popular pages reports will aid you in understanding the reach of WikiProject Aviation, and what articles may be deserving of more attention. If you have any questions or concerns please contact us at m:User talk:Community Tech bot.

Warm regards, the Community Tech Team 17:16, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
