Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft#Infobox Aicraft consensus discussion

I have proposed changing the infobox image for the Dreamlifter away from the current backlit one in the talk page over a month ago. There is 1 clear vote against in the Talk Page, and another 1 or 2 implicit votes against due to the edit being reverted. Additional input or thoughts would be appreciated, as there has not been further discussion over there since.

I question the recent move of Hawaii Clipper to Pan Am Flight 229 by User:GalacticOrbits. While flight numbers may be more appropriate for loss of an aircraft of a model produced in significant numbers, the early trans-oceanic flying boats like Hawaii Clipper, and the circumstances of their loss, were better known by the aircraft names than by the flight number during which they were lost. I invite additional perspectives about which article name might be more appropriate. Thewellman (talk) 17:54, 20 March 2025 (UTC)

:I'd say this is appropriate, since the article is about the accident, not about the aircraft itself. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 19:37, 20 March 2025 (UTC)

:I decided to move the article, since, unlike the China Clipper article, which primarily focuses on the history of the aircraft and its respective milestones within aviation, with its loss as a secondary focus, the Hawaii Clipper article is more aligned towards the hull loss/disappearance of the frame, rather than the history of the aircraft (which in its current state has almost none). If that article can be expanded to include the rich background of the aircraft, I'm all in for moving it back to Hawaii Clipper. The article describing the Philippine Clipper is named Pan Am Flight V-1104 as well. Hence, I believe my move has been warranted. GalacticOrbits (talk) 06:12, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

:Agree that Hawaii Clipper would be a good title for an article about a specific aircraft, not about an event, such as a plane crash. There could be an argument to move the article to e.g. Disappearance of Hawaii Clipper; otherwise the current title is just fine. -- Deeday-UK (talk) 09:58, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

:* Agreed, use the aircraft's name for article covering its full history. The title needs to match the content of article, in other words. -Fnlayson (talk) 15:01, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Boeing has been selected for the Air Force's new fighter today. See Boeing F-47. Thanks for any help with this. -Fnlayson (talk) 16:02, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

It has been over four months since initial reports of the aircraft widely known as the J-36 began circulating online, along with several images of it, yet there are none in wikimedia to use. Due to the likely importance of this aircraft, we should focus on acquiring an image of it to put on the J-36 article as well as under the "China" section of the sixth gen fighter article.

:As I mentioned on the article talk page, experience with the J-20 article says any attempt to get a NFCC image until a free one is available is doomed to fail. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 08:47, 27 March 2025 (UTC)
