GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
It is reasonably well written. a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): It is factually accurate and verifiable. a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism): It is broad in its coverage. a (major aspects): b (focused): It follows the neutral point of view policy. Fair representation without bias: It is stable. No edit wars, etc.: It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate. a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Pass/Fail:

Just some copy fixes and alt text and you're good to go. Didn't expect a GA on an individual plane, but here we are! 7-day hold for Styyx. Ping me when done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:52, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copy changes

In late 1980s → "In the late 1980s"
Done
"phased-out" should not be hyphenated
Done
Change contraction "would've" to "would have"
Done
option for further five → "option for a further five"
Done
Frequent problems with the aircraft include the reading light of a completely different passenger turning on when the button is pressed and the same issue also exists with the button used to call a crew member Add comma after "pressed". More: User:Sammi Brie/Commas in sentences
Done
re-configured and lay-out remove dashes
Done
There were initial speculations — "There was initial speculation"; this is not plural in English
Done
"sistership" is not one word in English, but the claim from [5] does check out that three other A340s from the order were used as restaurants and venues. I'd say "as had previously happened to three sister aircraft".
Done
The technicians also removed and re-installed all systems, and reset — another commas in sentences info, drop this comma. also, "reinstalled", no hyphen
Done
when many others are grounded — maybe "were" grounded? there's definitely a tense issue here
Done; also replaced "when" with "while".
Bora Erdin of pro-opposition newspaper Sözcü also added that the airline made "no clarification as to why the problematic plane [Deli Mike] was used persistently while unproblematic ones were on the ground", and pointed out to the frequent issue of the landing gear not retracting after take-off, causing the aircraft to return to the origin airport. Several items:

Remove comma after the quote (another commas in sentences issue)

Done

"and pointed out to" might be better parsed as "and highlighted"

Done

Takeoff is one word

Done

Source spot checks

I do not speak or read Turkish, so sources are being run through Google Translate to check. The four I chose do check out.

[5] Use of sister aircraft as restaurants: Checks out to source.
[7] Checks out for fleet overhaul/temporary grounding of some aircraft after a fall in demand
[10] Removal of livery
[11] Ferrying to Johannesburg

Other issues

References are archived.
Earwig has no issues whatsoever, owing to the exclusively non-English sourcing.
Images outside of the infobox need alt text. They all have permission or are otherwise freely licensed.
Added alt texts, only couldn't find anything the first one so it's now |alt=refer to caption.
