ATL Airport number of gates

Good morning. How many gates total does ATL have? The article says 209 gates, but click on the reference icon which goes to the ATL Fact Sheet which says 192 gates.This is a large discrepancy and the wiki page Gates section should be adjusted to match the Fact Sheet page data.This is a difference of 17 gates.Hope this can be resolved. Thank you and have a good day.2601:581:8500:949C:B123:E549:142:175D (talk) 12:49, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Early History of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport

I found an interesting article about an early history on what's now the modern Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport from Atlanta Journal-Constitution: AJC Deja News: Atlanta gets new aero landing place (1919) Rjluna2 (talk) 21:53, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Timeline of the Atlanta Airport

Here is an interesting timeline of the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport at the end of the article can be found at Is race at play in Atlanta airport takeover bid? Rjluna2 (talk) 14:05, 20 April 2019 (UTC)

Runway usage

The analysis of runway usage seems to misunderstand the source that's referenced. In that source, each weather condition (visual, marginal, instrument, low instrument) says that the airport has two directional flows, and that both flows are used with each category of conditions. For example, the source says "ATL has two primary directional traffic flows. The airport operates in variations of this configuration approximately 66% of the time in Visual weather conditions (totaling 56% annually)." As with any airport, the choice of weather to operate west-bound or east-bound is made based largely on the wind, not the general weather conditions, but this is not how it's explained currently in the article. --Bigpeteb (talk) 22:39, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

No comments after 10 months, so I fixed it and replaced it with something more accurate and insightful. --Bigpeteb (talk) 00:56, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

Changes to article structure remove too much content

I'm not a fan of several massive edits made by Blissfield101: edit 1, edit 2. Some of these edits do make the article follow WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT more closely, but I think the devotion to that structure is too strict. (Bear in mind that WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT says it is just a guideline, not a requirement.) In the process, this has:

  • rearranged the lede sentences in a way that don't emphasize very strongly that the airport is the busiest in the world, which is odd since that's one of the main things it's notable for
  • removed info and citations about future expansions, which is explicitly called out in WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT as something to be included
  • removed Template:Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport, which is a wonderful routebox template that consolidates all of the various transportation at the airport into a single diagram (unlike Template:The Plane Train and Template:ATL SkyTrain)
  • removed info and citations about disputes regarding restaurant contracts
  • removed info and citations about the airport's impact on culture

I haven't seen any discussion about this, but I for one think some of this information ought to be restored. --Bigpeteb (talk) 18:23, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Suspended Routes due to the COVID-19 Pandemic

I have found several routes that are currently suspended due to the pandemic. I figured I could start with Atlanta and work on to the other airports. I put up the edits with verifiable links. If you go to each airlines website, you will find that the routes don't restart until the date I put. They were swiftly removed due to "original research." I have found no websites other than their own that have information on when these suspended routes restart. What should I put as a source for it to be original research? — Preceding unsigned comment added by AirportRouteEditor (talkcontribs) 18:56, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
