Air Mail section

I added some much needed citations yet there is plenty of statements I can't find citations for. Someone with more knowledge and resources will need to finish that section out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrianFrench1995 (talk • contribs) 00:34, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Speedbird logo.gif

Image:Speedbird logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Merge proposal of List of aircraft of Imperial Airways

The list has little potential of expansion and currently sits unreferenced with no substantial information. I propose a merge into a section of this article. Airplaneman ✈ 04:14, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support, unless there were images available for all types, it'd be better served as part of the article. - The Bushranger (talk) 05:12, 11 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support, because it doesn't make sense that the list of an airline's fleet is in a seperate article from the article for the airline. This article isn't that long, and it wouldn't hurt to add some extra info to this article. Compdude123 (talk) 20:42, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support there's insufficient detail here to overwhelm the other article, and the others not oversize. GraemeLeggett (talk) 22:20, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose comments by nominator have been addressed, little potential of expansion - not true as it has been expanded, and currently sits unreferenced - now referenced, with no substantial information - information added. Still needs more work but has enough to stand alone in my opinion. MilborneOne (talk) 14:34, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The original nominators concerns have been addressed in part, but I'm yet to be convinced it needs to be a standalone article. GraemeLeggett (talk) 15:37, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - the addition of the list to the airline article would unbalance the latter. List needs expansion particularly in relation to retirement dates. These should not be too hard to source. Mjroots (talk) 10:35, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - IMHO there's an evident increasing interest in operators' fleets, both by aircraft type and individual aircraft, in both current and historical groupings. Perhaps we just need thresholds for numbers of types, and numbers of individual aircraft, for candidacy for separate articles? PeterWD (talk) 11:27, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
