Fleet list

[edit]

I strongly believe that a Fleet list, as opposed to a Fleet summary, is a useful part of the story of a defunct airline. It supports the text of the article, can provide explanations as an alternative to including them in the text, for example the obtaining of replacement aircraft after a loss, can demonstrate links with other businesses, identifies aircraft for further research, and provide targeted references. None of this is possible with just an aircraft count. It should be tended, not killed. Lestocq (talk) 19:47, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Current practice is not to add fleet lists to airline articles and in that respect this article would be unusual and I dont see anything that would make it a special case. This is a general encyclopedia and plenty of other enthusiast sources detail histories but they are not needed here. MilborneOne (talk) 17:13, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Compromise – I've made the Fleet list collapsible with collapsed as default. Lestocq (talk) 13:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nope hiding is not really a compromise, really needs reverting to the more usual version I put in. MilborneOne (talk) 16:07, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
