Is there a reason why we need two articles on the same aircraft this one and CZAW SportCruiser? - Ahunt (talk) 23:39, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is being discussed on WikiProject Aircraft - Ahunt (talk) 00:21, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As per the discussion at WikiProject Aircraft the consensus is to redirect this article to CZAW SportCruiser. All content and refs have been merged there. - Ahunt (talk) 15:17, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I didn't post here, been busy. To answer some of the questions above, no, the SportCruiser won't be produced anymore. No, the photo isn't a copyright violation. Yes, the PiperSport did require significant design changes before being taken on by Piper and deserves its own entry, and won't have many common components. The whole reason for the "developed from" entry is to document that airplanes do change over time, and are often derived from older aircraft. I'd sure appreciate it if you'd quit deleting PiperSport.

On a related note, the entry for CZAW SportCruiser should actually change to "CSA SportCruiser" since CZAW hasn't existed for a while.Dennisolcott (talk) 03:18, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The decision has already been made to delete this page. If you're not too busy again, you're welcome to contribute to the discussion, and cite reliable sources for you claims above. (Wat I've seen published so far supports the minimal-changes.) If they are convincing, the consensus may change to support restoring this article. However, unilateral action on your part in continuing to restore the article here is liable to result in your being blocked from editing. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 03:28, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
