Tel Aviv airports

Can you explain to this user (Friends147) that Tel Aviv must be disambiguate? He remove the disambiguation for Tel Aviv as there is passenger service at SDV Airport as well. Thanks!! Snoozlepet (talk) 15:32, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Years for start date!!!

I tried to restored to the year for start dates to the Milan Malpensa Airport article but User:Speed74 reverted as he stated there was no consensus in the discussion started in August 2011. Please help! Snoozlepet (talk) 15:16, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

KLM Destinations

The edits I made to KLM destinations are accurate, correct and not disputable. I have not made 3 reverts in a 24 hour period, indeed it is others that have reverted my edits for no good reason, while falsely claiming 'vandalism' and the like! What is the actual problem? 78.86.37.131 (talk) 19:29, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Peer Review for Alaska Airlines

Hello. I started a peer review for Alaska Airlines a couple of weeks ago but nobody has commented on it yet. The peer review is located here. Please take a look at the article and post your comments on the peer review page. Thanks, Compdude123 (talk) 17:30, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

AA service to Budapest

Do you know if AA service to Budapest is seasonal or year-round? I was able to book a nonstop flight for December 2012. Also, they used an unreliable source (airlineroute.net) to cite this route. Snoozlepet (talk) 04:00, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Airlines go out to 11 months on their schedule, so it's not easy to tell whether somehting that starts December will continue. But Oneworld is now lacking Malev for sure! HkCaGu (talk) 04:22, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
The flight actually resumes June 14, 2012 (from JFK), June 15, 2012 (from BUD) but flights are bookable through December 2012. Just to make it clear. Snoozlepet (talk) 04:30, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
If it's continuous through the fall low season, I wouldn't call it seasonal--unless you see it stop in January/February 2013. BTW, if you can catch some Berlin airport-move related dates--departure dates from America are likely one day earlier than arrival. I don't have the resources to check all the schedules.

The edit wars in Ankara Airport

First of all, I'm very glad that you made the right decision and blocked the user and his other users, so thank you. I'd very happy if you and the others will continue to watch him because this is the fourth article that he vandalized (Ben Gurion Int' Airport, Istanbul Ataturk, Sydney Airport and now Ankara Airport. I had a big edit wars with this person.--Friends147 (talk) 13:46, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi again, the same person opened another user and he vandalize another articles! This is the user: 78.188.108.196 (look at the history of the article Ankara Airport

Gimpo Airport/Taipei Songshan Airport

There is a new service listed at Gimpo International Airport and Taipei Songshan Airport, however, no airline and no date were listed (actually listed as "begins-end March 2012") but they have provided a source. Actually, an IP first added it, I removed it, and another user added it back. Left a message at his talk page regarding this. Can you take a look? Thanks! Snoozlepet (talk) 07:18, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Qantas DFW-BNE-SYD

I think you might find this discussion very interesting Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Airports#Qantas_DFW-BNE-SYD. Please feel free to chime in if you want. Snoozlepet (talk) 02:10, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Yes, it would have been nice if you had joined in with that, rather than just reverting. I do not make edits without considering first whether they will be of benefit to readers and improve the encyclopaedia, and would be grateful if you acknowledge that. --RFBailey (talk) 18:24, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Three Angels Broadcasting Network, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Church of God (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Can you take a look at this? A user continues to add Benghazi, Libya as a destination but there is no firm date given. Snoozlepet (talk) 20:26, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

AA LAX-DCA

American announced LAX-DCA flights but one user continues to remove it saying flights are not for sale. Can you help? Thanks! Snoozlepet (talk) 16:02, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

AA DCA-LAX

Hi, In the source given it says, "Tickets go on sale for this new flight on Sunday, March 4, 2012." I have been told many times even if the flight is announced not to add anything until they go for sale so I will pass this on to you as well. Kairportflier (talk) 19:11, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Some biased guy keeps deleting PIA from the list perhaps due to Pakistan role in Afghan affairs, kindly advice him to keep grudges to himself and not act them out here, this person has also altered other Pak-Afghan related aviation articles in the past and probably even now, thank you. 119.155.39.105 (talk) 12:20, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

British Airways to Abilene, TX

A user added that British Airways operates seasonal flights to Abilene Regional Airport on a seasonal basis. The airport is not an international airport and does not have customs facilities at that airport but they do have a codeshare with AA on that route but you have to go thru DFW to get from Abilene, TX to LHR. I might be wrong but can you have a look? Thanks! Snoozlepet (talk) 04:21, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Edit warring

Your recent editing history at Michelle Kwan shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Note that my removal of a BLP violation is not limited by WP:3RR. If you wish to include that material, take it to WP:BLP/N and gain consensus as to what kind of sourcing is required.—Kww(talk) 00:21, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

Aerolíneas Argentinas discontinuance of flights to AKL

I have reverted back your reversion at Ministro Pistarini International Airport and Sydney Airport. None of the edits you reinstated are supported by a source, which is a violation of a policy. Regards.--Jetstreamer Talk 14:41, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Sorry you're not right. Terminations are not advertised events and you simply can't demand a "source". Something disappearing from the schedule and/or booking engines should be enough proof. And you should be wary going against multiple editors, nearing 3RR on SYD. HkCaGu (talk) 22:52, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
The reference you added in Ministro Pistarini International Airport provides no firm dates. Despite going against the verifiability policy, I will accept your justification. There's a quid pro quo request: given that I'm over my 3RR also at this article, let me ask you do something for me: to remove the "source" you added to that article and place a {{cn}} tag for the end date.--Jetstreamer Talk 23:09, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
Edits to destinations based on published schedules alone have been done on countless occasions projectwide for many years. These have been considered verifiable. References are just there if they are available beside the schedules. (Citing schedules just looks stupid.) I do not think a source will appear for such a termination, and I don't feel it's "needed", so I would not want to request citation under my name. Meanwhile, I would not oppose if you add the CN tag--it can't possibly stay more than 3 months anyway. You're not 3RR unless you remove the termination date. HkCaGu (talk) 23:41, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Unsourced material

"Sacrilegious" or not, you have to stop adding unsourced material to BLPs. If you want to include Chinese names, then you need to demonstrate that the subject actually uses that name.—Kww(talk) 10:45, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Sorry, these politicians ain't Michelle Kwan. Thousands of ballots are sent out to voters in the Chinese language, and those names were not invented by the government. You are an administrator and you should know better than allowing people who have an agenda hiding behind IPs to launch invalid "challenges" to easily Google-able and verifiable facts. We don't demand "sources" that 2+2=4. HkCaGu (talk) 13:41, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
This is far from a "2+2=4" issue, and it is well within the IP's rights (and mine) to demand verifiable sources. In this case, you were able to provide them. That's good. Please don't act like asking you to provide them is somehow disruptive. It isn't disruptive, it's expected.—Kww(talk) 17:51, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
The general principle is that "is it common knowledge?" - I.E. "Paris is the capital of France" is common knowledge. In practice I tend to cite almost all material I add. I would cite when in doubt - On most occasions Chinese names of a well known public figure don't need to be cited, but for a lesser figure it may help to cite them - In most cases we don't require a citation of a Chinese name of an article about a Chinese person WhisperToMe (talk) 00:50, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Hagåtña, Guam

I moved it back to Hagåtña, Guam and notified the user. WhisperToMe (talk) 00:50, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

When I tried it said something like "blacklist". HkCaGu (talk) 00:56, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Hmm... maybe a link on the page was on a blacklist and that prevents editing at all? I would contact the help desk WhisperToMe (talk) 00:57, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Trenton-Mercer Airport

Hi! You recently reverted my edit on Trenton-Mercer Airport. I changed it from Bedform (MA) to Bedford-Hanscom. Yes, there are no other airports in Bedford, MA, but if you search "Bedford Airport" or "Bedford Airport (MA)", you get listings of New Bedford Regional Airport and Bedford County Airport, but no mention of Hanscom Field, the targeted page. However, if you search "Bedford-Hansom Airport", Hansom Field will show up. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 00:05, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Now that WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT calls for linking the airport, I don't think there's justification disambiguating that way. The situation you mentioned calls for fixing redirections, not changing listing standard to accommodate an inadequate redirect. HkCaGu (talk) 01:15, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Some baklava for you!

Thank you for your help with the Trenton-Mercer Airport article! Electriccatfish2 (talk) 01:31, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello,
I really don't understand why this user hasn't blocked for forever. This is not his first time and all the admins knows that he's opens a lot of users, so why don't you block all his users for forever? Why are you tend be forgiving all the time?--Friends147 (talk) 18:49, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

I'm not an administrator. I can only ask an administrator to WP:BLOCK. HkCaGu (talk) 19:40, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Do not indiscriminately revert changes!

Adding a flight school or a link to local heliports is a valid contribution.

No it is not. It is WP:SPAM. HkCaGu (talk) 18:04, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

SPAM is something advertising services or products, the links are informational for area heliports and helipads unavailable elsewhere and provides relevant and invaluable information that extends the depth and reach of the wiki article. It's what external links provide.

You are promoting Core Heli, pure and simple. That's spam. HkCaGu (talk) 19:33, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

The information is currently hosted on coreheli before it was heliflights and before it was on nyheli.org, throughout the whole process it has been referenced by wikipedia for over a year. Please stop with the holier than thou. I'm sure that you work diligently to clean-up after many legit vandals, but not everyone is a crook just because you work as a cop. No where in the webpages is coreheli promoted, the information is just hosted there. Welcome to Wikipedia.

Emirates flight to Dubai at Auckland Airport

Hey, I hope you are enjoying your vacation! A couple of IPs continue to remove Dubai (or list it as "via") as a destination from Auckland. I checked Emirates's website and EK407/408 does fly directly betweeen Auckland and Dubai with a stopover at Melbourne (same flight number and same plane). Should we list Dubai as a destination for Emirates from AKL? If you get a chance, can you take a look at it or if we can bring this up at WP:AIRPORTS. Thanks!

Vandalism by this user: 178.240.119.214

This user has continually opens a large number of users and vandalize articles. He adds false information and of course he does not answer on his talk page. He opens edit wars against me sine August 2011 and it still did not stop. His first username was Karparthos and he began to do damage for the first time on the article of Ben Gurion Airport. That person was addicted to do damage and began to destroy other articles. When he adds proof to his changes, it did not prove anything. The admins don't wants to help me and i need your help. I know that you are not an admin but i know that you can help me. PLEASE.--Friends147 (talk) 09:23, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
