Talk:2006 O'Hare International Airport UFO sighting

Untitled

I noticed that there was a copy edit tag added to this article and being the original author I cleaned up what I thought might be the problem and what the other editors had tagged. If there are any other specific grammar, style, cohesion, tone and/or spelling mistakes, please let me know and I'll correct them ASAP. Thanks.

Synthesis tag in sighting section

I agree that evidence of the sighting is bogus, but WP:NOR prohibits us from doing original research to draw that conclusion, even when it's patently obvious like this: one has to find a reliable source that made that argument with respect to this sighting. Perhaps one of the skeptic magazines did so? -- THF 11:49, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Fake photo?

The current picture seems to be the picture of O'Hare's control towers from Wikipedia's main page, with a blurry 'saucer' image added.

I second that.

I removed the "fake" UFO photo added by another user because I didn't think it was relevant to the article. "Real" photo yes. Fake photo, no. North 66 17:27, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Neutrality

I added a neutrality tag to the last section because it only cites one source -- a source that apparently believes in UFO's. It gives a one-sided view of the media's attitude towards UFO's. Wikipediarules2221 05:47, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

I added other sources and removed the neutrality tag. If I find sources that don't apparently believe in UFOs but yet criticizes the media for not covering them seriously (unlikely) or on the other hand, thinks national media coverage of UFOs by big media is spot on, I'll add those too. I assume if you don't agree with me on the difficulty in finding such sources, you'll add the neutrality tag again. North 66 15:24, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Wrong classification?

Throughout the article references are made to an object or UFO, but isn't the proper classification in this case that of an Unidentified Atmospheric Phenomena or UAP? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.64.135.112 (talk) 21:51, 24 December 2014 (UTC)

No. The eyewitnesses described something clearly not made of anything "atmospheric". They did not see a cloud. It was unidentified, it flew, and it was an object. That is literally what UFO stands for. 12.31.187.178 (talk) 19:11, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

Satellite image

I wonder, is there a high resolution satellite images of airport area of that day, where we could posibly see that hole in the cloud? Laurijs (talk) 00:41, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
