I can't find anything in wiki with this title. Is it hiding somewhere? Thanks.Pieter1963 (talk) 01:24, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
- Looks like the last edit removed it. - Ahunt (talk) 02:00, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
- Was the removed content objectionable? eg did it transgress some wiki guideline? Pieter1963 (talk) 14:12, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
- Not that I can see. The edit summary was
Again, COI / citespam
, but the ref was a Princeton University slide presentation in PDF form: http://www.stengel.mycpanel.princeton.edu/FRL.pdf I don't see any reason there to remove it and I think it should be restored. - Ahunt (talk) 14:17, 2 November 2021 (UTC)- Looking back a bit one editor added the Ryan text and citation and another removed the text and citation and gave a cite spamming warning which looks like it was warranted. Tricky one, if it was the milestone in aircraft control it says then the text should be re-added but perhaps with a different source to keep everyone happy. Something ought to be added to the Navion article as well. The redirect title could be applied to any number of research aircraft and perhaps should be deleted or targeted to a better place.

- I think the title should be deleted from wikipedia because this particular term seems to be rare (perhaps too specialised?) and therefore difficult to source. Articles which refer to use of a Navion in this particular "variable response" research call it a variable stability aircraft. Variable Stability Research Aircraft is the correct title for a wiki article as there is plenty out there, egCalspan work, on the subject. Or VSRA could be a new section in this article or another existing article. Which would be the best place to put it? Thanks. Pieter1963 (talk) 00:21, 20 November 2021 (UTC)

I have nominated the redirect for deletion, feel free to comment at its entry, cheers. Nimbus (Cumulus nimbus floats by) 05:02, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
