I'll fit it in sometime next week. Say, you wouldn't know which of those began with the B-52 shot down to rob the atomic bombs? MadMaxDog 05:53, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

That book is Mission "Apocalypse". It makes a trilogy with the two titles following.Efrasnel 20:40, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

To Translate

It is my goal to make this page a good page, and eventually have it rated as Start quality.To this end, one needs to:

To translate (from fr.wikipedia.org)

Les heros L'ennemie juree, Lady X

To do: Maybe add a list of planes seen in the comic strip. Add a list of references (particularly the dupuis site) --Dthaiger 05:37, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

References are lacking, though it should be possible to find them for the biographical stuff. MadMaxDog 07:22, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

For first - citation: Maybe http://www.aeroplanete.net/article.php3?id_article=104 --Dthaiger 21:56, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for cleaning it up. --131.215.159.11 15:53, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

I recently added a list of planes piloted by the three heroes on the french-speaking page : fr:Buck_Danny#Les_avions_de_Buck_Danny. Of course there are many other recurring planes in the albums but not piloted by the hearoes, including J-29 Tunnan, Hawker Hunter, MiG-29 etc.
Also, I think the best translation for escadrille is flight (escadron -> squadron, and escadre -> wing), although the english-speaking page used translated the three titles with "escadrille" by squadron (Escadrille ZZ, L'Escadrille de la mort and L'Escadrille fantôme).

Story arcs

I don't have time for this right now, but first chance I get I'm going to edit the bibliography section by 1) adding the year each novel came out. 2) grouping them together by story arcs, and including a short synopsis. I haven't read all of them, so any help would be highly appreciated. 147.9.167.183 (talk) 02:15, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

OK, done. I also set up links to articles could be written about individual story arcs. Again, help would be appreciated; I haven't read them all and many I can't remember. 147.9.201.163 (talk) 21:51, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

   Pass/Fail:

This article is not suited for a Good article, because it is mostly unsourced, which is one of the main requirements of #1 and WP:Verifiability. I would suggest working on making a citation for almost every piece of information in the article, and reducing the amount of plot summary and focusing on real world details as provided by WP:Reliable sources, Sadads (talk) 14:59, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
