Template talk:WikiProject Aviation

To do

To do:

• Add varous options to specify what type of infobox needs to be added.
• Add option to say aircraft stats need to be updated to standards.
• Add military aviation task force

Was there a decision to not apply an importance scale to aviation articles? Certainly it's a useful construct for other wikiprojects, but I don't see anything on it here.LeadSongDog 19:52, 18 October 2007 (UTC) {{editprotected}} I would like an administrator to please add a new taskforce, Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Australian aviation task force.}} Littleteddy (roar!) 11:38, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

C-class

Resolved

 – Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 22:05, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

C-class has been implemented in Wikipedia, but this particular template doesn't support it yet. (e.g. Talk:GMF AeroAsia) Could someone who actually can add to the code implement this? Thanks.=) --DA PIE EATER (talk) 00:29, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Done. The way I've incorporated it, If someone assess an article as C-class without completing the B-class checklist, it will still come up as start class. An article will be C-class if the checklist is complete and at least three of the five items are "yes". Again, if all 5 items are "yes" then it will still automatically assess it as B-class. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 22:05, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Assessing as "B" or "C"-class will show "Start"-class

Assessing an article as "B" or "C"-class will show as "Start"-class. Use either one of these templates:

{{WPAVIATION|class=C|Aircraft-project=yes}}
{{WPAVIATION|class=B|Aircraft-project=yes}}

And both will show the same output as:

{{WPAVIATION|class=Start|Aircraft-project=yes}}

Gary King (talk) 18:40, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

I think you'll need to use the B-class checklist. Martin 16:06, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I was told that after posting this, to which I replied that the template should at least display a warning that the checklist is incomplete. Gary King (talk) 16:20, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Different image for portal icon, instead of standard one

Just a suggestion, since there are so many nice photos out there for the aviation portal, could the standard icon in the portal link be updated to include a photo? Thanks. --Funandtrvl (talk) 06:12, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree and we should use this:File:Wrightflyer thumb.jpg. I was gonna do it but its locked. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 01:02, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

Template not closing

This template doesn't appear to be closing correctly, and it's making it look like other page content is part of the template when used. See, for example, Talk:Hawaiian Airlines where both the WikiProject Hawaii template and the discussion items below all appear to be part of the template. -- Hawaiian717 (talk) 16:54, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I think the problem was due to an edit on Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks/collapsed, see [1], I think when you put back WPAVIATION to the way it was, that you should protect this hook template as well. -- WOSlinker (talk) 23:27, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

Has you're reversion fixed it, WOSlinker? I ask because I wasn't online today and I saw no errors yesterday, and can't see any now. Can the banner be reverted back to the meta form? - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 03:25, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, the reversion of Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks/collapsed fixed it. -- WOSlinker (talk) 14:08, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Not sure if this is related, but the template is showing an error message with a comma in a category link. For example see Talk:F/A-18_Hornet. -Fnlayson (talk) 22:02, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I just noticed that and have reverted back to the version that does not show "Expression error: Unexpected < operator-" in big red letters. I have no idea how to fix the other problem. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 23:25, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Since the template now uses Template:WPBannerMeta, it's not a problem with the template itself, but one of the templates being used in it. I'll try to track it down. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 05:24, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

It was a small bug which has now been fixed. I must say that I question the wisdom of reverting the banner (and therefore affecting thousands of pages) because of an error message which occured on just one page. It does seem a little like using a sledgehammer to break a nut. Anyway, apologies for the inconvenience. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:59, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

• Thanks for fixing that. The comma error affected many, maybe all the pages where this banner was used. I just listed one example to show what it was doing. -Fnlayson (talk) 15:17, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Military task force

{{editprotected}}

Please add parameter

|Military=yes

(or "military", "military-task-force", "Military-task-force")

to the template, and link it to

Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Military aviation task force

76.66.196.218 (talk) 13:06, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello 76.66, you seem to get everywhere! Um, that is not a taskforce of this project but of MilHist so I'm not sure that it is appropriate. Perhaps a member of the Aviation project could confirm that this is desirable? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:39, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Imageneeded

I know I am not the only one to make the mistake of upper and lower case. It is possible to make the parameters in the template not case sensitive? SO that, for example, imageneeded=yes and Imageneeded=yes have the same result. Traveler100 (talk) 07:34, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Done and done. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 04:29, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Collapsed section

The code for the collapsed section hook has recently been enhanced. One benefit is that the text can be made to line up with the rest of the banner (which I have now done). Another benefit is the ability to selectively collapse the section depending on how many rows are displayed. It is rarely useful to collapse one row, because the header of the section takes up the same amount of space and so information is hidden without any space saving. On the sandbox is an implementation whereby 2 rows or more are collapsed but 1 row isn't. See the /testcases for some examples. Please let me know what you think. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:34, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I have now implemented this. Let me know if there are any problems. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 14:24, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Comment subpage

When a comments subpage includes a section header, the page TOC becomes embedded in the banner, and if the comments section is hidden, the TOC is also hidden from the page. I discovered this on the Talk:UH-1 Iroquois page. --Born2flie (talk) 00:59, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Interesting. The banner uses Template:WPBannerMeta, so I'll bring it up there to be fixed. - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 02:19, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

It's not a banner problem, it's just something that happens with transcluded pages and headers. The only way to fix it is, if you see this problem, then delete the headers from the subpage. They usually won't have any so this problem should be rare. - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 23:56, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Disconnect between the banner and the Assessments Dept.

The banner lists five criteria for B and C class, but the list on Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Assessment shows six. Does the banner need correction? Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 04:39, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

No the banner is correct, it's the assessment page that needs fixing. This is mainly because its a copy of the general Wikipedia-wide assessment structure, which uses 6 criteria. Ours is more specialised. Someone (probably me) will eventually get around to fixing the page. Check out WP:MILHIST's page on the same matter to see how they fixed theirs. - Trevor MacInnis ^contribs 06:14, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

OK, just wanted to draw it to somebody's attention. Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:33, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Categories have inconsistent capitals

Edit request on 16 August 2012

Hello, I'm in the process of converting Wikipedia:WikiProject Defunct Airlines to a task force within parent project WP:AIRLINES. I've already moved the Defunct Airlines page to reflect its task force status. Please change the link to the task force accordingly. You can just keep the code to add it to the project be the same; that way, we won't have to have a bot go around and change everything. Please change the paramater that was used in this template from |Defunct-Airlines-project= to something like |Defunct-Airlines= (basically just remove the "Project" from that parameter). I will try and request that a bot go around and make this change. Thanks, Compdude¹²³ 19:17, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

 Not done Could you update the sandbox with the relevant code? I'll make the change for you after that. Also, it would be helpful if you could link to the discussion where a consensus was found to turn the project into a task force. Thanks — Mr. Stradivarius ^{(have a chat)} 05:52, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Apparently, I don't think this template needs to be changed at all. I just realized you can use |Defunct= to signify that the page is part of the defunct airlines task force. (I thought the parameter was |Defunct-Airlines-project=) No change is needed after all. —Compdude¹²³ 23:49, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Compdude¹²³ 03:31, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

The Defunct Airlines project was converted into a task force last August, and now after I've waited months, Hazard-SJ (talk · contribs) has finally run his bot to edit talkpages of defunct airline articles and remove the parameters like |Defunct-Airlines-project=yes or |Defunct-project=yes and change them to |defunct=yes. Now that the bot has removed those parameters, I'd like to request an admin to remove the parameters |Defunct-Airlines-project= and |Defunct-project= from the template. Thanks.

Articles used on portals classification error

I've just tagged the talk page of new redirect (Comet (aircraft) → De Havilland Comet) with this template using only the parameters |class=redirect and |aircaft=yes but Talk:Comet (aircraft) is still being categorised into Category:Aviation articles used on portals, which based on my understanding of the template and category it shouldn't be. I can't figure out why though. Thryduulf (talk) 16:18, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

This is still the case; Category:Aviation articles used on portals currently has 17837 pages in it (including such pages as Talk:1919 United States Army Air Service aircraft designation system and Category talk:2000s aircraft stubs).

I suggest the template is edited to remove the reference to this category (comment it out) until someone who understands the template can fix it properly. DexDor ^(talk) 14:11, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

Change photo requests to image requests

As part of a nearly-completed shift to distinguish requests for photos from requests for images in general, it is requested that this template be modified to place talk pages in "Wikipedia requested images of..." categories, rather than the old "Wikipedia requested photographs of..." categories. As such, please supplement all references to "photo(s) of..." and "photograph(s) of..." with "image(s) of..." in both the template and its documentation, while maintaining backwards compatibility for the old "photo" parameters. In particular, change "photograph or picture" to simply "image". Note that the "Wikipedia requested images of..." categories have already been created.

A new task force has been created, the Soviet aviation task force. Please change the template so that adding the parameter Soviet=y would add the page to the category Category:Soviet aviation task force articles, and would have the (example using C-class) Category:C-class Soviet aviation articles. Thank you for helping start the Soviet aviation task force. I've sent talkpage messages and there are several people who will join the task force once its finished starting. PlanespotterA320 (talk) 18:39, 27 December 2017 (UTC)

Users Petebutt, Jetstreamer, TheMightyGeneral (replied on my user page) all agreed to join the project (I sent invites before project page was published, so they haven't added their usernames to the list yet). Sent out many other invites, no negative replies, but not expecting replies from some yet b/c pretty sure some are in different time zone. Anyway, until the Soviet parameter is added to the template the assessment statistics will remain a redlink, but I'm hoping to get the project up and running soon. Also worth noting that there's a virtual "Iron curtain" on Wikipedia in terms of coverage of Soviet Aviation vs Western aviation. So far no requests for deletion or anything like that at the talkpage, and I made the sandbox edits but for some reason they would not show up. This project is necessary; I've written 17 soviet aviation articles and still have much more to write with hundreds to improve, and Wikipedia has a community of volunteers ready to join the project. Remember that Soviet aviation was much unlike the rest of aviation today; (hardly any international flights, all domestically produced aircraft, censorship of accidents...)that resulted in a lack of information until recently about it, hence this task force is needed.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 00:20, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm guessing that you didn't test it. If you had, you would have noticed immediately that the new code was completely ignored; the subtemplates {{WPBannerMeta/hooks/taskforces}}, {{WPBannerMeta/hooks/notecounter}} and {{WPBannerMeta/hooks/tfnested}} do not recognise more than ten taskforces. To use more, you need to start fresh sets.

Why are five different variations on parameter names necessary? Can these be reduced to just one or perhaps two? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 09:17, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

I clicked "show preview" and saw nothing changed. I didn't know how to fix it, thanks for fixing it in the sandbox. As for the five variations, it's to avoid issues and guessing, and other projects had more than two variations. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't showing, thanks for fixing it. Can the current sandbox version be incorporated into the template, or are there any other steps I need to take?--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 14:12, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

To test a WikiProject banner's sandbox, go to any talk page that uses that banner, edit it, add /sandbox to the template name, plus whatever parameters are needed for the test, and click Show preview.

In this case, you might go to Talk:Tupolev Tu-144, where you would find

{{WPAVIATION|class=start
<!--B-Class checklist-->
|B-Class-1=no<!--1. It is suitably referenced, and all major points are appropriately cited.-->
|B-Class-2=yes<!--2. It reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain major omissions or inaccuracies.-->
|B-Class-3=yes<!--3. It has a defined structure, including a lead section and one or more sections of content.-->
|B-Class-4=y<!--4. It is free from major grammatical errors.-->
|B-Class-5=yes<!--5. It contains appropriate supporting materials, such as an infobox, images, or diagrams.-->
|Aircraft=yes }}

Alter the first line to read

{{WikiProject Aviation/sandbox |soviet=yes |class=start

and preview it. You should see something like this: This will have a "[show]" link; try it. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:43, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

Incorrect ratings if b tests are used.

See {{WikiProject Aviation/class}}

If the template is called with an explicit class of "start", but there are also some b class tests set, then the article gets bumped up to C class. This is wrong. We don't rate articles on getting some things right, such as syntax and spelling, we also need coverage across the board and in particular coverage in an article has to be adequate, or else we still just have a beautifully formatted stub. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:57, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

Indeed; this WikiProject banner is unusual in that respect. The normal behaviour (typified by Template:Class mask as used by {{WikiProject Maps}}) is that the B-class tests are only evaluated when |class=b is also set: in such a case, all of the tests must succeed if the B-class is to be upheld, otherwise it is downgraded to C-class. For any other value of |class=, including |class=c and |class=start, the B-class tests are ignored and the rating is unchanged. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:24, 21 May 2018 (UTC)

Propose removal of portal category

This template places pages in Category:Aviation articles used on portals, but the pages (currently) in that category don't correspond to the pages used in the portal (e.g. as listed at Portal:Aviation/Selected article). Incorrect information is worse than no information so I propose the template be edited to avoid it populating the category. (The category could then be deleted as empty) DexDor ^(talk) 20:33, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

@DexDor: The documentation says:

Portals:

• portal – set |portal=yes if the article is used in the Aviation Portal.
  • This parameter populates Category:Aviation articles used on portals.

Looking at the code, both |portal=yes and |portal-link=yes do the same thing (and it actually displays "This article has been selected for use on the Aviation Portal.", which is slightly different from the doc). So, if article talk pages are in Category:Aviation articles used on portals but should not be, simply remove the parameter (whichever of the two is present) from the WikiProject Aviation banner on the talk page concerned. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 10:30, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

User:Redrose64, It would probably be easier to change the template (and to delete the category) than to change the tags to make the category correct. And, more importantly, it would avoid the category becoming incorrect again (or an ongoing maintenance task of keeping the category up to date). The category is probably unnecessary (most portals do not have a category like this). DexDor ^(talk) 11:53, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

Remove the categorisation only, or remove the whole "This article has been selected ..." note as well? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 12:37, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

Differentiating main line and regional airlines

Why are airports pages' airline listings combining main line and regional airlines? Did I miss a decision? This seems to be a little dishonest as many of the main line airlines would like you to believe you bought a ticket on their flight but you find out that they have a separate express, connection, eagle brand etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zackrules90 (talk • contribs) 02:01, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Should this template be added to Category:WikiProjects using a non-standard quality scale?

What the title asks. Pinging MSGJ, as you re-added the B-class checklist and took part in a discussion about it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aviation. It was my (implicit) understanding that - if a WikiProject used the B-class checklist - it would implicitly have opted out of PIQA, though I accept this may be incorrect. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 22:43, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

They have opted to continue to use the B-class checklist but it is not actually having any effect on the class rating, so sort of advisory only. Therefore they can stay in PIQA without any issue. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 23:21, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Ah, fair enough. Thank you for explaining ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 23:24, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
