===Redirects to oneworld===
Hi DBinder, I noticed you came along and cleaned up a link I'd edited that pointed to [[oneworld]] and changed it to [[Oneworld (airlines)|oneworld]].  The MOS suggests leaving these the way they are ([[Wikipedia:Redirect#Don't fix links to redirects that aren't broken]]).  I didn't want to cause you any extra work...

Also, concerning the capitalization of Oneworld, I noticed your vote on the [[WP:MOS-TM]] talk page. I wonder if you'd support a new proposal that lowercase names always be capitalized except in cases where the formatting already causes them to stand out... such as in links ([[oneworld]]), titles ('''oneworld Ruby'''), tables (such as the [[Airline alliance]] global players table column headers) or the bold text at the beginning of an article.  I don't have a problem with a name being written the way it is trademarked, but these trademarks should have a plain-text equivalent for paragraph copy.  Let me know what you think.  -- [[User:Renesis13|Renesis13]] 23:19, 13 March 2006 (UTC)


I see your point about being consistent with the trademarked format. I feel the same way except in the case of first letter capitalization, in which I lean towards capitalization.  I believe the rules of English say the proper nouns should have a capital.  This is how you distinguish between proper nouns and regular nouns, as with the company '''Apple''' and the fruit '''apple'''.  I don't feel that press releases are an accurate source for formatting, as they are pretty much the opposite of encyclopedic content - copyrighted, POV marketing copy, written by the company about itself. -- [[User:Renesis13|Renesis13]] 01:22, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

*Re: Azores.  I'd probably lean to going with Europe.  Do you know of any other lists that are organized the way the destinations are?  If so, maybe we could just follow the example set there?  [[User:Vegaswikian|Vegaswikian]] 21:36, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

===Hi!===

Just so you know SAS is a company who owns lots of airlines among them SAS Scandinavian Airlines SK and SAS Braathens SK(BU), SAS Braathens operate all flights between Norway and Europe except half of the flights between OSL-ARN, check the SAS Group website or the SAS Braathens website to check that, so its actually no airline named just SAS officialy today since the incoperation of the Scandinavian Airlines System in 2004 to 4 different companies (or two airlines) Scandinavian Airlines Sverige, Scandinavian Airlines Danmark and Scandinavian International uses SK and SAS Braathens SK (BU), all flights by SAS Braathens are officialy at the air control are called BU and flight number.

===The HEL Controversy===

Hello. I know, this is biased because I am the other party (again). But the anonymous user that has been insisting in saying that the closest major city that HEL serves is Vantaa, and not Helsinki, has made 4 edits today. I know, I shouldn't be the one bringing this issue to the admins, just pretend you've stumbled on it on your own. :P [[User:Elektrik blue 82|Elektrik Blue 82]] 16:32, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

=== International destinations ===

[[User:PikDig]] has been inserting "international" destinations for Northwest Airlines from New York-area airports. I disagree with the inclusions. I hope you can take a look at [[User talk:PikDig#Northwest Airlines]] to see if my reasoning is correct, and to add other comments. Thanks. [[User:Tinlinkin|Tinlinkin]] 12:05, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

=== Alitalia article ===

Hi Dbinder,

Just wondering if you can help with the Alitalia article. Someone has been trying to vandalise it to remove all the facts about its customer services.

Many thanks --Kalpha 14:05, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. It seems that it has now stopped. But it happened twice. I was simply wondering if there are any tools to protect the article or track changes. --Kalpha 00:03, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

=== polls/voting/whatever ===

Hey, I noticed that *you* noticed that Radiant is everwhere someone mentions a straw poll. Him and and a couple other editors recently tried to make [[Wikipedia:Discuss, don't vote]], a guideline. Theres no discussion of consensus at all, and I would assume that very few people realize it was recently changed from the Voting is Evil essay, to that page. I find Radiant to be a very abusive and violent editor, I just.. don't understand. Just letting you know that your opinions over at WP:DDV would be appreciate.

Footnotes have been used for the better part of a year on certain pages to note seasonal destinations.

Hi db, noticed you've also been removing these, see [[WP:AIRLINES#Flags in the infobox]]. Thanks/[[User:Wangi|wangi]] 18:38, 12 November 2006 (UTC)



===Airline programs===
The admin who made the redirect, [[User:W.marsh|W.marsh]], was unaware of the wikiproject guidelines that these articles should have their own pages. He gave me permission to revert the change and has corrected his mistake by going back to remove the AfD himself (you can verify this from the page history and on his talk page at the appropriate thread). Simply put, the ''true'' consensus is made on the wikiproject guidelines and not the individual articles. While the effort you seem to put into helping to draft the airlines wikiproject is admirable, the seeming ease at which you ignore inconvenient guidelines (or ones you don't agree with) is ironic and inappropriate. So far your thread on changing the guideline has had no response and so these articles stay until there is further action elsewhere. [[User:Parnell88|Parnell88]] 01:28, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

===[[Austin-Bergstrom International Airport]]===
Hi Dbinder. I removed the wiki links from AAL and COA because they were already refered to and linked earlier in the article. [[User:Thadius856|Thadius856]] had noticed this on October 13 using [[WP:AWB|AWB]] and removed the second links, but an anonymous user ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=75.42.224.179 75.42.224.179]) added the links earlier today (to which I reverted for said reason).

=== United Airlines Class of Travel ===
I am in the process of cleaning up the classes.  I will be doing it within the next couple of days.  I will be making it similar to [[Northwest Airlines]] and [[Delta Air Lines]].--[[User:Golich17|Golich17]] 20:42, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

=== Opinion Needed ===
Since you help me out usually, I have a question.  If you have been viewing the editing of the [[Singapore Airlines]] and [[US Airways]] page, do you believe the reverts I have been making are correct?  For what it's worth, select editors re-revert my edits back to the original, complex, hard to understand version.  I'm all for simplicity yet consistency, and they're holding me back from making the proper edits to the article.--[[User:Golich17|Golich17]] 03:25, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

===Editors that don't provide an edit summary tend to look like vandals===
I have noticed you commonly don't enter an edit summary{{#if:User talk:Sox23|<nowiki> </nowiki>as you didn't when you edited [[User talk:Sox23]]{{#if:http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sox23&curid=6815529&diff=103009992&oldid=102622611|<nowiki> </nowiki>(see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Sox23&curid=6815529&diff=103009992&oldid=102622611 this edit])}}}}.  This causes me problems.  When I patrol for vandalism, I use the summary to make a preliminary decision on whether or not the post is a vandal edit or not.  If the summary is present (or at least a section header, the part inside the /* */), I commonly decide the edit is legit and move on.

However, if no edit summary is available, I typically resort to loading the diff for the edit.  This takes time.  For that reason, if your edits are all valid, I ask that you provide edit summaries.  For more on how to enter an edit summary, please read [[Help:Edit summary]].

Incidentally, it is not just me that appreciate having edit summaries.  When you omit your summary, you may be telling various bots that you are vandalizing pages.  For this reason, please consider providing that summary.  It is very important.  You can enter that summary via the edit summary box on edit pages (as shown below).

[[Image:Edit Summary-2.png]]

<div style="margin-left:20px;">The edit summary appears in black italics in the following places:
*[[Help:Page history|Page history]] - list of changes to the page you edited
*[[Help:User contributions|User contributions]] - list of all your edits
*[[Help:Watching pages|Watchlist]]'''<nowiki>*</nowiki>''' - list of recent changes to watched pages ([[Help: Logging in|logged-in]] users only)
*[[Help:Diff|diff page]] - shows the difference between two edits
*[[Help:Recent changes|Recent changes]] - list of all recent edits
*[[w:Wikipedia:IRC channels|Wikipedia IRC channels]] - real time list of all edits
*[[Help:Related changes|Related changes]] - list of recent changes to pages linked to the page you edited
*List of new pages: shows the edit summary of the creation.

'''<nowiki>*</nowiki>''' Use the enhanced watchlist to see all recent changes in the watched pages, not just the last change in each page.</div>

While you do sometimes provide a summary, you commonly either rely on [[WP:AES]] or don't bother. <!--[[User:Where/sigContract]];Will-->[[User:Will Pittenger|Will]] <small>([[User talk:Will Pittenger|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Will Pittenger|contribs]])</small><!--ESC:Will Pittenger--> 23:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

You really should include talk pages.  Until I check the diff, I don't know what you are doing.

=== Mediation Cabal Request ===
Hello! I'm [[User:.V.|.V.]], a member of Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal|mediation cabal]]. We provide informal and optional mediation to users in disputes so, hopefully, it can be resolved early instead of being taken to "official" channels (the [[Mediation Committee]] or [[Arbitration]]). A user has filed a mediation cabal request regarding a discussion on a page in which you are a participant. You can find a link to the mediation [[Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2007-01-07_Singapore_Airlines|here]].

Remember, this mediation is purely optional and the result is non-binding. The goal of this mediation is to hopefully resolve the matter peacably, fairly, and to the satisfaction of all parties involved. Thanks!

=== Speedy deletion of [[Template:Airline Alliance logo]] ===
A tag has been placed on [[Template:Airline Alliance logo]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#T3|section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<tt>&lt;noinclude>&#123;{transclusionless}}&lt;/noinclude></tt>).

===Fair use rationale for [[:Image:Edwinland.jpg]]===
Thanks for uploading or contributing to '''[[:Image:Edwinland.jpg]]'''. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to [[:Image:Edwinland.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline|fair use rationale]].

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|my contributions]]" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Di-no fair use rationale-notice --> —[[User:Angr|'''An''']][[User talk:Angr|''gr'']] <sup>[[User:Angr/If|If you've written a quality article...]]</sup> 14:01, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

===Origin of DB===
Hello DB. Our paths have crossed a few times, mostly in airlines or airports. I've wondered, what is the origin of your user name? I only ask because right now I'm on a train to Munich Airport; the train is operated by Deutsche Bahn, or as their logo depicts, DB. Any relation? BTW-I am from MA as well!

:It's actually my initials. I originally had more of my name, but I decided to change it for a little more anonymity. [[User:DB|DB]] ([[User talk:DB|talk]]) 22:14, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
