RfC: Should the article title be styled as the IATA name, Branded name, or the ICAO name?


Should the article title be styled as the IATA name, Branded name, or the ICAO name?

  • American Airlines Flight 5342 (IATA name)
    • Consistency with sources including the NTSB, NY Times, and Washington Post
    • Brand recognition of American
  • American Eagle Flight 5342 (Branded name)
    • Ticketing and passenger experience
  • PSA Airlines Flight 5342 (ICAO name)
    • Operational and legal accuracy

The same question applies to the recent Delta accident:

  • Delta Air Lines Flight 4819
  • Delta Connection Flight 4819
  • Endeavor Air Flight 4819

All follow the style of <airline> Flight <flight-number> as described in the [conventions section]

Should the title be styled as the IATA name, Branded name, or the ICAO name? Zaptain United (talk) 02:34, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Survey

I notice inconsistency between article names for aircraft accidents where an airline is operating on behalf of another one. There is dispute on what airline should be used. I wanted to end this dispute after especially seeing the dispute on 2025 Potomac River mid-air collision Zaptain United (talk) 02:37, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Just for clarity, this is specifically about how the flight number is stylized within the article itself, not the title? Article titles should use whichever is the WP:COMMONNAME used by reliable sources. It is my opinion that for articles that use the flight number as its title, the article itself should be consistent with it. However, I don't currently have an opinion on which style should be used on articles such as the above example, which are not titled with a flight number. - ZLEA TǀC 03:30, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I just want to solve which airline to use for the title. Like there was a dispute on the Potomac mid air collision article on whether the Flight 5342 should be called PSA Airlines, American Airlines, or American Eagle in the article? It is mainly a problem with these regional air carrier crashes Like Comair Flight 5191 or Colgan Air Flight 3407. Zaptain United (talk) 18:18, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Also I change the title to be less confusing cause I am talking about which airline should be used in the title not the flight number. I copied this from someone's draft RFC on this topic. Zaptain United (talk) 18:19, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) In that case, it should be whichever is the WP:COMMONNAME used by most reliable sources. - ZLEA TǀC 18:20, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think the main problem is a title dispute right after a crash and there is dispute on what the title should be for a crash where a airlines is operating on behalf of another one and sources vary in what they called the crash. Zaptain United (talk) 18:34, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, I think the best course of action is to wait until a clear common name emerges. WP:THEREISNORUSH after all. If a reasonable amount of time elapses and there is still no clear common name used by reliable sources, then it's probably worth tackling on a case-by-case basis. - ZLEA TǀC 03:11, 2 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Zaptain United, I created a survey section, please add a clear !vote there. Dw31415 (talk) 03:06, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • COMMONNAME per @ZLEA
Dw31415 (talk) 15:14, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Option 1 if that's how the NY Times, Washington Post and other WP:RSs do it, unless/until there's a better WP:COMMONNAME. That said, Wikipedia isn't a newspaper so waiting an hour for the media to pick a name might be the best choice in practice. ~ Argenti Aertheri(Chat?) 17:34, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'd argue that calling this an "American Airlines" flight would be a bit misleading since American Airlines does not operate the Bombardier CRJ700 series of regional aircraft. "American Eagle" is only how American Airlines markets itself as a regional carrier but doesn't necessarily "operate" a flight. I remember reading the article of Comair Flight 5191, where Delta couldn't be held liable, since Comair managed its own flight crew and pilots, even though Comair was a complete subsidiary of Delta Air Lines. It's likely that the same may apply here, although news reports read that family members of the victims are suing both American and PSA for the accident.
In the preliminary report, the NTSB almost never makes mention of American Airlines, or American Eagle for that matter. The lead paragraph remarks that PSA Airlines operated Flight 5342, with no mention of American Airlines whatsoever. Only later, does it mention that PSA Airlines is a wholly-owned subsidiary of American.

Discussion

Adding space for discussion. Dw31415 (talk) 02:59, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Zaptain United, thanks for creating the RfC, I remember there being extensive discussion on this at both the talk pages for Delta Connection Flight 4819 and American Airlines Flight 5342 (IATA name). I think it's important to ping the editors from those discussions here as part of RFCBEFORE. I could maybe do it next week, but I suggest caution in requesting close without that step. Dw31415 (talk) 03:03, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Here's the draft of the RfC from my page so you could at least make sure to ping those editors. Draft RfC on my talk Dw31415 (talk) 03:05, 26 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Pinging @GalacticOrbits and @Borgenland. Zaptain United (talk) 14:45, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly I'm not that well-versed in the acronym soup or their regulations. In my private opinion it's the actual livery that matters unless a consensus of reliable sources say otherwise. Borgenland (talk) 15:01, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Personally, I've toned down my editing routine on Wikipedia since this RfC proposal was created, so my knowledge behind the whole regulation and subsidiary code sharing probably needs some touch-ups.
Nevertheless, what this discussion is trying to achieve is, long overdue, a standard for naming all aviation accidents for regional airlines that operate/market themselves under a major airline (primarily seen through flights in North America, occasionally in Europe, and seldom elsewhere), something that has not been clearly outlined at WP:AATF (I'm aware that it's not a guideline page, but it helps clear out confusion for naming most aviation article accidents). The term used in the industry for this is a "capacity purchase agreement," where major airlines provide the capacity (aircraft) for smaller regional airlines, with the regional airlines hiring crew members and the service, while the major airline is responsible for the maintenance of the aircraft. There have been numerous discussions with varying opinions, some of which include Colgan Air Flight 3407, Trans-Colorado Airlines Flight 2286, and the discussions up above. These discussions argue whether to value WP:COMMONNAME or to be more technically precise. The main issue with WP:COMMONNAME is that the common name differs for different events (see Colgan Air Flight 3407 v/s Continental Express Flight 2574.) and WP:CONSISTENT disputes like this happen time and again.
For future accidents, a possible make-shift solution to address both issues would be to initially name it with the brand name (when it receives maximum publicity) and once the heat dies down and legal proceedings take over (investigation, court hearings, etc.), we can switch it over to the airline name as official bodies would recognise the operator as the body that hired the flight crew and not necessarily the body that owns the aircraft (similar to how we don't use the lessor as the operator of the flight, say calling the accident Andromeda Leasing I Flight 3591 instead of Atlas Air Flight 3591)[1] In this case, American/Delta techncially act as the lessors to PSA/Endeavor. I'm using my base as Comair Flight 5191, where Comair was held liable (as mentioned above) on grounds of crew negligence and inadequate training. The editors over here can be the judge for my proposal here and decide on how long to wait before renaming the page, but I think this rationale has substantial common ground.
Now regarding the accidents that have already happened, well, I'm not entirely sure. First let's get consensus on a solution and maybe then we can decide what happens to those articles. GalacticOrbits (talk) 10:39, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, is anyone else going to reply on this RfC? Zaptain United (talk) 00:03, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Zaptain United, did you ever open the rfc with a template Wikipedia:Requests for comment#Creating an RfC Dw31415 (talk) 14:39, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No, is that why no one is replying here? Zaptain United (talk) 14:40, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The RfC tag expired a few weeks ago (Special:PermaLink/1325087091), though I’m not exactly sure this is ripe for a close with only one person voting. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 17:18, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think we should just close this rfc as no consensus and I think I will just do a RFC on the main article for the Potomac Collision to decide the name for Flight 5342. It will probably get more attention. Zaptain United (talk) 19:40, 27 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that this should be closed. Unless there is an objection, I’ll close this as withdrawn. Dw31415 (talk) 15:19, 18 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
I didn’t get a chance to do it yet and next couple of days are sketchy too. Dw31415 (talk) 03:44, 21 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

What should be the main image for this article?

current image

The current image is too blurry and the image size is really small so it won't appear when you hover over the article name. Zaptain United (talk) 20:16, 25 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Zaptain United Did you mean to post that at Talk:2024 Haneda Airport runway collision instead of here? - ZLEA TǀC 20:35, 25 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Also Zaptain United can you please WP:DROPTHESTICK. You're disruptively obsessed with changing the lead image in that article and are being generally disruptive around images all over aircraft and aircrash related articles all over the project. Canterbury Tail talk 23:23, 25 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Canterbury Tail is right. Also, discussions about improvements to individual articles belong in the talk pages of said articles. You can post notices about such discussions here, but all discussion should take place in the appropriate talk page. - ZLEA TǀC 02:29, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alright no more Mr. Nice Guy. I've done being patience and having to constantly wait and submit everytime. No wonder this quote age well. A few months ago I thought it was a exaggeration. It is truly this. "Yeah, if you ever try editing wikipedia, you'll find out that their community is the worst totalitarian shithole ever."

Alright, I have calm down a little. I just can't hold my true feelings back on this. Zaptain United (talk) 03:18, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You are required to, per WP:CIVIL. - The Bushranger One ping only 03:31, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry you feel that way, but building consensus requires patience. Sometimes it takes half an hour, sometimes it takes days or weeks. I think we all can agree that Wikipedia can be a bit bureaucratic at times, despite what WP:NOTBURO says, but that just means that things tend to work more slowly than we'd like. "Totalitarian" absolutely does not describe Wikipedia. No one person or group controls content within articles, and those who try often end up blocked. - ZLEA TǀC 03:34, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You know I have been trying to be patience. It all started with the short description where I wanted to build a consensus on whether to use "aircraft" or "aviation" and everyone just keeps insulting me for this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Zaptain_United#Aviation_does_not_mean_the_same_thing_as_aircraft.
I generally getting stalk on Wikipedia with editors keep following my contributions all the time. This image mess is with editors telling me to go the talk page were especially on obscure plane accidents, no one will respond. I than ping editors and get attacked for it. I than am told to place all my image suggestions here instead of the talk page. Now I can't do that either. I have conceded on many occasions, yet I am getting screw over. Also, for the Haneda images, the editors who ruled against these image changes have a vendetta against any image changes mainly edit that article and will be generally the only editors who pay attention to the talk page. It has been a few months since those discussions, and I am trying to get more editors involved. I keep getting attack no matter what side I am on. Zaptain United (talk) 03:47, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is an example of me just getting screw over. A sockpuppet editor moved ValuJet Airlines Flight 592 to ValuJet Flight 592 in 2021. I move the bold text of the flight number in the intro to ValuJet Flight 592 to match the article name. @Doniago reverts my edit saying that Valujet Airlines is the correct title despite the article title being just Valujet.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ValuJet_Flight_592&oldid=1307968006
They then accuse me of vandalism and threaten me with a ban despite the article already being name ValuJet Flight 592. I explain to them that "I was merely adjusting the article to fit the name. I actually prefer using ValuJet Airlines Flight 592." I change the article name to match the airline name after that.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Zaptain_United#August_2025
They then say it is nonsensical for blaming an editor who was actually a sockpuppet for my edits despite me basing my edits on their edit so I can match the title. They then say I should have ask on the talk page before making the edit, but the article was already called ValuJet Flight 592 for 4 YEARS so why would I think I need to seek consensus for this change when the article title was already changed. I than change the article title in his favor only to get promptly reverted by another editor not happy with me sastifying this editor's "request". I than go to the talk page to settle where the original title form 2021 is kept. Wow just wow.

I really tried to remain calm and collected in this situation, but I generally kept screw over by this situation and having people try to insult my English?

(edit conflict) I don't see that users were insulting you over "aircraft/aviation". From what I see, they were just pointing out to you that the two terms are not interchangeable and were asking you to stop treating them as such. Also, if you think you are being unfairly followed across multiple articles, there are ways to deal with that. Keep in mind that tracking other users' edits is not always "stalking", as there are many legitimate reasons for doing it such as if an editor has made a string of problematic changes. It's also possible that editors aren't intentionally following you at all, especially if most of the articles where you think you've been followed are very similar in topic, as the editors might just be watching those pages. Accusations of WP:HOUNDING are serious, so it's important to assume good faith until it's clear beyond a reasonable doubt that the other editors are acting in bad faith.
Can you point me to an example of someone telling you to propose images on this page? I believe I told you that you could use this page to notify users of discussions, but I don't recall anyone telling you that you should propose the changes themselves here.
And finally, I assume you're referring to these two discussions. I see no indications that any of the involved editors have any sort of "vendetta against any image changes". All editors who opposed the proposals brought up reasonable concerns about the images, so to say they have a "vendetta" is assuming bad faith. On a side note, don't be afraid to be WP:BOLD if you believe one image is significantly better than the current image. While it's true that the images on some articles were chosen by community consensus and shouldn't just be boldly changed, that's not always the case. If someone disagrees and believes that the new image is not an improvement, or if you missed that the old image was chosen through consensus, then you may be reverted. If that happens, you should then try discussing the change on the talk page. This is called the BOLD, revert, discuss cycle. - ZLEA TǀC 04:14, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What's your thoughts on the ValuJet situation? I just tried to ignore that and move on, but this discussion has brought back memories of it back. Zaptain United (talk) 04:17, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The problem I see is that they are only reverting my image changes because I am the one who is changing the image. I keep being reverted by the same 2 or 3 editors.
Also, here is the discussion about image changes here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Pakistan_International_Airlines_Flight_8303#This_image_is_way_better_than_the_current_one_for_an_image_of_the_aircraft._Could_we_change_it? Zaptain United (talk) 04:21, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Given what I've seen, I think Doniago was wrong to call your edit vandalism. Unless there's more context I'm missing, I find the idea that you "deliberately introduced incorrect information" to be absurd and and a major overreaction, especially given the fact that this "incorrect information" was the article's very title. There is nothing inherently wrong with making the article text consistent with the title, and if Doniago or anyone else had a legitimate issue with your edit, they should have brought it up instead of accusing you of vandalism.
The problem I see is that they are only reverting my image changes because I am the one who is changing the image. I keep being reverted by the same 2 or 3 editors. If there is no reasonable doubt that you are being hounded in that way, then you should read WP:DWH to learn how to deal with it accordingly. However, I'll reiterate that such accusations are serious and you have to assume good faith until it is beyond a reasonable doubt that they are acting in bad faith. It's possible, and I strongly suspect this to be the case, that these editors are simply regulars of aviation accident/incident articles and that they watch the pages in question. If you were being hounded, they would probably have followed you across many unrelated topics, especially topics to which they rarely contribute.
As for the Pakistan International Airlines discussion, guninvalid said I believe it would be more appropriate to post a message on WT:AVIATION (emphasis mine). That means you should use this page to notify members of the WikiProject about the discussion, not that you should start new article content discussions here. The only reason to have such discussions here is if the proposed change would affect many aviation articles rather than just one. - ZLEA TǀC 05:11, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have no interest in relitigating an incident from four months ago, but I'd encourage you to look at this edit, where Zaptain made a change to text that had been stable for months if not years without providing any edit summary. I might have given them a lower level warning for something like that, but their Talk page was already replete with warnings, including a warning for edit warring issued within the same month. If you want to call what I did absurd and a major overreaction then knock yourself out, but in context Zaptain appeared to be making significant amounts of unconstructive (and in the case of the one I reverted unexplained) edits, and an escalation seemed warranted. DonIago (talk) 05:49, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I saw that edit, and I have not seen any additional context that would justify your reaction. It wasn't the level of the warning you gave that was problematic, it was the fact that you misidentified the edit as vandalism. If Zaptain United was making significant amounts of unconstructive edits, then you should have given them the appropriate warning or confronted them about it in a civil manner rather than assuming bad faith. I too don't want to relitigate old incidents, but one must first acknowledge their mistakes in order to learn from them and ensure they don't happen again. I made a very similar mistake just last month, but I learned from it and used it to improve myself. Please consider doing the same. - ZLEA TǀC 06:23, 26 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The last two results on the talk page have just been decided by the same 2 or 3 editors. I am just getting more opinions involved than just having the opinions of the editors who mainly edit that article. Zaptain United (talk) 19:48, 27 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Overzealous deletion of destinations from airport destinations lists

The creator of the RfC on airline destination lists, who believes they should not be in the encyclopedia, has caused a lot of destruction to the airport destination lists by removing all unsourced content citing WP:BURDEN, instead of adding citing citation needed tags which would allow us to keep the verifiable information until it gets cited. The most recent mass removal which I just noticed today was to Mexico City International Airport, but it has occurred in other airports as well including Frankfurt Airport.

If you have a few moments, please consider restoring and sourcing the information in these destination tables. SportingFlyer T·C 15:44, 9 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Peer review: Human Intervention Motivation Study

I've opened a peer review for Human Intervention Motivation Study, the FAA/ALPA program coordinating treatment and monitoring for aviation professionals with substance use disorders.

The article is strictly US-related, and though this is clearly mentioned in the lead, my preference would be to see this reflected even in the article title. On a sidenote, there is a mention "United States" in full, I seem to remember we have a consensus to spell "US" instead. But on the whole, the article does look quite good! Jan olieslagers (talk) 17:00, 20 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Jan olieslagers: Thank you for the review and kind words!
On the title: While HIMS originated as a US program in 1974, significant international expansion has occurred in recent years—the article documents adoption in Hong Kong (2016), New Zealand (2019), Australia (2020s), and emerging European interest. These international variants operate under the same HIMS name and model. Given this trajectory, a US-specific title could become misleading as the program's geographic scope continues to evolve. The lead's identification as "a U.S. aviation program" and the dedicated International expansion section seem to adequately contextualize the origin while acknowledging the broader reach.
On "United States" vs "US": Good catch—I'll review the article for MOS compliance and standardize to "US" where appropriate.
