The above image has been removed, twice. The first time the edit summary was "QANTAS has not retired the 747. Stop Posting."; I restored with a citation (as seen above), and the edit summary "Restored with source - and you don't need to remove the image if you disagree with the caption"; it was removed again with the edit summary "No need for the image".
That's not how Wikipedia works.

"What could be the last flight of a Qantas Boeing 747 took place on Sunday afternoon...", the other itself speculative) more reliable than the one I gave above; but as I said other reliable sources also support the claim in my caption text. And in any case, if your sources are correct, it neither mandates the removal of the image nor precludes a change to its caption. The image is not speculative - do you dispute that the aircraft conducted a flyby over Sydney? Why do you think that was? Why do you not think that event worthy of mention?

I was wondering about to export Qantas current fleet and Qantas livery in to Qantas fleet page as per Wikipedia splitting there must be atleast 77k bytes but the article size is 150k splitting needed Ktdk ( talk) 13:23, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
I think that details about Qantas' fleet would fit better in that article like liveries and products on the aircraft. I therefore propose that they get moved to that page -- Life200BC ( talk) 03:47, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

When hovering over the link to this page I noticed that the image appears to be of an animal dissection or something similar. I'm not an editor here but it seemed like someone should probably change it. 2A02:C7C:CAAE:5A00:6867:8706:4A2C:72BA ( talk) 15:14, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
I propose that the sections "Company heads" and "Corporate affairs" be moved down (and possibly reversed) and located between "Services" and "Accidents and incidents". The rational for this is two-fold: first, that the flow of the article would be more natural (i.e., History, Destinations, Fleet, Design, Liveries, Services, Corporate affairs, Company heads, Accidents and incidents, etc.); second, the general reader, in my view, is probably more interested in the company's history, destinations, and what it does (rather than, say, the information that an investor, financial analyst, or business journalist would be interested in finding – and, with all the respect in the world, if those folks are only looking here for that kind of information, they might want to consider another line of work). Before making a relatively significant change like this, it seemed like getting input from others might be wise. Cheers, Cl3phact0 ( talk) 12:25, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
