@ OrbitalEnd48401 Please explain why is the caption/sentence: Part of the tail of the aircraft at the crash site not correct?
You were already reverted by another user who commented that: 'tail wreckage' is not a very common expression; 'TC-MCL' is meaningless to the reader at this point in the article.
So why do you keep reverting this in Turkish Airlines Flight 6491 ? Saschaporsche ( talk) 13:04, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
RE: SEE TALK PAGE
Saw the mesage firstly, your attempts at the caption I am sorry to say were not the best, no grammer at all. You refer an aircraft by it Regisatration, as with a car. Look at photo of the 747 seen four days before hand, its referred by its reg, stop reverting and with all due respect look at other accidents captions. Read these captions:
"Engine debris from TC-MCL still at the crash site five months after the accident" "TC-MCL, the Boeing 747 involved, photographed five days before the accident"
It's referred to its reg, so please stop. OrbitalEnd48401 ( talk) 15:20, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
If it was in flight such as Air France 4590 it was a flight as A) It was still airborne. If it was the aftermath i.e wreckage you refer to it by its reg. I don't understand what is hard about that? OrbitalEnd48401 ( talk) 15:23, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
Why would you refer a pile of declare as a flight? I mean holding a piece of debris and referring it as a flight? I don’t want to be rude but why would you refer to it as a flight if well it isn’t a plane or a flight anymore? OrbitalEnd48401 ( talk) 16:09, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
OB, If you can't grasp this simple concept I have serious doubts about your ability to contribute constructively here. - Samf4u ( talk) 16:52, 14 April 2019 (UTC) .
I disagree with what you say, it’s wreckage either way you look at it. It’s heing simple and short. OrbitalEnd48401 ( talk) 17:23, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
In reality it is a really bad picture for the info box. It is very hard to workout what is being shown. I would prefer that the previous aircraft picture was reinstated. OE please stop applying your made up blanket rules to every article, every article is different and things appropriate for one article are not always appropriate for another.

Ok, it looks like there is a majority here wanting to swap the two pictures. That’s what I have done know. Also amended the captions. Regards Saschaporsche ( talk) 21:16, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
@ Samf4u: @ Andrewgprout: @ Saschaporsche: Hey guys, is the new photo of the crash site better? I’d like your opinions on the new image. OrbitalEnd48401 ( talk) 13:51, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
This article contains a translation of Türk Hava Yolları'nın 6491 sefer sayılı uçuşu from tr.wikipedia. |
Translated the final report from wikipedia turkish version of this article. Joseph30301 ( talk) 14:05, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
First, the article says there were 14 injuries on the ground, but the final report says there were 36 injuries on the ground; I have not fixed this problem because I do not have enough experience with modifying references and I do not want to damage the article by accident. Secondly, I noticed that the preliminary report is cited much more across the page than the final report, which is generally the opposite in most articles on air accidents (in most cases the preliminary report is not used as a reference), so I'm wondering if this might make the information in the article less accurate.
