GA concerns
[edit]I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria due to uncited text throughout the article including entire paragraphs and sections. The maintenance section is also quite short and I think it should be expanded. Is anyone interested in fixing up the article to address these concerns, or should this go to WP:GAR?

There is uncited text, including entire paragraphs. The "Maintenance" section is quite short and could be expanded. Z1720 (talk) 03:07, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: I am the editor who did the initial GA Review back in 2017. I am swamped with real life at the moment and simply cannot work on any issues of this truly massive article but have a few thoughts on this GAR:
- I skimmed the article and counted 3 paragraphs that contained no citations, so there is some uncited content.
- And yes the Maintenance section is quite short and is also unreferenced.
- The main issue I see with this present version is that many instances of referenced content haven't been updated since 2017, so the content is woefully out of date.

- There are also uncited statements at the end of paragraphs. I use User:Phlsph7/HighlightUnreferencedPassages to show what is uncited in an article. Z1720 (talk) 05:50, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, ok, that's a tool I am not familiar with- thanks. I guess I'm thinking the uncited sentences/paragraphs could possibly just be excised without any major loss to the main content. The fact that so much of the information is frozen in time and is out of date by at least 7 years...*that* to me is a bigger problem. I'm surprised folks from WP:WikiProject Aviation or WP:WikiProject Aircraft haven't weighed-in or volunteered. I mean, really, this article is not in an area of my expertise or interests...I'm just the editor who reviewed it. Maybe things are slow because it's Labor Day weekend in the States? - Shearonink (talk) 17:12, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
