National airworthiness authorities[edit]

Hi Cagliost,

I see you are systematically moving through Wikipedia’s aviation articles changing the expression “national aviation/airworthiness authority” to “civil aviation authority”. For example, diff. Presumably you are doing this because Wikipedia’s relevant page is titled “Civil aviation authority”; and National aviation authority and National airworthiness authorities redirect to Civil aviation authority.

For many of the articles you are editing in this way, the reliable published source is the International Civil Aviation Organisation’s Annexes. In particular, Annex 8 relating to Airworthiness of Aircraft uses the expression “national airworthiness authorities” (in two places):

  • Annex 8, 3rd paragraph: Annex 8 includes broad standards which define, for application by the national airworthiness authorities, the minimum basis for the recognition by States of Certificates of Airworthiness for the purpose of flight of aircraft of other States into and over their territories, thereby achieving, among other things, protection of other aircraft, third parties and property. It is recognized that ICAO Standards would not replace national regulations and that national codes of airworthiness containing the full scope and extent of detail considered necessary by individual States would be required as the basis for the certification of individual aircraft. Each State is free to develop its own comprehensive and detailed code of airworthiness or to select, adopt or accept a comprehensive and detailed code established by another Contracting State. The level of airworthiness required to be maintained by a national code is indicated by the broad standards of Annex 8 supplemented, where necessary, by guidance material provided in ICAO's Airworthiness Technical Manual (Doc 9760).
  • Annex 8, 7th paragraph: To assist States in establishing contact with appropriate national airworthiness authorities, necessary information has been provided in an ICAO circular (Circ 95) which is available on the ICAO-Net.

Here is a web link to ICAO’s Annexes 1 to 18 inclusive. ICAO Annexes. If you search for “civil aviation authority(ies)” and “civil airworthiness authority(ies)” you will find nothing. Conversely if you search for “national airworthiness authorities” you will find the above two quotations.

Wikipedia’s guidance material indicates things should be given the name most commonly used in reliable published sources rather than the title of the most appropriate Wikipedia page. Before I raise the issue for consideration by the Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation, do you have any comments that might indicate that “civil aviation authority” is more appropriate than “national aviation/airworthiness authority” when referring to matters for which ICAO provides a reliable published source? Dolphin (t) 11:20, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dolphin, I've finished my sweep, so feel free to revert any changes you think appropriate. There's sometimes a distinction between airworthiness authorities and aviation authorities, some countries have a single body but other countries have several bodies regulating aviation. In the ICAO Annexes pdf you link to, it refers to national airworthiness authorities but not to national aviation authorities or civil aviation authorities.
I think it depends on context. For example, you link to Regulation of unmanned aerial vehicles where I think my edit is correct. cagliost (talk) 11:54, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your prompt reply. I agree that each instance depends on context. I will think further on the issue. Dolphin (t) 22:04, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Levanter moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, The Levanter, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?)

Lift-induced drag[edit]

HI Cagliost. The article presently contains the sentence “A two-dimensional wing can still reduce drag for a given lift, by travelling faster and reducing its angle of attack, therefore reducing profile drag.” It is tagged “citation needed”. On 22 April you responded by providing an in-line citation pointing to a NASA web site. See your diff. Thanks for providing that.

I have perused the text you cited in support of the sentence but I can find nothing to support the sentence quoted above. If you still believe the NASA website contains some words that are truly relevant to the sentence in question, please let me know which words you have in mind. You can do so by quoting the words exactly, like this: “To separate the effects of angle of attack on drag, and drag due to lift, aerodynamicists often use two wing models.”

Secondly, I would appreciate your view on why you think a sentence dedicated to reducing profile drag deserves mention in a sub-section titled “Reducing induced drag”. Thanks. Dolphin (t) 13:34, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ten days have passed so I will remove the offending sentence. Dolphin (t) 11:34, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree. The source provided, titled "Inclination Effects on Drag", clearly states "as angle increases, drag increases". It's relevant because lift-induced drag is not the only cause of the effect where (at slow speeds) drag decreases as speed increases. It's helpful to the reader to understand that there are other causes of this effect, otherwise they might be left with the impression that lift-induced drag is the only cause.

This discussion belongs on the article talk page where others can see it. cagliost (talk) 11:40, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ways to improve Julian Hans[edit]

Hello, Cagliost,

Thank you for creating Julian Hans.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article needs more references to satisfy notability for biography of living persons - AND FOR WP:NSPORT What is needed are references giving significant coverage about this person, and independent of them, in multiple secondary sources which are reliable - WP:RS; that is your guide.

You may also read WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources.
Pages of photographs, mentions of this person on pages about other topics do not garner notability.

A more comprehensive guide is WP:BASIC ... People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. Lack of attention to the above is likely to mean that the article may not be suitable for inclusion.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Whiteguru}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Autopatrolled[edit]

Hi Cagliost, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed' and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned prolific creators of articles where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! – Joe (talk) 11:08, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Center of lift[edit]

Hi Cagliost. In at least two of your recent edits[which?] you have inserted the expression “center of lift”. This is inappropriate. Reliable sources never use this expression; they use “center of pressure” instead. There is a good reason for this: the aerodynamic force on a wing is defined to act through the center of pressure; the aerodynamic force is arbitrarily decomposed into two forces – lift and drag. Lift and drag add to form the aerodynamic force, and they both act through the same point – the center of pressure. Wikipedia does not acknowledge the use of the expression “center of lift” or “center of drag” and there is no article dedicated to either of these. Center of lift redirects to center of pressure. Please remove “center of lift” from those places where you have inserted it.

Thanks for the explanation of why they are not synonymous. I have fixed it in Flight dynamics (fixed-wing aircraft) and Longitudinal stability. If there are any more articles, please tell me and I will take a look. Alternatively, rather than pedantically sending me personal messages, you could make the one-word change yourself, it would take you less time. cagliost (talk) 08:32, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In this edit you wrote “A typical aircraft will have its center of lift behind its center of gravity.” As you know, this is incorrect. Contrast it with a similar statement in Longitudinal stability#Center of gravity and neutral point which says “In a conventional aircraft, the center of gravity is forward of the neutral point.” Note the incorrect switch from neutral point to center of lift/pressure.

Changed to "center of pressure". If we want to change this to "neutral point" (and also make the change in Longitudinal stability), it will require a rephrase to avoid a circular explanation. cagliost (talk) 08:32, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On 30 June 2022 I left a message for you at Talk:Static margin. See my diff. I did not ping you, assuming you would have this page on your Watchlist. You have not responded so perhaps you haven’t seen it.

Looking now. Please ping me next time, I don't have every page I've ever edited on a watchlist. cagliost (talk) 08:32, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  1. In this edit, in the first sentence you inserted “In aircraft analysis, static margin is defined as the distance between the center of gravity and the neutral point of the aircraft, …” In the next paragraph you inserted “Conventional aircraft have the center of lift behind the center of gravity , …”
  2. When I see you make a significant error I prefer to let you know so you can learn from the experience. If I fix the error you learn nothing. There are too few competent young Users working in the field of aerodynamics so when one comes along, such as yourself, I am keen to mentor and assist. That is the way Wikipedia works.
  3. You have written that if we want to change center of pressure to neutral point "it will require a rephrase to avoid a circular explanation." I see no risk of any circular explanation. Reliable sources on the subject of longitudinal stability use the concept of neutral point rather than center of pressure. We are all required to use explanations and descriptions used in reliable sources; you may have a personal preference for “center of pressure” but that doesn’t allow you to insert material that is at odds with reliable published sources. More importantly, I assume you are aware that the center of pressure moves in response to changes in airspeed? As airspeed reduces the center of pressure moves forward so it is unreasonable to assert that the center of pressure is always behind the center of gravity; it is certainly not supported by any reliable source that I am aware of.

Preview – Consolidate – Summarize[edit]

Hello- Below are a few editing suggestions to make it easier for you and others to collaborate on the encyclopedia. Please preview, consolidate, and summarize your edits:

  • Try to consolidate your edits, at least at the section level, to avoid cluttering the page's edit history; this makes it easier for your fellow editors to understand your intentions, and makes it easier for those monitoring activity on the article.
    • The show preview button (beside the "publish changes" button) is helpful for this; use it to view your changes incrementally before finally saving the page once you're satisfied with your edits.
  • Please remember to explain each edit with an edit summary (box above the "publish changes" button).

I don't think an essay arguing that a "strong keep" is equivalent to a "keep" is a particularly strong justification for editing other people's comments in an AFD debate, it is the job of the closer to asses the merits of each comment and discard/devalue those with little basis in policy. 86.23.109.101 (talk) 11:10, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I have just added some pictures on Carl von Schirach's wiki page, could you please check to see if everything is alright? I would also like to introduce his sabre as one of his last personal objects that have been kept, as i have talked with his relatives and it seems like they only have an early picture of him, with no other personal objects. Believing that you are more experienced, i think you would do a so much better job at introducing it, only if you also think thats a great idea. Personally, i think that would be a nice addition. The sabre is currently in my collection and here his a small description of it:


It is a modest dove's head, without much ornamentation. What makes it really special are the engravings with the Schirach family coat of arms, the initials C and S, the Freiherr (baron) crown and the WKC-made damask blade. Also, on the spine you can see the name of the merchant who sold it and the city (Erfurt) which matches the path taken by Carl. The sword is accompanied by a very rare royal dragon made of metal wire. An interesting thing is the ring attached to the head of the sword, which is believed to be something specific to cavalry swords.


I am looking forward to hearing something from you, thank you very much!

Gottfried Johannes Müller (10 April 1914 – 26 September 2009)[edit]

I would like to see my draft article on Gottfried Johannes Müller (10 April 1914 – 26 September 2009) adopted (and bettered). I have nurtured this article for a long time. I do not have a direct connection with Salem or Müller (or his family), but I have twice visited the Salem Village in Rumney, New Hampshire when Thom Hartmann was its Executive Director. I think that he left that work (which was a Christian vegetarian orphanage) because he was (becoming) a humanist (or becaue he wanted to become more overtly involved with political activities. Are you interested in working with that article (toward acceptance)?? MaynardClark (talk) 19:48, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I had used for my article the same profile photo that is being used in the Gottfried Müller (politician) article. MaynardClark (talk) 19:49, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
