Morning Calm scheme
editHello, please advise why my edit was deemed "not related". It has been added into the section "Loyalty programme", explaining where its name comes from. Thanks Goodwillgames (talk) 12:31, 8 January 2020 (UTC) Extensive information about the airline's frequent flyer program and amenities, etc should not be included. Remember that Wikipedia is not a travel guide so please focus on aircraft and airline destinations. Nguyen QuocTrung (talk) 12:44, 8 January 2020 (UTC) By focusing on airline destinations we would make a travel guide; by focusing on etymology of the Air Line names and schemes we make an encyclopedia. Aircraft models and routes’ details are already well available in the company’s website, whilst additions such as mine give alternative information to the corporate ones. By removing my entry, you just made the explanation of the whole company’s product less comprehensive. I intend to revert your edit and bring it to the Talk page for others to comment Goodwillgames (talk) 13:47, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
Write the issue here. People can’t understand what you’re talking about if you only copy and paste my talk page. Thanks. Nguyen QuocTrung (talk) 14:27, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
Split
editMany, many other airlines on Wikipedia, including much smaller airlines, feature their own fleet page. Why not Korean? SurferSquall (talk) 15:38, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- Make your case, people will chip in with their opinion. Just for the record, other stuff exists is not a sufficient argument. See WP:SPLIT for some reasons why a split might be appropriate, as well as the way to start a discussion that people might notice. Lithopsian (talk) 20:12, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- Seconding Lithopsian, and I'd also point out my comment at Talk:Asiana_Airlines#Split :3 F4U (they/it) 02:27, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
- Any updates on this? Discussion seems to have virtually stopped and there doesn't seem to be strong momentum to split. I may close soon if nothing toobigtokale (talk) 02:32, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Necessity of splitting has not gone away, i might take a stab at it again SurferSquall (talk) 04:57, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep in mind based on the Asiana thread it seemed like there was consensus objection to splitting; you're welcome to open second discussion but I predict it'll end similarly toobigtokale (talk) 07:48, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Simply objecting that "there needs to be a split" does not provide an adequate reason to split. ~ F4U (talk • they/it) 21:53, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Refer to the WP:Guideline (WP:SIZERULE) only article with over 50 kB or 8000 words may be considered for split. As of now, current article prose size is only 15 kB (2512 words). So, no need to even to consider split article. Ckfasdf (talk) 09:41, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Fleet
editI found only two sources across the internet that Korean Air is going to retire their 747-8is by 2031. But the rest of the internet says that there is no such evidence that Korean Air will retire their 747-8is by 2031. From my opinion, it does not provide enough evidence that Korean Air is going to retire 747-8i fleet by 2031. Good Highlights (talk) 10:18, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- Found the same problem. BuddyHeigh (talk) 20:21, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
Fleet
editGreetings from fellow Wikipedian BuddyHeigh! Found lots of problems regarding the fleet information about Korean Air fleet. The fleet information shows that KAL's going to phase out the Airbus A380s by 2026 and and the Boeing 747-8is by 2031. This information is only found in the internet other Wikipedia is SimpleFlying, who shares the same information. But SimpleFlying still needs some fixing as it sometimes gives wrong information. The fleet information needs proper source to claim that the fleet information is correct. One website is not enough to provide enough source for the fleet information. If any other Wikipedian finds my topic useful, please make sure to keep watch that no one shares such wrong information. Thanks Wikipedians, BuddyHeigh BuddyHeigh (talk) 20:20, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hello BuddyHeigh, we would need to find a reliable source for those numbers. However, SimpleFlying is not reliable. They have been found to copy the content from other websites including Wikipedia without an checks. --McSly (talk) 19:51, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you Wikipedian McSly for agreeing with me.
