Talk:AirportWatch

message: I have created an article for AirportWatch because they are a significant player in the debate around airport expansion in the UK (as can I hope be seen from the member organisations). The initial content has inevitably been created mainly from their web site, however I believe the injunction from last summer and other links shows the 'notability'. I would welcome support in improving the article and stopping it reading 'like an advertisement'. PeterIto (talk) 21:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Justification

message: I'm removing several of the tags in this:
#Refimprove - Guardian, New Statesman and International Herald Tribune are blue chip references, and other refs have now been added
#Expand - redundant when the article has a stub tag
#Cleanup - redundant when there are more specific tags  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phil Bridger (talk • contribs) 12:10, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Tagging

message: I would welcome contributions to make this more neutral and less like an advert. Personally I am not clear what I can add as it is generally a factual article about who they are and what they do. I have asked the person who tagged the article with these issues to review the article again. I am keen to get this sorted and will then create articles for NoTRAG, StopHeathrowExpansion, HACAN Clearskies, CarbonTradeWatch and Plane Stupid and remove the external links to those organisations. I have already created an article for the 2M Group and am awaiting a decision to bring it back from being deleted (currently it is in my 'talk' area) which would remove all the external links.PeterIto (talk) 12:53, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Neutrality and Advertisement?

message: There seem to be a profusion of organisations even within the UK opposing aviation expansion either locally or from some particular angle (noise, CO2 etc) and we need a framework on which to hang the issues and then link to them from the organisational articles. See Talk:Flying_Matters and Talk:Future_of_air_transport_in_the_United_Kingdom for further discussion on this.PeterIto (talk) 12:53, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Getting these organisational articles to mesh with the 'issue' articles and airport articles

message: I have been communicating with PeterIto about the need for a separate 'issues' article which covers both sides of the debate about air transport (which seems a better term as aviation includes light aircraft which have their own issues but are not generally implicated in environmental issues). This seems useful so that articles such as this one, which deal with specific campaign groups, can concentrate on the orgnisation and not get bogged down in the campaign, where the potential for NPOV violations seems to be significant. Whilst I don't support detailed coverage of the issues AirportWatch campaigns on in this article, I do support its notability as a significant player in the debate. I realise that's a bit too close to 'please take my word for it' and there is no reason to do so just on my say so, but I have put a lot of work in Future of air transport in the United Kingdom and they are used as a source there. --FactotEm (talk) 15:27, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
