Talk:Airbus A350

message: This was discussed a few times in archive 1. The main arguments (simplifying; feel free to review archive 1 for details) for including XWB were (1) Airbus uses it and (2) it distinguishes from the A350 (developed from the A330) before the "wider composite design."  BUT, (1) Airbus doesn't even mention "XWB" on its web site (at least not in any prominent way; it simply uses "A350" and "A350 family") and (2) there is no separate article "A350" that exclusively discusses the earlier design idea derived from the A330. It has been eight years since the last discussion about the title. I read various aviation blogs and such, and they rarely mention "XWB," and certainly not automatically as part of defining or introducing the A350. It seems that the usage "A350" without any mention of "XWB" is commonplace now. There may have been a time when "XWB" was more common, but now even Airbus seems not to emphasize it. Wikipedia no longer has a separate A350 article that discusses the earlier usage of "A350." Maybe it's time for another move discussion. Holy (talk) 06:09, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The goal is to use the WP:COMMONNAME. Searching "Airbus A350" -"XWB" gives 3.76M results; "Airbus A350 XWB" gives 0.318M results. The "XWB" suffix should be dropped.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:29, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

text: The XWB part should be removed from the article title, imo.  This article covers both the early A330-based A350 concept and the current A50 AWB. Removing XWB from the article title would better match common name usage and also content of the article. -Fnlayson (talk) 07:13, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

text: Agree entirely, XWB should be removed. I'd even venture to say that this would be an uncontroversial move and shouldn't need a formal move request. Rosbif73 (talk) 10:04, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree it can be removed, it cant be considered a common name now, it was just used for marketing related to Airbus changing the design a few times so as not to confuse the original customers. MilborneOne (talk) 12:11, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Revisiting the title (A350 XWB vs. A350)

thread_title:  New Production Standard (NPS) 

message: "ACJ350" variant info says that it is based on the -900ULR though I have not been able to find any source to back this. On the Airbus site , the ACJ350 can be based off of the -900 or -1000, not the ULR. 
Range is also incorrect, also from the previous link, the -900 base has a 20,550 km/11,100 nm range, and the -1000 is stated to have 19,100 km/10,300 nm range.
Apologies as I'm new here and have little / no clue on formatting and the guidelines on page editing which others here are much more experienced in, else I'd edit it myself. Mainly created an account because I noticed this error. -notbingbadaboom- (talk) 14:24, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
