message: In December 1985, a freighter model, the 757-200PF, was announced following a launch order for 20 aircraft from UPS Airlines,[40] and in February 1986, a freighter-passenger combi model, the 757-200M, was launched with an order for one aircraft from Nepal Airlines (Previously: Royal Nepal Airlines).[50] Tamrakar.bibek (talk) 09:24, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think it is necessary to add "(Previously: Royal Nepal Airlines)" since the airline went by Royal Nepal Airlines then and the link is piped to the right article. -Fnlayson (talk) 11:51, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

text: Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the  template. As  says, this is not necessary as the link is there for anyone to follow. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 15:40, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

message: Hi all, I was wondering if we should change the main image of the 757? To a better looking image, mainly at a better, similar to the 767's image.

replies: text: The current infobox image is of a passenger variant. Could you please link the photo that you are asking about, so we can be sure that we are talking about the same image? Sario528 (talk) 12:18, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

text: As the photo you have linked is nearly identical to the one already in use, I see no need for a change. Sario528 (talk) 18:59, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

text: It's even worse as it is a much more rare -300, 55 delivered in 1049.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 19:57, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

text: Not really better. The USair is more sideways and shows less the wing, and is of a disappeared brand, the AA is similar to the Icelandair but not more interesting and it has a dated livery. Icelandair colors are fine and contrasty, higlighting the engines.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 07:22, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

text: OrbitalEnd48401, "I don't like it" is not a good reason to change an article. The -200 version is more representative of the aircraft type and therefore better suited for the leading image. Icelandair's colours are more contrasting, therefore the picture is overall clearer. I see no good reason to change it. --Deeday-UK (talk) 23:54, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

text: A -300 again.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 16:27, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

text: Just to support the original icelandair image, I dont see any reason to change it. MilborneOne (talk) 13:01, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

message: Hello,
I'm not an expert on this aircraft, but I have noticed an inconsistency in the Wiki article regarding the number of hull loss incidents. In the introduction, it states 8 hull loss incidents. Further down in section 5 Incidents and Accidents, it states 9 hull loss incidents. Finally, the reference link, #178, lists 11 instances, but it's  not clear to me if all of those are hull loss incidents. Someone more knowledgeable than me needs to review this. Rjbergen (talk) 01:51, 14 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for your scrutiny! The (dynamic) ref (ASN) should be right with 11 hull losses. The article have not been updated accordingly, it's done now. Do not hesitate to update it yourself!--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:25, 14 September 2019 (UTC)

message: What is the meaning of the "12Y/188F" in the infobox referring to the seat layouts and passenger capacity? I see that many or all Boeing pages include these letters in the infobox but it doesn't explain what they mean. I could understand F being First, but what is Y and J? The only classes I know of are First, Buiness, Economy and Tourist, or 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Is this an acidental mistranslation from another page? Or do these letters mean something? If they do, we shouldn't assume that the reader understands them, because I certainly don't and I am more knowlegable about aircraft than the average person.
BTW I already wrote a message about this a few days ago, but I think it failed to save properly. I saw a notive saying something had failed to save and I'm not sure what it was. If it did save and this is a double post, or if I already said this on a different article, sorry.

message: Just had a look here and felt there were some updates could go on the SF section but thought I'd check for strong feelings on it first.  The SF and PCF are the current two approved conversions and have some significant differences in integration with the base aircraft and I think need a bit more disambiguation.  In addition Boeing dropped out of the program after the DHL order and left it to the aftermarket so while I'd keep the paragraph I'd change the heading to 757-200SF/PCF. Then in the text add at the end a couple of lines on the PCF along the lines of " ST Aerospace continue to offer 14, 14.5 and 15 pallet versions of the SF. A separate 15 ULD aftermarket conversion by Precision Aircraft Solutions (Precision Conversions) was launched in 2002 and approved in 2004 as the 757-200PCF and continues to be produced in 2020. As of 2020 Xx (will check the numbers if can find them) passenger to cargo conversions were in service."   I'll leave it for a day or two for any comment before going ahead with refs etc. Skenu (talk) 12:43, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

message: Does Boeing really offer a Sky Interior retrofit for the 757? As far as I know Boeing's first-party retrofit is only certified for the 737NG. There are however some third-party retrofits that resemble the Sky Interior that are certified for the 757 family, such as those from Safran (which is installed om most of Delta's 757-200 fleet).

message: In the history of the aircraft it mentions that Japanese sales overtures failed in '82 and the first Asia region customers was Singapore in 1987.  As this comes in the late '80s section it might read better to start with the information that Singapore became the first Asian customer in 1987 after initial marketing attempts during the launch in 1982 failed, with sales demonstrations to Japan airways not generating any orders.
