Talk:China Airlines

message: Why is there a picture of the 737-800 on fire on the incidents section? There is not one airline article that I know of with a picture displaying diabled aircraft. If i knew how to do it myself, I would remove it. If somoene cal help with this please assist. The title of the aircraft incident is not even displayed correctly. I'll try to fix that in a moment. The picture is in the article "China Airlines Flight 120" where it should be.

message: This is ridiculous, we all know that talking in this fashion will only confuse people:
People no longer called Taiwan, "Republic of China", that name ended its legitimacy once
the communist party took over mainland China in 1949 and created "The People's Republic
of China". The name is outdated and is not recognized internationally, besides, people
avoided calling it like that because of political issues involved.  Not sure what the
author's intention is, but we should simply refer to it as "Taiwan" or "Chinese Taipei". -- unknown — Preceding unsigned comment added by Avcomth (talk • contribs)

replies: text: Taiwan is the common word for the "Republic of China".  It has nothing to do with politics.  Indeed why use 17 letters to identify a country when you could use six letters, unless you want to express a political point? 22:50, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Regardless of what you think, the Chinese Civil War technically isn't over, and, regardless of how either side wants to perceive things, "China" is a land mass controlled by the PRC, and "Taiwan" is an island controlled by the ROC. Thus, any geographic references would use "China" and "Taiwan" while any political references would use "People's Republic of China" and "Republic of China".

replies: text: Actually in terms of the land masses it is "Mainland China" and "Taiwan" - Using only "China" and "Taiwan" can introduce POV and isn't specific enough. Using Mainland China and Taiwan makes it clear. WhisperToMe (talk) 17:27, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

message: An anon IP address has been repeatedly censoring the Incidents and Accidents section. (See diff). Last week, a China Airlines flight struck turbulence while landing at Bali. 30 passengers injured, some in critical condition, but no deaths. Incidents like this are part of an airline's history, like it or not. There's no point censoring information like this from the article.--Lester 01:33, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is unfair to single out a particular airline and report ALL accidents and incidents on a line-by-line basis, especially when Wikipedia entries for other airlines do not report ALL accidents and incidents.  To do so, would imply a smear campaign against this company. So I should ask you, in the interest of equality, if you are going to do this against China Airlines, are you going to do it for all the other airlines to?  And if not, why are you so insistent against China Airlines? Have they wronged you in some way that you must smear them? That's my two cents.

replies: text: I agree with the above comments, that China Airlines is being unfairly targeted. The accidents and incidents section is definitely not in line with the rest of wikipedia airliner pages. There are airlines with way more incidents that aren't reported (especially larger airlines). My vote is to clean it up, and make it more fair. ~syu  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.170.88.247 (talk) 02:49, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The sample template from Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airlines might be of help in deciding which should be kept or deleted. Also, it will be great if the IP editors created their own accounts if you do not already have one to facilitate easier discussion on improving the article. Planenut(Talk) 03:10, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  I quite disagree with the removal. You should think the opposite way.Instead of removing article (since you consider people are unfair to CAL) you are free to report incidents onto other airline pages and help the encyclopaedia coverage expand. Trying to compare incidents rate between Taiwanese airliners is even more ridiculous.Some accidents you removed because there were no injuries do not follow Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airlines- Aircraft lose control, due to many reasons: Pilot error. This was actually a major incident please remember that the aircraft was partially destroyed and needed serious reparation (over 10193 hours on airframe) see http://www.747sp.com/History.asp?22805 . This incident should be kept according to Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airlines- Once again, flameout incidents that do not involve crashes are not reported on in Wikipedia.  So why are we specifically reporting it for China Airlines?Maybe because BOTH engine flameout on a dual engine aircraft are dangerous and absolutely not common? The fact the pilot doesn’t even notice the flameouts isn't important? It is critical to safety. Remember this resulted in airbus informing engine manufacturers of potential defect leading GE to investigate on CF6-80 engines and modyfying its engines design and therefore should appear according to Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airlines.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.234.33.50 (talk) 16:44, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
