Merger of Southwest Air Lines Flight 611[edit]

Southwest Air Lines Flight 611 was nominated for deletion. The discussion was closed on 08 February 2012 with a consensus to merge. Its contents were merged into Ishigaki Airport. The original page is now a redirect to this page. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected article, please see its history; for its talk page, see here.

The Southwest Air Lines Flight 611 was the only significant aircraft accident at Ishigaki Airport. there was a separate article for flight 611 that was nominated for deletion on February 8 2012. per that discussion, the concensus was that the flight 611 article be merged into the parent article for Ishigaki airport. I have started that merger process and invite any further input. I felt that it was most fair to first merge the articles in their entirety, then leave further editing open for discussion. I have blanked the original flight 611 page and redirected here. Paffordmd72 (talk) 22:57, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Text and/or other creative content from this version of Southwest Air Lines Flight 611 was copied or moved into Ishigaki Airport with this edit on 22:57, 21 February 2012 (UTC). The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Clean Up[edit]

The following series of edits have been made in order to clean up after the Southwest Air Lines Flight 611 article was merged here. First, the sections of the flight 611 text were restructured here[1] Paffordmd72 (talk) 14:37, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Then removed the "nominated for deletion" tag here[2] Paffordmd72 (talk) 14:57, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Then moved the flight 611 section to the main text of the airport article here[3]. My reasoning for replacing the section is that the accident is part of the history of the airport and therefore needed to be after the history section. I also reason that locating the text of the accident within the history section does not give it the attention it demands and therefore it needs to remain its own section.Paffordmd72 (talk) 15:20, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Then gathered links here[4]. Paffordmd72 (talk) 15:58, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Then relocated "Notes" section here[5]. Paffordmd72 (talk) 16:05, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Then gathered categories and lists[6]. Paffordmd72 (talk) 16:11, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And finally, removed the "clean up" tag here[7]. I would not suggest that the article is completely clean or perfect, but I believe I have fixed all the issues that caused the tag to be added in the first place and therefore I removed it so that others can give there opinion.

There is no second military use[edit]

The airport's area is by now (2019) largely taken over by the city. The Terminal is a hospital, most of the runway is removed, with a short strip of about 400m left yet untouched. The only aviation still going on there is a pad for the EMS helicopter, near the old firestation, which is now a regular firestation. Like in Shimojishima Airport people likely faught tooth and nail to keep out the military. Besides, moving the Airport out of the city was (besides the runway length) for safety and noise reasons. Turning the airport over for military use (with the accompanying loss of binding safety and environmental regulations) really makes no sense. --133.56.199.80 (talk) 08:24, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
