usage?

There does not appear to be any documentation or other tips on the usage of this navbox. Is it intended to be used on any air show with performers from more than one country? Should all such shows be added to the navbox? Beeblebrox (talk) 20:20, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently nobody knows, so I'm going to assume it means any air show where more than one nation is represented and that it is appropriate to add them to the navbox. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:04, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that Dayton qualifies. I suggest that only airshows with "International" in their title be included, such as Farnborough International Airshow and Salon International de l'Aéronautique et de l'Espace. Colonel Warden (talk) 06:53, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So, it's just a naming distinction? Well, I mean, obviously you just made that up since you have never edited this template before and apparently followed me here, but if that a name is the only reason any of these air shows are included, you've got your work cut out for you removing all the other entries that do not say "international" in their title despite having performers and/or exhibits from more than one nation. why, there's even another edit by me that you haven't undone yet, we can't let that stand can we? Now I know how much you hate deleting anything but your newly decreed criteria is not reflected in the navbox, so get to work! Beeblebrox (talk) 17:18, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an aviation expert, but I think it's common sense that an airshow which has performers and/or exhibits from more than one nation but which does not have the word "International" in its official title can still be considered an "International Airshow".

I expect you'd find that just about every airshow would qualify as international in that case. Colonel Warden (talk) 07:01, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree with the Colonel that nearly all non-american airshows have foreign participation so it could include potentionally thousands of airshows. We have three groups of international airshows; the major trade shows like Berlin, Paris, Farnborough etc; the big military airshows like RIAT and the amateur flying shows like Oshkosh and Tannkosh. Not sure how you define the inclusion criteria but certainly isnt foreign representation but having the word International is probably a good starting point although international shows like Tannkosh dont use the word International.
