Special liveries and decals

Not sure that the special liveries justify such a large detailed section and the addition of a bit of an image fest, if it is notable (which is doubtful with some many) it should be moved into a separate article or wound back to some basic details only.

Let me add that Wikipedia is not an image repository.--Jetstreamer Talk 03:40, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Discrimination against muslim passengers

I added two additional incidents to this article and cited reputable news sources regarding these incidents. User:Aviationspecialist101 deleted them with the explanation of (revert unnecessary info and false info) however they fit in with the suggested criticism that the Economist made in this article. I'm happy to discuss if there is a better way to include them, but they are not "unnecessary" or "false". Thoughts anyone? cOrneLlrOckEy (talk) 01:47, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are a couple of vandal edits to the infobox that were still in the article from before your edits started that need to be removed (and will be more than an undo). I doubt that's why it was reverted, but its there. --Michael Greiner 02:06, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Good catch, thanks for fixing that. cOrneLlrOckEy (talk) 02:23, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
User:WilliamJE and User:MilborneOne didn't seem to want to discuss this and instead engaged in a bit of a reversion war. In the interest of peace, I have linked to another wiki article on the subject with a See Also. cOrneLlrOckEy (talk) 11:08, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
One revert each is not a revision war just a challenge to the addition. Not sure adding the see also (which should be at the bottom of the article really) add anything to the article. Southwest refuses to board people all the time for various reasons mostly due to rules and regulations from others mainly government agencies and most of them will think they are hard done to for various reasons so highlighting a few small cases balanced against the forty-odd year history of the airline is undue weight and really not notable. MilborneOne (talk) 20:07, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
4 times booting passengers of a specific religion in 5 months is a pattern, and it received international coverage. That's notable, and widely been reported as alleged discrimination. I trust we agree the current way of displaying facts is acceptable? cOrneLlrOckEy (talk) 01:44, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There was no targetting. The airline was responding to peoples fears, legitimate or not. If any muslim feels targetted, then they are only feeling the same as every other passenger in the world and should grow a set!!!--Petebutt (talk) 05:29, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Split

Support split - Article is over 100 kB, and should be split into new articles entitled History of Southwest Airlines and Southwest Airlines fleet. --Jax 0677 (talk) 16:56, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support split - Yes, will very much appreciate a separate article created. 115.66.29.26 (talk) 11:37, 29 August 2016 (UTC)115.66.29.26[reply]
