Images removed

Following the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aviation, which ended in consensus but for one participant, I have removed the images from the tables, for better readability, especially on small screens. Jan olieslagers (talk) 04:49, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sea Harrier retirement

The Sea Harrier has been retired. http://www.defensenews.com/story/defense/naval/naval-aviation/2016/03/21/indian-navy-retires-sea-harriers/82070296/ My update to this effect was reverted by a user who has been banned as a sockpuppet. With nothing more than "not yet"

Not sure how to handle this. Planning to undo the revert in couple of days.

Sea Harrier retirement edit was undone citing Flight Global World Air Forces 2016 which came out in December 2015 and ignoring news reports in March 2016 of the retirement

Flight Global is outdated - the sea harrier has been retired in the Indian Navy after it came out.

Hence undid the undo...

New page with photos

A new page List of active Indian military aircraft with photos has been created. The only difference is they contain images of active military aircraft. This was done as certain users known as UY Scuti(Mystery Intelligence GUY) and Antiochus the great(Name Shows Inflated EGO) are repeatedly removing images citing Consensus. They are ignoring or not knowing this same development had happened 3 months back and the administrator had asked for reason to have two pages 1 with photos and another without photos. To cut affair short the, Reply to every one is that 1) Wikipedia is about Knowledge. 2) A picture is worth 1000 words(More Knowledge).

Hence the administrators had merged both pages while retaining images, Overlooking argument of consensus,Hence the Admin had kept the page Locked for some months. The consensus for removing image was on point that the images were difficult to download on smart phones not that the images did not contribute to page with knowledge, This guys should ideally buy better capacity smart phones or upgrade to 3G, 4G or visit the pages via laptop computer. They decided to remove images instead.

Now this guys are treating same consensus as gospel truth by removing images and accusing me of disruptive edits. If this is allowed to continue they will make Wikipedia a Bible, Torah, Geeta, Kuran. But to avoid conflict I am starting the above said page with images users please do contribute to new page but without removing images — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yogesh D Churi (talkcontribs) 07:18, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
