Radio button on article

Is it only me or are others seeing a radio button on the article page?

The radio buttons say "Show map of India", "Show map of Kerala", "Show All".

Can someone check it and fix it as required?

Thanks, Ktin (talk) 20:27, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ktin, i can't see ❯❯❯   S A H A 20:28, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ArnabSaha, Very weird, I looked at it from two different laptops and browsers. Still seeing those radio buttons. Ktin (talk) 20:34, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ArnabSaha, Sorry, did not follow. What epic? Ktin (talk) 20:57, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ktin, oh, sorry. I misunderstood. I thought u are someone else. its related to WP:Discord ❯❯❯   S A H A 20:58, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Ktin is it ok now? TintuArunav (talk) 20:47, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Radio buttons on article page
@TintuArunav Affirmative. No radio buttons now. Thanks. But, something odd has happened with the map on the bottom right of the screen. Ktin (talk) 20:50, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@SounderBruce, I see you making a few edits on the article page, can you help look at the map at the bottom right? Something is odd with it. There is a map of India, and a map of Kerala underneath it. Please can you fix if something is needed there. Ktin (talk) 21:27, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ktin, someone was using the multiple map image in location map but didn't account for where the radio buttons would be. — Yours, Berrely • Talk∕Contribs 09:21, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Final landing at runway 10?

Flight and crash showing runway 10 as final approach runway. Does not seem correct from the visuals available online. It was indded runway 28 and skidded towards the approach of runway 10. The line– On the second attempt on runway 10, the aircraft touched down near taxiway C, which is approximately 1,000 m (3,300 ft) from the beginning of the 2,860 m (9,380 ft) runway., only includes one varifiable citation, need more, if anyone can confirm it, it would be good for the article. Thank you. Drat8sub (talk) 12:00, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Drat8sub, final approach was from R10. check airport chart ❯❯❯   S A H A 12:03, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The citation does not show the flight's approach, it's just info of the runway. Drat8sub (talk) 12:20, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
its not a citation. I provided this for better visualisation. also this ❯❯❯   S A H A 12:25, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
also, provide the visuals saying R28 ❯❯❯   S A H A 12:27, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Gone through the satellites maps. Correct !! Was prejudiced with these brick stacking here in the satellite map that can be seen in the visuals of actual photographs from the crash site. But failed to see that there is a small brick stack near the threshold of R28 too and matches with the small AAI hut with red roof here. Drat8sub (talk) 12:52, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Citation for lead

ArnabSaha, please self revert this edit, and the edit summary would be erroneous as mos:lead does not tell to remove citations all together from lead rather the guideline actually says to keep citation for possibly challenged material, and the citations used in the lead here for statistical and challenging materials like "into a 9–10.5-metre (30–35-foot)"...."broke into three pieces"...."second most deadly accident involving Air India Express"...."which killed 158 people". So, citations are necessary for the lead. However, no need to restore the previously removed multiple citation added for a single line, would not be necessary. Thank you. Drat8sub (talk) 16:23, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think the data and figures are well established now. also properly addressed in the body with better, official sources. citations arent required. need a citation for this "second most deadly accident involving Air India Express" ❯❯❯   S A H A 18:15, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ArnabSaha, it's not about well established or not, as because it should be assumed anything added in a wikipedia article should be backed by well established RS, there is no chance of not established fact. That's why such thing are not considered in anyway necessary to include in guidelines of mos:lead. Rather it's about materials that can be challenged. As clearly its written, The verifiability policy advises that material that is challenged or likely to be challenged, and direct quotations, should be supported by an inline citation. Above that a lead is a summarised version of the whole story and it should be expected that many readers only read the lead and infobox only just to take necessary knowledge. And when materials like the above mentioned phrases which are likely to be challeged should always have an inline citation. And even infobox whereever required, like no. of fatalities. Thus, please self revert the edit, which was errorneous per the guidelines to avoid a 3RR. I hope you got it. Thank you. Drat8sub (talk) 18:32, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Go team

ArnabSaha, as mentioned in your talk page, remove the part if you can't describe the same thing in the article with RS. Keep if you can do the same. Drat8sub (talk) 20:49, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Already sorted out at my talk page. Drat8sub (talk) 22:03, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Disaster?

The disaster cats & DM banner have been removed. What's the threshold for inclusion? Jim Michael (talk) 11:30, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

9/11 was a disaster. Beirut explosion is a disaster. Eighteen dead in a plane crash is not. Dunno what the threshold is, but it's sure to be more than 18. WWGB (talk) 11:41, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Any plane accident regardless how many people died, are include in disaster category, which includes in wikiproject DM. 180.245.109.42 (talk) 13:22, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Evidence? WWGB (talk) 13:39, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The OED: A sudden accident or a natural catastrophe that causes great damage or loss of life., An event or fact that has unfortunate consequences. --qedk (t 愛 c) 16:06, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Incidents (including plane crashes) with a lower death & injury toll have been called disasters by the mainstream media, including some with WP articles which include disaster in their titles. They include: Connellan air disaster (5 killed, 4 injured), 1940 Canberra air disaster (10k, 0 i) & Meopham air disaster (6k, 0i). Jim Michael (talk) 10:51, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Per our very own Disaster: "a serious disruption occurring over a short or long period of time that causes widespread human, material, economic or environmental loss which exceeds the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources." Where is the evidence that India could not cope using its own resources? I see no mention of foreign aid pouring in ... WWGB (talk) 11:23, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You are explicitly contradicting yourself. 9/11 was a disaster, which you mentioned, but there was no mention of any international aid reaching the US. The US government coped with the situation with its own resources, but 9/11 is still definitely a disaster. --Liu1126 (talk) 12:22, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed a disaster, when there is so many loss of life in a such a short period. And aviation accidents are often considered disaster in itself since, each civil aircraft atleast cost US$100M or more, and this one is 450M, a huge economic loss for sure. A famous example Green Ramp disaster. Why it's been removed? This is also a case of Engineering disaster along with anthropogenic or man made disaster. Drat8sub (talk) 23:23, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is the significantly differing definitions of disaster, and the project not stating the boundary between a disaster & a damaging event that isn't severe enough to be classified as a disaster. Jim Michael (talk) 08:43, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
