Advert template
[edit]For discussion of the {{advert}} template and its possible correction and removal.
@Roost: I removed a false statement claiming that this is the only flight simulator for Windows and Mac. Does this solve the issue of the article looking like an ad, or are there other issues? —Cousteau (talk) 15:34, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
Latest version
[edit]Okay so the latest version was X-Plane 12.06 which is released on September 15, 2023. I have no idea how to edit infobox, so can anyone edit it? Here's the link: [1] Emery Cool21 (talk) 03:59, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
- Recently updated the article (I didn't have an account back then) to reflect version 12.07. Also removed stuff about X-Plane 11 Early Access/Beta and updated the release history to show XP11 as end-of-life (though I think that table's very clunky... we might be better off without it).
- I'm curious, would there be an issue with using primary sources for things like versioning or price changes? And in what areas would said primary sources be discouraged? Iy4vet (talk) 06:06, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
Removal of most of article content
[edit]After the removal of most of the article content by @Woodroar:, this article has effectively been rendered a stub. As such, I've added a {{Videogame-software-stub}} stub template to the end of the article source.
Also, I've removed the advertisement template as it only applied to the article before most of its contents were removed. The article, such as it is, still relies too much on primary sources so that template was kept, but, since it's the only issue template attached to the article, I removed the multiple-issues template.

- I just downgraded this article’s assessment rating to “Stub class” so it’s consistent with the stub template. Jdbtwo (talk) 01:42, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- My hope is that someone rewrites the article completely based on the suggested secondary sources at the top of the page. I'd be happy to do it myself, if I ever get the time. Woodroar (talk) 16:22, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
