view · edit Frequently asked questions

Q: Why are the names of the episodes different to what I have seen aired?

A: For a show like Mayday almost every broadcaster has changed the ordering of the episodes and even changed the name of the episodes and series, but this article is on the series as it was produced and first aired in Canada.

Q: Why are sources are required for the air dates?

A: The original air date is when the episode first aired in Canada, not the United States, UK or Australia. As such to prove the air date is the air date for Canada not anywhere else a reliable source is required.

Q: Why can't I add new episodes?

A: If the episode hasn't aired yet, then a reliable source is required. This is the same for any other TV show on Misplaced Pages.

Punctuation improvements request

We need some commas in the S14E05 description, S14E11 description and the UPS 6 description to improve punctuation:

'flips over, bursting into flames'

'As of February 2015, the Boeing 777-200ER has not been found'

'land back at the airport, but are unsuccessful'

Edit fully-protected request on December 12, 2016

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Run this script on the article to correctly format the |OriginalAirDate= parameter in the usages of {{Episode list}} to use {{Start date}}, per the documentation of the template and remove the article from Category:Episode lists with unformatted air dates. I've been mass-removing articles from the category by running this script, but I can't update this one due to the protection level. Alex|The|Whovian 13:17, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

Not done for now: how about you put a version in a sandbox or at Draft:List of Mayday episodes which has the dates formatted correctly? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:05, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

@MSGJ: Done. There's also a number of other edits that should be implemented on this article to bring it up to WP:TV standards, but I'm not sure if these should be implemented with the current level of protection the article has. Alex|The|Whovian 00:03, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Done — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:02, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Protected

I notice this article is indefinitely fully-protected. I would probably dealt with this by blocking the edit warriors (Dkendel for sure and possibly WilliamJE too) rather than protection. Is it time to unprotect yet? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:04, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Maybe we can change it back to silver. I told Dkendel to stop. How about putting the lock back to silver so I can edit this article. I'm not a vandal or anything. MattChatt18 (talk) 17:13, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Protected edit request on 13 December 2016: The aircraft involved in S5E07 "Air India: Explosive Evidence" (Air India Flight 182) is more specifically a Boeing 747-237B.

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

The aircraft involved in S5E07 "Air India: Explosive Evidence" (Air India Flight 182) is more specifically a Boeing 747-237B. (As stated in the linked article. I am also trying to include another web reference, but for some reason it does not show up in the edit preview.) --IByte (talk) 17:48, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:40, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

We do not include the Boeing customer code infixes in the model numbers; nor for that matter do we include the Airbus engine model infixes in their model numbers. These infixes are meaningless to a layperson. YSSYguy (talk) 06:11, 14 December 2016 (UTC)

Rest of Season 16 and Season 17

http://www.natgeotv.com/uk/shows/natgeo/air-crash-investigation

This link contains not only Episodes 6-10 of Season 16 but also the first two episodes of Season 17! No air dates yet for any of these episodes. The accidents involved based upon this link and their titles are: For Season 16:

S16E07: Crash in the Alps (Unknown incident)

S16E08: River Runway (Garuda Indonesia Flight 421)

S16E09: (AirAsia Flight 8501))

S16E10: (National Airlines Flight 102)

For Season 17:

S17E01: (Northwest Airlink Flight 5719)

S17E02: (Comair Flight 3272)

This will be an interesting ending to Season 16 and a spectacular beginning to Season 17. I tried to make the edit, but I noticed that the page has been blocked for some reason. I don't know what happened since I was away, but when will it be back to normal? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tntad (talk • contribs) 14:55, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

So this link has the airdates for Deadly Solution (AirAsia Flight 8501) and Murder in the Skies (UK title is Crash in the Alps). The accident is Germanwings Flight 9525. http://www.nationalgeographic.com.au/tv/air-crash-investigation/episodes.aspx?series=15

Sorry that I did not put this in earlier, but it was missing from my original post. Tntad (talk) 15:06, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

I can't add them on because this article is fully protected. Can we at least change the lock to silver again? I want to edit this article again.MattChatt18 (talk) 18:45, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

Can someone change the lock back to silver again? I told Dkendel to stop. I feel like editing this article again for improvements or changes. Thanks. MattChatt18 (talk) 15:55, 22 December 2016 (UTC) MattChatt18 (talk) 15:55, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

Not done to request a change in protection level, please see WP:RFPP. — xaosflux 02:44, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

If you are going to have a page fully blocked from editing, then it is irresponsible to not respond to the talk page even days later. I suggest that the proper way to resolve this is for an administrator to monitor the talk page or resuce the full edit-block. Otherwise it gives a negative image about the people that do have editing capabilities at this point. Tntad (talk) 08:45, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

Fine! It looks like I will NEVER edit this article again! DAMN! MattChatt18 (talk) 14:13, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

I want someone to add the info about episode 7 and 8 for season 16 of Mayday that i have written under this. Season 16 of the Mayday series contains 10 episodes, but just 6 are on Misplaced Pages. I hope i also can add the info about episode 9 and 10. Thank you. User:Dkendel

Done no response in 3 days, so assuming this is uncontroversial — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:40, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

@MSGJ:, it is unreferenced. This page has a long history of putting entries in that are untrue Secondly, this is the holiday season. Many editors have slowed down. Three days is hardly sufficient. It is a holiday weekend.

Bottom line- I object to entries without a WP:RS and BTW Imdb does not qualify as one....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 20:45, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
