Per WP:INDISCRIMINATE, as there are many aircraft missing from the list and there is no definite criteria for the inclusion of aircraft in the list. A discussion regarding the de-prod can be found at the WikiProject Aircraft. timsdad (talk) 11:48, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Random collection of information with no clear criteria. - Ahunt (talk) 18:23, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Wikipedia is not a random collection of information. Does not really add any value to the encyclopedia as it has no clear criteria or purpose. MilborneOne (talk) 19:46, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to List of aircraft which covers the topic more comprehensively. I see no reason to drop the Russian manufacturers, and once they are included, we will be sitting with what is essentially a duplicate but incomplete list. Sjakkalle (Check!) 06:48, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into List of civil aircraft which is much the same thing. Colonel Warden (talk) 07:05, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to List of aircraft per Sjakkalle. There's nothing to merge into List of civil aircraft, unless we add specifications to every single aircraft in that very long list. --timsdad (talk) 07:10, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Because this list contains technical data, and the others don't. List of aircraft and List of civil aircraft can't compete. It is a incomplete list; therefore it has to be expanded; this can't be done by deletion. Probably rename or better description. Wispanow (talk) 07:20, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect - a comparison article in all but name. I note also, since started no attempt to cover earlier periods or more manufacturers. GraemeLeggett (talk) 17:46, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete If the entries have comprehensive specs then they should be developed into separate articles!!!!. List of aircraft more than covers what is in this list.Petebutt (talk) 19:22, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
