/* Variants */ Changed one word: “a” to “the”.

/* */ grammar

/* Criminal proceedings */ Erased outdated information as mentioned by me on the Talk page.

Erased edit by [[Special:Contributions/~2026-30216-69|~2026-30216-69]] ([[User talk:~2026-30216-69|talk]]). Increasing cabin altitude and reducing cabin pressure are the same thing, and they make conditions more onerous for passengers. For increased passenger comfort it is appropriate to increase cabin pressure during cruise and this is equivalent to reducing the cabin altitude.

/* Early life */ A pronoun is preferred at this point.

/* Academia */ Peter Garnsey

/* Later life */ The fact that he worked as a dentist into his eighties only needs to be said once in the Section!

/* Other roles */ expanded acronym UWA

/* Biography */ spelling

/* */ Inserted essential hyphen.

/* Early life and education */ Refined a sentence to respect chronological order.

/* Bi-level pressure devices */ Erased 2 redundant words.

/* Gold Escort Robbery */ copy edit

/* Notable alumni */ Vanessa Badham

/* 1970s */ Wikilinking

/* Sajid Akram */ Made sense of a sentence by dividing it into two, and inserting the word "She" at the beginning of the new sentence.

/* Early career and union involvement */Explained an acronym at its first appearance.

/* Vietnam War */Refined one jumbled sentence.

/* State-building */ syntax

Re-structured a sentence.

/* Resources and industry */Erased redundant word, probably a remnant of some previous sentence construction.

/* Fluid dynamics */Spelling

Slow-moving fluids are displaying their viscosity. Stickiness is a different property.

It is anomalous to link total number of aircraft constructed to the date of the first flight.

/* Specifications */Avoiding false precision by using a more realistic conversion from feet to metres.

/* top */ Repositioned a sentence within a paragraph.

/* top */ Erased sentence marked “Citation needed” for a week. The sentiment of the sentence reflects a non-neutral point of view, and is not seen elsewhere in the body of the article.

/* Aftermath */Erased redundant, unencyclopaedic words.

/* Notes */ punctuation

/* top */ Erased redundant word

/* Known MiG-21 aces */ The image clearly shows an aircraft in flight. It isn't necessary for the caption to explain that the aircraft is "in flight".

Erased mention of link to external image that is no longer available.

Syntax. Avoiding the clause “… during the Falklands war by HMS Conqueror.”

Inserted non-breaking spaces in 2 places.

Resolved ambiguity by erasing half a dozen words. The ambiguity was whether Resolution was sent to the South Atlantic, or whether it was there to attack Argentina. Elsewhere in the article it becomes clear that Resolution remained in the North Atlantic so there are no grounds for debating whether it was in the South Atlantic to attack Argentina or for some other purpose.

Citation needed. The Certificate of Airworthiness is issued to an individual aircraft.

/* Accident */ Syntax. The disaster did not happen in May 2006. That was the date the photograph was taken.

/* Properties */Erased unnecessary clause from the interior of a sentence.

The body of the article does not indicate an end to Tame’s relationship with Heerey.

Erased redundant word.

/* Design and development */Clarification of the reason the forward engine was not required for the whole flight.

/* Marriages */copy edit

syntax

/* top */ birth date

/* Media career */ copy edit

Redirect based on the subject’s full name.

Made a sentence simpler and easier to understand. Placed the period before the inline citation.

Punctuation

/* Early life and education */Minor editorial refinements.

/* Final NTSC report */ Activation of a stall warning does not indicate the aircraft has lost lift. It indicates the wing is at risk of stalling.

/* Wallis as a cryptographer */Correction to my previous edit.

/* Wallis as a cryptographer */Syntax

/* Governor of Western Australia and Tasmania */Punctuation

/* Documentary films and television series */Syntax

/* Documentary films and television series */Erased redundant words.

Moved material about Packer’s parents out of “Early life” and into “Family”.

/* Student life */Restored mission word.

/* Temporary flight restrictions */ Erased text related to one particular temporary flight restriction. See the most recent section on the Talk page.

Erased paragraph marked “citation needed” for over a week. The claim that some inviscid flows are rotational looks unlikely, especially as no reliable source is cited.

/* Playing career */Unencyclopaedic to use a pronoun at the first mention of the subject in a Section. Reduced capitalisation of hooker.

/* Notes */ Erased unencyclopaedic detail. See also my previous edit.

/* Notes */ Erased mysterious groups of letters

/* Deficiency */ Erased two redundant words.

/* Design and development */ Syntax. The photo does not show a bomb with extended dive brakes on the trailing edges.

/* Career */Unencyclopaedic to use a pronoun at the first mention of the subject in a section.

/* Ellerston, Scone */Syntax

/* Definition */ It isn't true to say hydraulic head is equal to gravitational potential energy per unit weight. The lead correctly states that hydraulic head "is a measurement related to liquid pressure ..." The height of a static column of fluid can be measured using a stand pipe, and such a pipe reflects the static pressure at a point in a body of fluid.

/* Fate */ grammar

Syntax

Citation needed. “inviscid rotational flows”?

Reverted edit by [[Special:Contribs/Dolphin51|Dolphin51]] ([[User talk:Dolphin51|talk]]) to last version by Steinsky

/* Early life and career */Secondary schooling.

Pendulums of this kind can be used to measure the momentum of small, high-speed objects in general. The bullet is one example.

/* top */ The cited source is dated June 2025 so this sentence must be referring to the twelve-day war in mid-2025.

/* top */ Replaced link to a disambiguation page with a more specific target article.

/* Effect and typical ratios */Fine-tuned my Wikilink inserted in my previous edit.

/* Effect and typical ratios */Wikilinked

/* Plot */Syntax. “… the new President from the US Embassy in Mexico ..”?

/* Notable alumni */Spelling

/* Bibliography */Simpson lived in Australia, not Austria.

/* Ideology */ grammar

Reverted edit by [[Special:Contributions/Rattlegun|Rattlegun]] ([[User talk:Rattlegun|talk]]). Unsourced.

/* Design and development */

/* Service history */ Copy edit.

/* Discovery of isotopes */ “an atom”; not “a atom”.

Missing words.

/* Early life and career */Missing word.

/* top */ Refined syntax.

/* Variants */ punctuation

/* Background */A stick shaker is a stall warning device. It is not a “basic pitch control system” and it does not “avoid stalling.”

/* Forces */ Stability is something else. If these forces are balanced Newton’s first law of motion applies and the aircraft experiences no acceleration so speed is constant and steady flight occurs.

“Archived copy” is an unsatisfactory title for an in-line citation.

Reduced unnecessary capitalisation. Spelling.

/* Physics */ Removed poor diagram that has been rendered unnecessary by a superior diagram of a biplane aircraft. The diagram showed an airfoil section labelled with the forces that act on an airplane.

/* Career */ Eliminated colloquialism “during university”.

/* Cause and effect */Syntax.
