I think it would be good to have a field in the info box for the aircraft's name(s) in FlightGear (i.e. the ones used with --aircraft=<name>). These are not seldom short and a bit cryptic, hence (IMHO) not suitable as the displayed main name of the aircraft or as the page name. Nice work with the new info box template, btw!  --[[User:AndersG|AndersG]] 18:29, 24 October 2007 (EDT)

  I can do, just tell me how to name it. What's IMHO? Btw, thanks for your compliment. --[[User:Gijs|Gijs]] 16:33, 25 October 2007 (EDT)

What to name it is a bit tricky. Maybe it could have the label --aircraft=
in a displayed box and the "property" could perhaps be called fgname?
Some aircraft have several names/-set files too, can one make the info box cope with that? --[[User:AndersG|AndersG]] 17:44, 25 October 2007 (EDT)

It would give more control over the infobox if we had the parser installed. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions#.23if: --Sek

I agree. By the way, we seem to have lost our abilities to upload files. Can we get that back? -Ampere 00:28, 12 June 2006 (EDT)

Uploads should be working again - not sure how I missed that. The parser extension is also now installed. Hellosimon 01:17, 12 June 2006 (EDT)

The parser functions don't seem to work. Can anyone confirm? -70.48.6.31 21:59, 12 June 2006 (EDT)

The parser functions still aren't working. For example: gives me this instead:

See the template.

The extension is installed - see Special:Version, but the installation page for the extension reports that #if is broken with 1.6.x. Hellosimon 11:44, 19 June 2006 (EDT)

Suggestion: Field for aircraft's name in FlightGear in the Info box.

I think it would be good to have a field in the info box for the aircraft's name(s) in FlightGear (i.e. the ones used with --aircraft=<name>). These are not seldom short and a bit cryptic, hence (IMHO) not suitable as the displayed main name of the aircraft or as the page name.
