I notice that the wiki is filled with aircraft projects which are not available per CVS. A lot of are Addons but it keeps unclear where to get them or if they part of the official hangar.

Shoulden't be there maybe better a split between CVS and Addon here in the wiki?

: Hi,
: Hi,
: it is already possible to add a download link to the aircraft infobox. This should lead to the most up-to-date version of the aircraft (whether that is FlightGear.org, your own website or another third party host. CVS aircraft do not need a download link, as you will get it from the repository anyway. However, I do agree with you that it should be more clear. Do you prefer an "Addon" template (such as [[Template:Stub]]) or an extra option in the infobox? I am open to any idea.<br>Oh, and please sign your messages with four tildes (~) ;)<br>

:Hi,
seems, that most of the authors don't know the option of adding a link to their work in the aircraft infobox.
I would prefer an "Addon"-Template, as it seems to me that a certain number of developers don't want or can't add their work to CVS. This might other developers prevent from developing for CVS. At least it helps to prevent confusion, as people can now see more clear which aircrafts are available per CVS/ official flightgear.org Download page or somewhere else.
It might be maybe a bit difficult to sort out and convince people to make use of the new template.

There needs to be a dedicated article about translating individual articles, especially about prioritizing certain articles (based on the [http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Special:Statistics stats]) and about translation strategies. Also, there should probably be a couple of new templates specifically to be used for translation efforts, such as "translation request" and "translation in progress", as well as "translation help or review required".--[[User:MILSTD|MILSTD]] 18:10, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
