Fair use rationale for Image:Mflogo.jpg[edit]

Image:Mflogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 21:57, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Xiamen Airlines → XiamenAir – New official name. WP:AVINAME#Airlines, WP:COMMONNAME, WP:CONCISE. Regards, Sovereign/Sentinel 10:09, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I dont object to the change but note the official name is still Xiamen Airlines it is only the branding or trading name that has changed. MilborneOne (talk) 18:46, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think XiamenAir can be considered the most commonly used English-language name. Sovereign/Sentinel 17:28, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

5x expanded by Mikelolggmrox (talk). Self-nominated at 04:07, 16 January 2023 (UTC).[reply]

  • @Mikelolggmrox: Reviewing this. FYI, for future reference, what is counted is the characters of the text in the body, not the byte-size. In any case, article went from around 2,300 to 16,000 so that's good enough. Several issues otherwise:
  • I am not comfortable with the "Frequent Flyer Program" as it is. The only source cited in the entire section is a pdf from the airline. I feel like this entire section, per WP:DUE, should be reduced to 1-2 sentences or even removed altogether. FYI, without that section the article is still expanded sufficiently for DYK.
  • The last paragraph of the lead section also gives me a bit of a promotional/SYNTHESIS sense. I recommend removing it altogether.
  • The article in general needs to watch for promotional-sounding words especially when citing primary sources, e.g. "Xiamen Airlines has made innovative breakthroughs in corporate organization"
  • I took several sample sources, and I cannot find assertions made in the text. For example, fourth paragraph of the "History" section asserts that "citizens of Xiamen and overseas Chinese visiting their relatives could only travel by boat or train, and it took a lot of time for Xiamen to communicate with the outside world", not supported by the citation. This might have been WP:OR, or it might be my translate tool messing up.

Might want to do a go-through of the entire article to make sure it is up to editorial standards first. Juxlos (talk) 12:36, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I deleted some text and charts that sounded like an advertisement, and I've added the source for the History section. -- B-MIKE -(Talk) 16:24, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Could you do a couple more passes? I still see a good number of such sentences and words, and while at it check for some copyediting for the punctuations. There are also several sentences that look like crude translations from Chinese and reads awkwardly in English. Juxlos (talk) 16:39, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I fixed some sentences from "chinglish" grammar to sentences that are more comfortable to read for English speakers. -- B-MIKE -(Talk) 16:07, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Still not satisfied. The quantity of promotional-sounding prose in the article is still excessive. I think the article needs, effectively, a total rewrite before it will be eligible for the main page. Another reviewer may offer a different opinion, but I will not be passing this until said total rewrite has been done. Juxlos (talk) 15:48, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
