Soaring exist but not for wikipedia, why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.127.246.55 (talk) 22:49, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Three of the first four links on this dab are to soaring/gliding related articles. And while I personally think putting the article about the sport under something like "Soaring" would be a bit better (although as a glider pilot, I may have a bias about what the sport is called), "gliding" is not an uncommon term for the sport (the FAI calls it that, for example, as does the FAA).

I should also point out that "soaring" seems to be most common in US usage - "gliding" seems to be the preferred UK usage. Rwessel (talk) 05:41, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
