This article is about the Boeing 727, a massive gamechanger in aviation history, which gave Boeing the foundation in aviation history. It was one of Boeing's bestselling jets.Bredyhopi (talk) 14:18, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Coming to this one through the article talk page, as my computer will not properly load WP:FAC.

This has a number of issues.

  • Aircraft on display would be better as a table than a list
  • Private aircraft needs expanded, and accidents should include information about any characteristics of the plane that cause accidents.
  • Lots of uncited text, including an underreferenced tag from 2009.
  • Reference formatting issues, include bare URLS.

From a quick glance, this fails WP:FACR #1a, 1b, 1c, 2b, 2c, and probably 4. Hog Farm Talk 14:29, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator has never edited the nominated article; so this should be closed quickly as a bit of a drive-by nomination. Hog Farm Talk 14:31, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
