  • Proper name of the airline, according to its official website and press releases – Briguychau (talk) 03:41, 26 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • See Wikipedia conventions about capitalization. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:35, 26 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose using the lowercase is a stylistic choice. As noted by Anthony, the suggested title doesn't follow rules on capitalization.--Labattblueboy (talk) 12:04, 26 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Worst rankings edit

This airline is setting records for customer displeasure and incredibly small seats. These are a major feature of the airline. There should probably be a section about the record low customer satisfaction being recorded for Rouge as it is certainly notable to be so bad. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.128.80.79 (talk) 14:51, 29 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Fleet update edit

@SempreVolando: That may be so, but the ref is only current as of February 2014, as indicated at the bottom right of the page (and as I said in my edit summary). My ref, Anna.aero, cites ch-aviation – neither of which are bad sources. — Sunnya343✈ (háblamemy work) 20:24, 29 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Sunnya343:@SempreVolando: Thanks for your help in updating the fleet page. I've been occasionally involved in updating the fleet chart for a couple of years now and I appreciate both of your efforts in making this a better page.

The referenced used by SempreVolando is the government of Canada's aircraft registration database. Although it says last updated in Feb 2014, that isn't really the case. The template for the page is from 2014 but if you go through the list provided, you'll see that individual aircraft are updated more recently than that. As a result, there are in fact more than 18 767-300ERs in operation under Rouge.

However, on multiple occasions, the database is either not updated immediately, or Air Canada's paperwork is not updated in the database when a particular airframe is transferred from AC Mainline to Rouge. Examples are C-GHLA and C-GHLK in Summer 2016 - both were eventually updated, but maybe a month after the transfer. The database currently shows 19 767s in operation for Rouge, but in fact, C-GEOQ has been transferred also, making it a total of 20 aircraft. I would prefer that the page show 20 (and not 19), but I'm too tired to start/continue that editing war. I'll keep the page as it is for now until this is settled.

@Briguychau: I see how that "last modified" date is wrong – there are owner registration dates after February 2014. I suppose this ref could be used instead, and it can be noted that the ref was accessed in December 2016, accommodating for the fact that it may be outdated. We should also remember that this is Wikipedia – an encyclopedia – not Planespotters.net or Airfleets.net. Unless there is a reliable ref showing 20 767s in operation, we cannot include that information. Regards. — Sunnya343✈ (háblamemy work) 07:29, 1 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
