Your edit to Green Bay-Austin Straubel International Airport and Welcome

edit

Hello and thanks for joining Wikipedia! We can always use the help.

I'm really glad you've joined us, but I regret to tell you I've reverted some of the edits you've just made.

I see that you removed the hyphen from the name of the airport citing that to be the proper name. However, according to FAA documents the legal name of the airport is Green Bay-Austin Straubel International Airport. I believe that your mixing this up with the branding name (the name used in ads, the logo, the community, with the airlines, etc.) which does not include the hyphen. We use the FAA legal name for Wikipedia articles.

I know that you're new and still learning how things are done here. But I must say, from the other 7 edits you've made, I can see that you are becoming quite a good editor, keep up the good work!!!

If you have any questions please don't hesitate and ask questions, you can always ask me by leaveing me a new message on my Talk page. I am always happy to answer questions from any user new or veteran. Have a nice evening --KDTW Flyer (talk) 23:29, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your reply, sorry it took me this long to reply I had work related stuff all day yesterday. Thank you for understanding the use of the legal name. To answer your questions; yes putting the new logo would be fine as well as beneficial to the development of the article. The only problem is getting the rights to using it. I can tell you how to add a logo or any other picture to the infobox (the area on the right with the map, stats, location, and simplified runway information). To add logos/pictures you need to find or add the following code first...

 
| image                     = 
| image-width               = <!-- if less than 200 -->
| caption                   = 
| image2                    = 
| image2-width              = <!-- if less than 200 -->
| caption2                  = 

It should go right under "| name = Green Bay-Austin Straubel International Airport".

What each field does is quite self-explanatory. The image field is where you put the appropriate image link such as, OutagamieCountyWisconsinAirport.jpg. You get this when you upload or look at an already uploaded picture. Image width is used to make the image bigger if it is under 200 pixels wide, you just place the new width such as 300. The caption line is where you put the caption in if you want, an example is Airport Logo. You can put up to 2 images into the infobox so the image2 and so on fields are for the second image if you want to add one.

Here is an example from the Appleton International Airport article.

 
| image        = Appleton International Airport Logo.jpg
| image-width  = 250
| image2       = OutagamieCountyWisconsinAirport.jpg          = 

As you see you don't need to use all the feilds. The first image is the logo and the second is a picture of some hangers.

I hope that this doesn't confuse you, as I said the hardest part is getting the rights to use the logo.

You also asked about some referencing tips. The only thing I have to say is to try and stay and away from social media (i'm still looking into it, but I think this is why XLinkBot reverted your edits yesterday), opinion based content, and undetailed content (pages with only a short sentence about the piece of information they are providing the citation for), you'll be surprised how many people do that here on Wikipedia and frankly those get removed pretty quickly.


Once again, I hope I didn't confuse you in any way and thank you for your work, --KDTW Flyer (talk) 17:48, 17 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for answering my questions and for changing the Green Bay-Austin Straubel logo to the new logo. I saw that you deleted the information about the Green Bay Packers using Green Bay-Austin Straubel saying they also use the Appleton Airport. The Packers only travel through Austin Straubel for their NFL air travel. The Director of Green Bay-Austin Straubel International, Tom Miller, says, "In my 15-years as Airport Director at Green Bay-Austin Straubel International Airport, the Green Bay Packers have utilized this airport for every team charter departure and every return to northeastern Wisconsin for an away game. I have further confirmed this fact with Aaron Popkey, Director of Public Affairs with the Packer organization. –Furthermore, a number of visiting teams also have recently flown into GRB, including the Oakland Raiders, Cleveland Browns, and Dallas Cowboys." Thank you for your understanding and all of your help in updating the page.SueBertrandGRB (talk) 13:21, 22 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thank You for re-adding the Green Bay Packers information, I was just about to add it back in when I came here and saw that you had already done this. By the way, visiting teams don't fly into the airport before the game, they use ATW; however, they do use GRB it to fly home after games with the GB Packers. The teams listed above must have only been in Wisconsin for a day.
