An alternative( or in addition) to a "variants" article, especially in cases where there are too many variants to cover in appropriate detail in a single "variants" article, individual variants (or groups of variants) may have their own articles. 676: 665: 654: 643: 548: 419: 408: 397: 386: 524: 305: 277: 632: 375: 989:

Honest question, not intending to provoke arguments. As the article shows, there are many C-130 variants. Several were apparently notable enough to warrant articles of their own… But where is the cutoff line that determines "these" are notable, but "those" are not? Can someone help me understand? —

I have deleted a part of the article based on a very unsustantiated claim that posed C-130 as destructor of 17 indian fighters and claimed it had anti-aircraft artillery on its ramp, a very ridicous claim as never been observed and surely never would work if you want still to use the ramp for bomb

delivery. I would add, that 17 indian aircrafts is about 50% of the extimated pakistani air kills on the whole war. So it is outrageusly insane to kept this unreliable source in the C-130 page. It's better to not having it, rather than to have it with such lunatic claims.

until the wall fell. They are mentioned on a few pages of the book by Bill Grimes called “The History of Big Safari”. All 3 heavily modified aircraft were sent to AMARG and scrapped in the late 90s to early 2000s. Should they be mentioned in the article? —
898:
The content is quite US-centric though I don't have adequate subject knowledge to determine whether that's appropriate. A restructure with better signposting and consideration of level of detail would be good, suggest overall structure along the lines of:
815:, the process that was used during inspections for cracks has been found to cause cracks, leading to the grounding of about 20 percent of the fleet of C-130Hs. I think that's worth mentioning. I leave it to someone who knows more about aviation. 834:
Shouldn't the article say what the plane's operational parameters are? It doesn't appear to say what the plane's altitude is, speed, or range. If it is there and I have missed it, perhaps it should be more prominent in the article?

Hi all, first ever talk page post, following my addition of the globalise section template in the aerial firefighting section of this article. Apologies in advance if I've done anything wrong - let me know if so.

that serve to give users a better idea of what topics would and would not generally be considered notable. Most aircraft types are considered notable enough to have their own articles, so long as they meet
1014:
That said, the fact that a C-130 variant does not have its own article does not necessarily mean that it is not notable. It might just mean that no one has bothered to create such an article yet. -

Just removed Hungary from the list - so far the country never owned or even operated any Hercules; some dolt added it almost 6 (!) years ago from IP 84.83.2.83 (Netherland):

I added the globalise section template to the aerial firefighting section as the writing is very US-centric. The text assumes that the reader is US-based.
1228: 248: 1092:
Given that the C-130A-II and C-130B-II are mentioned in the article, we should try to at least mention other notable variants and versions also. Regards,
