As a young boy, my father took me around the country collecting aircraft registrations, both civil & military. I am just old enough to remember when Heathrow actually welcomed people who came to look at the pretty planes. And when the police did turn up to move you along, they kindly gave you two minutes to finish taking your photograph first.
These days it is the USAF at RAF Lakenheath that roll out the red carpet for aircraft enthusiasts. How ironic!
Air crash summaries (rarely the full article itself, mostly just the two-line summary at the end of some airline history)
Image captions - trying to add the right amount of detail, and removing the excess. Plus occasionally add a better image.
Infoboxes - heavens; where do I start? Maybe the original template is wrong in many cases, encouraging editors to fill up every available field with trivia instead of adding value to the main text of the article.
Visit the Tearoom once a week, just to see if there is anything I can add from a non-expert viewpoint.
Writing a new article - or perhaps not. There is plenty to keep me busy simply improving existing articles.
MOS:Infobox
The purpose of an infobox is to summarize, but not supplant, the key facts that appear in an article. An article should remain complete with its infobox ignored. The less information that an infobox contains, the more effectively it serves its purpose, allowing readers to identify key facts at a glance. Information should be presented in a short format, wherever possible, and exclude unnecessary content.
A disinfobox offers a competitive counter-article, stripped of nuance, making it a poor substitute for accuracy and complexity.
If the infobox contains only information found in the lead, it is a disinfobox.
If the infobox is longer than a third of the article's body, it is a disinfobox.
If a biographical infobox contains only a photo, a person's occupation, and date and place of birth/death, it is a disinfobox.
If the infobox contains multiple entries within any identifying field, it is probably a disinfobox. (note; there are also counter-arguments to these ideas)
