Should the Main Mi-17 picture of the article be changed?

since the present main pic on the article is of a historical Afghan airforce i think it be replaced by this one

This is not an article covering current users and use of the helicopter, so there is no issue with retaining the Afghan photo in the infobox, even if the colour scheme of the Afghan air force has since changed following the taliban takeover.Nigel Ish (talk) 11:07, 21 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

2026 Peru Mil Mi-17 crash (Not a attempt to make it an article again)

The deletion attempt for the Peru Mil Mi-17 Crash was a redirect, but the article was deleted, was this accidental or on purpose? I also want to know why it was deleted if it was on purpose. - N198UA (talk) 11:58, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

The Peru crash was probably not significant enough to justify a separate accident article. -Fnlayson (talk) 13:18, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Okay, so the people that voted in the deletion discussion voted redirect but the article was deleted? Does this happen often? N198UA (talk) 20:44, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

It looks like the article was accidentally redirected to a non-existent page (likely a typo in the target article's name) and subsequently speedy deleted per WP:G8. I have recreated the redirect with the correct target. - ZLEA ^TǀC 02:07, 30 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

It works now. Thank you! - N198UA (talk) 12:22, 30 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
