XM603 is shown as being built in 1963 which seems odd. It is a B1A which were modified and upgraded from B1s. BY 1963 they had been building B2s for several years. 2.26.201.242 ( talk) 16:40, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
This has proven to be yet another complete waste of time, so going to try one last time with a general vote on the main Vulcan page, see
Talk:Avro Vulcan#Which Vulcans should have their own articles?.

I propose merging Avro Vulcan XM655 here. Or rather, I propose redirecting it, as there is nothing in the article that isn't already here in XM655's list entry. It was claimed by others in the AfD ( Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Avro Vulcan XM655) that enough sources exist to write a proper article, but it appears that there is no desire on the part of anyone to actually put that work in, not even to do the first step and actually identify the sources they found, so that others might use them, if they're not going to. As I tried to point out in the Afd, this leaves Wikipedia in the imho absurd position that it apparently considers XH558 and XM655 notable as individual aircraft, but not the only other taxiable aircraft, XL426, or indeed any of the other now static survivors detailed here. The article on XM655 existed for 5 years without anyone bothering to add anything from independent sources, whereas XL426 has never had an article (bar a straight copy-paste). As a formerly flying survivor (2007-2015), XH588 is obviously a special case, having notability as a separate aircraft in spades. While others appear happy with the status quo, I do not want this situation to remain for another 5 years, because it cannot do anything other than confuse and bemuse uninformed readers (as it did me when I first arrived), so I'm willing to open myself up to another round of ridiculous accusations that I'm on some kind of anti-Vulcan crusade in order to straighten the situation out (even though I'm clearly, by a country mile, the only person here with any recent record of adding material to Wikipedia about Vulcans). Having experienced Wikipedia's tendency to let even yes/no discussions ramble without conclusion/resolution, I will be asking the AfD closer, Sandstein ( talk · contribs), to formally adjudicate the result within a reasonable timeframe (not before 1 week, but not a year either). Alerts for the AfD participants below. Natural Ratio ( talk) 20:08, 11 December 2015 (UTC) (merge) :
