Interesting template but I would use a different color than red for the "deadliest accident". At first I thought the article was missing then realize its just a just a morbid color choice. -- MarsRover ( talk) 04:45, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
According to the key, the colour should be orange. Is there any reason why it is red instead?? (i.e. unsolved crash investigation?) -- 79.79.133.122 ( talk) 23:56, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
How about something like this for these templates:
The date format for each entry should remain constant as MMM-dd, i.e. three-letter abbreviation for month, two-digit number for day. The italics/smallcaps system avoids the bold used on article pages.

I've implemented something along the lines of the above, using italics for incidents resulting in more than 50 deaths and bold smallcaps for the deadliest each year. I think this is the only combination that will (1) avoid the plain-bold Wikipedia uses for any link on a page that is to the page itself, while (2) permitting a distinction between a deadliest incident involving fewer than 50 deaths (bold smallcaps only) and one that involves 50 or more (italic bold smallcaps). 212.84.98.102 ( talk) 08:50, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Please start an entry about the Robinson R44-Astro, callsign 4x-bdm, crashed in Netanya, Israel on 24.11.09.
4 people had died including Ran Lapid, the pilot. The most exprienced helicopter pilot in Israel.
It happened due to a terrible technical problem, and is still under investigation of the NTSB and FAA.

I'm afraid I agree with several of the original participants in the discussion that the small caps look weird to the point of unprofessional. If trying to highlight the deadliest crash, perhaps it would be better to use a typographical symbol such as "†" or "*" as is usually done on templates to highlight particular entries?

@ WilliamJE: - as you've removed my addition of the Air Force One photo op incident to the template with the rationale that it "doesn't belong here", I'm invoking the D part of WP:BRD.
As the template is named "Aviations accidents and incidents in 2009", the event was clearly "an aviation incident" and occurred in 2009, I believe it meets all necessary criteria to be included. I would be interested to hear why you think it does not meet the criteria for inclusion. Mjroots ( talk) 21:34, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
