Barnstorming

The best place to question this sort of thing would be on the articles' talk page. The Reliable Sources page is a discussion on what constitutes a reliable source. Also, if you have well-cited information, then go for it - fix the article!CredoFromStart ^talk 18:32, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Comment also via reliable sources noticeboard: agreed. However, the general guidelines on weight and emphasis (see WP:WEIGHT) are that articles reflect viewpoints according to prominence; and as far as I can tell, "barnstorming" in the flying sense has become the predominant meaning rather than a "narrow interpretation". But it would be perfectly appropriate to add a historical/etymological intro to Barnstorming explaining the pre-aviation origin and other uses of the term.

October 2016

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but it appears you have written or added to an article about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.
