How is this a legitimate category? What are the criteria to determine what belongs in this category? Jmabel ! talk 00:32, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy keep - Jmabel Looks like I made a mistake when creating the category. I accidentally pasted the name of another JetBlue aircraft, I ♥ Blue, instead of the proper categories. I've fixed the issue. To answer your question, JetBlue Airways gives names to their airliners often containing "Blue" puns (see Category:Aircraft of JetBlue Airways by name). The names are often applied to new aircraft when older aircraft are retired, making it necessary to have categories for the names that include the various registrations of aircraft that carry them. - ZLEA T\C 03:43, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It should probably be noted that some JetBlue names may not be recognizable as true aircraft names (for example, 1. Fly JetBlue 2. Repeat Step 1 or How's My Flying? Call 1-800-JETBLUE). However, all of the names in Category:Aircraft of JetBlue Airways by name can be easily verified as legitimate. The names that have not been retired outright can be found on JetBlue's website. - ZLEA T\C 04:07, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@ZLEA: that's fine. I'm sure you can see how I could not have guessed any of that from the way you initially left this (no parent cat, no explanation). - Jmabel ! talk 07:32, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Closed, cat is fixed, now makes sense. - Jmabel ! talk 07:32, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
