[edit] Why did the idiot 217.189.147.6 delete the 2 new pictures?

Can the idiot that deleted the 2 pictures of the new terminal explain why s/he did it! Me and several other people did not spend hours in front of the monitor so you can delete our work in a matter of seconds! If you still pretend that you are not an idiot, plese give us your reasons for deleteing the pictures! Yeah, I am sure that you don't even know what I am talking about.

Firstly, it is against Wikipedia policy to call someone an "idiot".
Secondly, 217.189.147.6 didn't delete the images, they just deleted the links to images that had already been deleted.
Thirdly, the images were deleted because they were against Wikipedia policy (no copyright notice), because the person that uploaded it didn't follow policy in uploading them. The only person you can blame is the person that uploaded the image for not doing it correctly.
Therefore, assuming the person who uploaded the work is yourself, aren't you the "idiot"? --kjd 03:44, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
It wasn't even this person that uploaded the pictures it was another editor and the person that deleted them was User:Jaranda. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 04:13, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
I almost started feeling like an "idiot"! How would you feel if somebody wipes out your work without any explanation? If User:Jaranda deleted the images, how come I don't see his name under the history tab? I think I should ask User:Jaranda if s/he knows how to type in english, because it is highly recommended to give some explanation when you delete somebody else's work. And finally, I'll kindly ask User:Ogicito to spend another 30 minutes of his time to post his deleted pictures again this time without the copyright notice. Делян 13:26, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
User:Jaranda provided an explanation when they deleted it under the image's history page [1]. And it doesn't take 30 minutes to reupload a file to Wikipedia. --kjd 15:57, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Delyan, I'm not sure what your problem is. You didn't upload the pictures, nor did you add them to the article so nobody wiped out your work. By the way this is a Wiki and "your work" and "my work" gets edited (wiped out) all the time. All the work was done by Ogicito and they are not complaining. The reason you don't see Jaranda's name in the Sofia Airport history is because the pictures were deleted from their own image page and not this article. Jaranda did noting wrong and in fact should be complimented for protecting Wikipedia by deleting images that may violate someones copyright. I would like to see some sort of an apology to 217.189.147.6 and Jaranada for the rudness that you have shown them. Here's the link that shows Jaranda also delted the second picture. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 18:37, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Cambridge, you seem to be more concerned about Jaranda! Step in my shoes for a moment. How do I know that the images have their own page and I am supposed to go there and look for an explanation? Can it be more complicated than that? I guess the system is not designed with a human factor in mind! I simply go to the page and I see that the nice pictures are deleted, then I go to the history tab, which is the most obvious place to look for explanations and I see NO explanation there! This is like you having to pay a fine, but nobody tells you what the fine is for! Yes, the owner of the pictures is Ogicito, but him and me started the new title and that is why I feel some kind of ownership here! I doubt Ogicito will post images again! The damage has been done already! I am sorry to Jaranda and the IP guy, but I don't think that they even read this! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Delyan (talk • contribs) 13:32, 2 February 2007 (UTC).
It seems to me that there are several things you should read Wikipedia:Assume good faith, Wikipedia:Civility and Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. Thanks. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 18:15, 3 February 2007 (UTC)


Any chance somone can add a distance from Sofia city centre?

Wizz Air's Sofia-Varna flights start on 12th of July, 2008! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Delyan (talk • contribs) 15:36, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

OK, who added flights to New York and Montreal? Come out and show some prove.....Делян (talk) 19:44, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Winter fog & not-fully-operational ILS

I just endured an involuntary 7 hour bus ride from Burgas since the fog has prevented most air traffic to and from Sofia airport the last couple of days. I've been informed that fog is quite common during the winter season, and combined with a missing or not-fully-operational Instrument landing system makes this a common event. Any comments?
