10 March 2025

• 22:3822:38, 10 March 2025 diff hist +71 United States →Transportation: Fix convoluted syntax; transportation "in other northern Northern cities" is vague and ill-defined. Better to list actual U.S. cities with significant public transportation.

• 17:1817:18, 6 March 2025 diff hist −2 United States →Transportation: Using the wording of other WP articles, notably American Airlines: "merger", not "acquisition".
• 17:1317:13, 6 March 2025 diff hist +1,437 United States →Transportation: We should give more weight and stats to the air transportation paragraph. U.S. airlines and U.S. airports are leaders in world air travel, and that should be cited.

• 01:2901:29, 6 March 2025 diff hist +5 United States →Transportation: Can't begin sentence with a figure (WP style). Air travel coverage in the U.S. is the most extensive in the world, and its largest airports host the most passengers. To reduce this section to perfunctory details serves no useful purpose.

• 00:3600:36, 6 March 2025 diff hist −381 United States →Transportation: Delete sentence re "three largest airlines", as source is in error. The page cited (32) actually shows "Top 60 Worldwide Airports Comparison", where the top 7 are US airports. Needs review.

5 March 2025

• 23:3423:34, 5 March 2025 diff hist +187 United States →Transportation: Edit for clarity, and identify the actual "busiest airport" superlative cited in text (accompanying photo caption doesn't suffice). Must cite page number outside Wiki reference.
