I tried redirecting this page by following the directions on one of Wikipedia's Help pages but it seems I'm doing something wrong, I'm not sure. It will be up to someone else. There is already a page for this series here:

== National Geographic series ==
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Crash_Investigation
 
I'm confused. I was looking at [http://natgeotv.com/uk/air-crash-investigation/about National Geographics episode guide], comparing them with this page only to find they were inconsistent. eg The first one under series 1 "Crash Course" is listed under season 7 on [[List_of_Mayday_episodes]]. If there is an explanation, I would suggest it should be included within the article. It was a question that I was hoping to find the answer for! [[User:Periglio|Periglio]] ([[User talk:Periglio|talk]]) 14:03, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
"Mayday" is an alternate title.
 
:Hey there. It probably isn't updated. Use the latest [http://s3.amazonaws.com/cflx-videos/int/assets/401/Mayday_13.pdf 2013 episode sheet] [[User:Qantasplanes|Qantasplanes]] [[User talk:Qantasplanes|(talk)]] 06:57, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
"Mayday" is not an alternate.
 
== Should we unprotect the List of Mayday Episodes article now? ==
==Appropriate title==
The article was renamed ''Mayday'', since it's a Canadian production, and the title in Canada is as such. -- [[User:Airodyssey|AirOdyssey]] 01:41, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
 
Now that all Season 14 Episodes and titles are confirmed, should we unprotect the List of Mayday Episodes article now? <small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/2.100.134.171|2.100.134.171]] ([[User talk:2.100.134.171|talk]]) 16:14, 27 May 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
== Episodes 11 and 12 ==
 
== Should we put the original titles on the actual Season 14 list? ==
These episodes are not part of this series, so i removed them. Episode 11 (Crash of the Century/Collision on the Runway) is part of the Seconds from Disaster series, and Episode 12 is a separate documentary. [[User:SchueyFan|SchueyFan]] 08:52, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
 
 
Why aren't you putting the S14 Canadian titles on the actual list? <small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/80.44.230.158|80.44.230.158]] ([[User talk:80.44.230.158|talk]]) 16:00, 19 June 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
Are you sure about this? I just saw "Crash of the Century" a few days ago on Discovery Canada, and it was definitely part of the Mayday series. If it wasn't shown as part of the series in other markets, does that mean it's not part of the series?
 
== Creating category: Aviation accidents and incidents featured on Mayday ==
 
I don't know, it seems like it would work as a category. Don't expect any opposition [[User:Layla, the remover|Layla, the remover]] ([[User talk:Layla, the remover|talk]]) 16:13, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
SchueyFan, what do you mean by 'add source'? If "Crash of the Century" isn't aired outside Canada that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If 'source' means 'proof' I had recorded it and it's on my computer. [[User:74.120.184.186|74.120.184.186]] 01:42, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 
Well I guess I'll do it, no one responded and no one probably cares. [[User:Layla, the remover|Layla, the remover]] ([[User talk:Layla, the remover|talk]]) 16:35, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
Ok, i thought it was part of another series, as it was referred to at one stage as being 'also known as Collision on the Runway', which is a Seconds from Disaster episode. I didn't know that it was only in Canada. Thanks for proving it is a Mayday episode - you can add it back whenever you wish.
Also, why was it on Discovery Channel, when most Mayday/Air Crash Investigation shows are on National Geographic Channel. Seems confusing...

== Requested move 26 March 2017 ==
OK, I added ep. 11 back in. The channel I was referring to is Discovery Canada, by the way, which is quite distinct from the US Discovery channel. It is showing Mayday on Saturdays... and I suspect that ep. 12 was also shown, but I missed it, so I am not 100% sure about this one. [[User:vttoth|vttoth]]

Agreed. I wouldn't re-add #12 just yet. I've been keeping track of what TDC Canada was showing (a bit erratic with end of S3 and S4) and #12 hasn't popped up. http://www.discoverychannel.ca/_listings/

It would be nice to know why 82.7.41.51 removed some original episode names and replaced #11 with one I've never heard of.

*'''Move to [[Air Crash Investigation]]'''. [[WP:NCDAB]], natural disambiguation is preferred. Also this is the title used in most countries. Note that the [[WP:NCTVUS]] guideline seems to be currently rather silent on this WP:NCDAB issue whether or not parenthetical disambiguation MUST always be used if a television production, like this one, is broadcast in multiple countries, with different titles.

*'''Support a move, undecided on target''' - I agree the article needs to be moved given the UK series, but I'm unsure where it should be moved to. I believe Wikipedia policies would suggest the move to Mayday (Canadian TV series) is proper, given it is produced in Canada and airs under that title, however in every country outside North America is airs as Air Crash Investigation with British narration and often different episode titles, etc. Personally I would prefer a move to ACI but I dare say the nominators move suggestion will win out.

== Website link appearing in the infobox without being in the coding. ==
 
A link to a czech website appeared in the infobox present as the show's official website without actually being present in the articles's coding. I have been able to successfully hide it through adding a blank website field to the infobox. However the link is still present somewhere. It reappears once you remove the website field. It should be removed altogether as it is by no means the official website and links should not appear like that. Trouble is I don't know where it actually is situated in the coding.[[User:Tvx1|T]][[User Talk:Tvx1|v]][[Special:Contributions/Tvx1|x]]1 12:24, 23 June 2017 (UTC)

==Appropriate Article title ==
 
I’m starting to wonder whether we should rename this article Air Crash Investigation. That title has now even been adopted in Canada and [https://cineflix.com/shows/mayday-air-disaster/ Cineflix themselves call it that too now]. It has become by far the most [[WP:COMMON|common]].[[User:Tvx1|T]][[User Talk:Tvx1|v]][[Special:Contributions/Tvx1|x]]1 00:32, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
