i noticed some airlines that fly to Bandarankaike International Aiport such as MyTravel Airways are not shown on the list. Can someone please update this page?

Tokyo Nitra?

In the list of destinations for Sri Lankan, "Tokyo Nitra" is listed. What is Nitra? Should it be Narita? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.79.62.16 (talk) 12:11, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, and I fixed it. Thanks for pointing it out. Next time please feel free and correct the article yourself. Happy Editing! --snowolfD4 ^{( talk / @ )} 12:24, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Misplaced [edit] links

I have noticed the [edit] links for section 2 and section 3 have been misplaced down the page and is appearing on the airlines and destinations table. Could someone please help clear this up? Thanks. Pilotofthefuture1 (talk) 10:13, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Bandaranaike International Airport

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Bandaranaike International Airport's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Route Map":

From Emirates destinations: Emirates Destinations
From Singapore Airlines destinations: "Singapore Airlines Route Map". Singapore Airlines. Retrieved 30 November 2011.
From Kunming Changshui International Airport: "SilkAir Route Map". SilkAir. Retrieved 30 November 2011.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 10:37, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

http://www.airport-technology.com/projects/bandaranaikeinternat/
Triggered by \bairport-technology\.com\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

From your friendly hard working bot.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 11:53, 3 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 20:35, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
