== Why no terminal 4? ==
==Statistics==
Removed this statement, which appears to be true (from forums on Airliners.net) from flight/passenger numbers at ORD:

=="Modernization plan" section==
First off, it looks like the "modernization plan" section has not been updated in a while. Second, should that section be merged into the "History" section? Much of the events listed in the modernization plan section took place quite a while ago and it may not be appropriate to continue to give it its own section (then, of course, I'm not sure what the exact status of the plan is as it does not appear to have been updated in a while). --[[User:1990&#39;sguy|1990&#39;sguy]] ([[User talk:1990&#39;sguy|talk]]) 02:08, 23 April 2017 (UTC)

Alaska Airlines hasn't flown nonstop to Los Angeles in over a year... Please remove that destination from the list. [[User:Kmohammed33|Kmohammed33]] ([[User talk:Kmohammed33|talk]]) 01:46, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
==Infrastructure==
In the past, history of runways was both here and in the earlier sections about the history and growth of ORD. I'm going to make a judgement call and say that the references earlier are sufficient, and if additional fleshing out from there is needed, I honestly don't think it belongs in this section. Here the discussion should be as to facilities, runways, infrastructure as it currently exists, imo... maybe in the event a lost pilot brings this description up while flying? slight LOL[[User:Chidino|Chidino]] ([[User talk:Chidino|talk]]) 06:01, 1 April 2018 (UTC)


== Air India to Hyderabad ==
== Add airline terminal assignments? ==


The O'Hare terminal assignments are listed on the airport's official printable maps, so I think they should be included in the article. Something to the effect of this:
Stop adding Hyderabad! Many users have repeatedly added HYD as a destination for ORD even though HYD-ORD-DEL is not on the same plane. There is a change from a 777 to another 777 in DEL. Additionally, per [[WP:AIRPORT-CONTENT|bullet #7]] of AIRPORT-CONTENT, flights travelling through hubs on the same flight number should not have the final "flight number destination" listed. --[[User:Irehdna|Irehdna]] ([[User talk:Irehdna|talk]]) 00:49, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

{{u|Chidino}}, I am having trouble giving this a B rating. I don't feel the [[WP:LEAD]] is really a summary of the article. If the LEAD is not decent, I can't support B.

In 2007-2010, families from more than 1000 homes in Bensenville, Il. were forced to sell their homes after the Chicago authorities condemned all properties in the entire municipality after invoking eminent domain in order to gain the land for the O'Hare Modernization Project. I think this needs to be added to the article.

I am not a big fan of the current summary of the Terminals section. N. B.: In the end the LEAD will have to be 3 or 4 paragraphs (4 is the max for a quality LEAD).

Would the following be more acceptable?

--[[User:Funarchitect|Funarchitect]] ([[User talk:Funarchitect|talk]]) 20:25, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

@Funarchitect As a contributor to this page that has struggled to help provide a consistent voice, I hope you don't mind my chiming in.

I believe this is an excessive amount of detail that doesn't serve O'Hare well. (As trivial as it sounds, if you boost the Terminal 1 coverage, an equal amount dedicated to Terminal 3 will magically appear.) This section, in particular, is dealing with the progress of the airport in the 1980s. Current architectural recognition, right before returning to construction on Terminal 3 in the 1980s, is abrupt and IMO misplaced in this section.

Further, I sincerely do not mean offense to AIA Illinois or to you, but this is, at best, trivial praise. "One of 200", as @Magnolia677 pointed out? And I'm sure the [[Chicago Architecture Foundation|CAF]] has a separate list, and so on... but in an effort to provide context, a quick Google search turned up the ''full'' AIA naming it "one of the best ten works of American architecture completed since 1980."<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.architonic.com/en/microsite/jahn/5204979}}</ref> That exceedingly impressive award isn't in there (maybe should be), but none of the architectural awards it, Terminal 5, and the L station have racked up are listed, simply because we're always struggling to keep this an ''introductory'' article and not meant to function as the Encyclopedia of O'Hare.

Bensenville eviction controversy

[edit]

In 2007-2010, families from more than 1000 homes in Bensenville, Il. were forced to sell their homes after the Chicago authorities condemned all properties in the entire municipality after invoking eminent domain in order to gain the land for the O'Hare Modernization Project. I think this needs to be added to the article.
