Speculation about the future of the ride

[edit]

This article had a section about the speculation surrounding its possible move to Carowinds or Canada's Wonderland. Because Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, I have removed this until sources are provided for each of the claims. Unfortunately, most of the information I know about the speculation comes from forums; we need more reliable sources than that, if we can get them. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 22:33, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New Information

[edit]

I visited the park yesterday, September 3 2006, and the ride was no longer open. The ride does not appear on the park map, but lights on the exterior of the building were on.

From what I have heard, it has still been open during September and October, though not on all of the park's operating days. When it has been closed, the fence has been up around the ride, as it was earlier in the season. I read a message this morning from somebody who went to PKD yesterday; he said he was able to get several rides in on Flight of Fear. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 16:36, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that it has appeared on the park map at all this year. I haven't seen any of the maps guests have gotten, but the online version of it has never had FoF on it. FoF is still in the list of thrill rides on the park's website. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 16:38, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

[edit]

I believe this and Flight of Fear at Kings Island needs to be merged, They are the same exact ride besides for the trains. --Astros4477 (talk) 02:59, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Flight of Fear (Kings Dominion)Flight of Fear

Ok i just merged the Kings Island article into this one. Now this article just needs to be moved to Flight of Fear. --Astros4477 (talk) 02:24, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not against a move but it should not be a cut-and-paste move as has been done here/here. —  AjaxSmack  00:12, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I know I agree, it wasn't supposed to be copy and pasted. I merged the articles and I requested the move but I wasn't sure if it was actually moved or just copy and pasted. --Astros4477 (talk) 00:41, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It was a cut and past merge to this page, both history's still need to be merged to this page. --Nickvet419 (talk) 03:42, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's impossible to merge more than one page's history into another as you are suggesting. Flight of Fear (Kings Dominion) could be merged with this one provided the original revisions of this page were deleted (i.e. the dab page revisions). The best you can do is the two tags I have added to the top of this page in the same edit. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:21, 4 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

[edit]

I believe these two coasters need to be merged, I looked at rcdb and they have the same statistics and are the same ride. --Astros4477 (talk) 02:58, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

First to open

[edit]

It is a common misconception that Kings Island's ride opened before Kings Dominion's. I understand that some enthusiasts groups were told this by Kings Island personnel a couple of years ago during a behind the scenes tour of the ride — but it is not true. The first test was done at Kings Dominion and Premier Rides issued a press release the following day. Both parks had their media events on the June 17, 1996 and both opened the rides to the general public on June 18, 1996. For some reason, however, all the Premier Rides "bigwigs" were at the Kings Island media event, even though Kings Dominion is closer to their headquarters in Maryland. There were also some unconfirmed reports of Premier Rides and Paramount Parks people taking test rides on Kings Island's coaster as early as June 14, 1986.JlACEer (talk) 17:27, 22 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dates in the article and other points of interest

[edit]

Vertical Venom, you have ignored comments in edit summaries about dates, in particular this one that you keep changing. We don't need the full date here, as the exact date of the announcement is trivial. The fact that it occurred in August 1995 is precise enough. Full dates should be reserved for more important occurrences, such as opening and closing dates.

You have now been asked to participate in discussions here and at Talk:Mr. Freeze (roller coaster), yet you are ignoring these opportunities you've been given to work through these disagreements. This may end up being one of the last chances you'll get to choose discussion over edit warring. I suggest you take it. --GoneIn60 (talk) 20:10, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
