Misc. comments

This article should probably state what "ULM" and "RPV" means. — Timwi 21:06, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC) Can someone categorically state when the first FT was reported? Is there an archive which catalogued the first proper Flying Triangle sighting?

Ontario 2010s video

Hey, not sure how to work this into the article, but the maintainers might be interested to know that a video of a black triangle was shot some time in the 2010s https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/14wygn7/this_was_taken_from_a_friend_of_my_dads_while/

The uploader's reddit account had existed for a year before the upload, and wasn't previously involved in the UFOs subreddit.

Would it be worth adding a section for this? Given that it was filmed? It's kinda heartbreaking that there are only two photos here, one of them's a hoax and the other is suggested to be a formation of orbs rather than a black triangle.

Reddit is a WP:USERGEN source. Wikipedia requires WP:RS. - LuckyLouie (talk) 00:13, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why would a RP be needed here? What would they be adding?

To make this clear though: I'm not making this my problem. See ya. Myas012 (talk) 17:48, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
