In order for this to pass the relevant guidelines ([[WP:LISTN]] and [[WP:NCORP]]) we would need multiple independent, reliable sources that give significant coverage to this ranking. I wasn’t even able to find one independent, reliable source that actually discusses the ranking for Oceania. At most it is possible to source a listing for specific routes (e.g., [https://archive.is/pezJn Australia-America]). It is entirely possible, given how aviation in Oceania is dominated by flights into/out of the continent, that the “largest airline in Oceania” is not even based there or on this list. |

This is a straight-forward failure of WP:V, WP:LISTN, WP:NCORP, and WP:NOR.
Particular, no source is cited for this ranking. Instead editors have created their own ranking by comparing the publicly-announced passengers-carried of a selection of airlines. This is an unverified, original-research WP:SYNTH of non-independent sources. The original-research nature of this article is emphasised by the way it stopped being updated in 2018 when the editors who created it lost interest. Quantas stopped publishing their data in 2019 according to their website so this may also be a reason.
In order for this to pass the relevant guidelines (WP:LISTN and WP:NCORP) we would need multiple independent, reliable sources that give significant coverage to this ranking. I wasn’t even able to find one independent, reliable source that actually discusses the ranking for Oceania. At most it is possible to source a listing for specific routes (e.g., Australia-America). It is entirely possible, given how aviation in Oceania is dominated by flights into/out of the continent, that the “largest airline in Oceania” is not even based there or on this list.
As for redirects there isn’t a single clear one so I favour deletion, but I could see Largest airlines in the world, Aviation in Australia, and List of the busiest airports in Australia as at least reasonable ones. FOARP (talk) 10:57, 14 October 2025 (UTC)
