I'm seeing two sets of passenger counts for this accident. One is what's in the article (177 passengers plus six crew); the other is a report of 177 total occupants on board, including 6 crew and 171 passengers (Reuters UK and The New York Times examples). Currently it appears too soon to tell which is the correct occupant/passenger count, and either is plausible (Pegasus Airlines 737-800s can seat up to 189 passengers).
As this is WP:RSBREAKING, we'll need to pay attention to sources and update the article accordingly to ensure the most reliable information is reflected. Shelbystripes (talk) 17:15, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Business Insider (key source in the article) has updated from 183 and now also says 177 occupants. I will update the article. Shelbystripes (talk) 18:22, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Aaaaand now the AP source in the article says 179 injured (which would mean more than 177 occupants). NPR is reporting the same (though they're using the AP as their source). So this still isn't quite settled yet. Shelbystripes (talk) 01:44, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Anyone else thinking this is bloated? Suggest culling all except the other Pegasus Airlines accident for now. Mjroots (talk) 20:46, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
