Hi Phoenix, is there is a certain reason (concerning this edit) why it is mentioned for two artists, that they were ANSI artists, while there is no further information about the other artists? Or could you add some more details to the other artists too? Thanks! -- Scooty (talk) 20:26, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Thanks, was difficult to tell what they were. Lesson learned. Thanks (Regushee (talk) 19:17, 15 April 2009 (UTC))
I've proposed Ad-Libs Improvisational Comedy Theater, an article you edited but didn't create, for deletion via WP:PROD. --I dream of horses (talk) 16:31, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
I could create a 1955-1957 Chevrolet article covering all models from that generation which could include the Beauville article as that proposal would cover only three model years and there would be space for the Beauville merge. I contributed much to the Bel Air article revising its eight generations and including all the images, and its not finished as more text needs to be added on Bel Air models. I was thinking of doing a 55-57 Chevy article anyway..(there is a '57 Chevy article) So I'll start on that after Bel Air and Impala are finished and merge the Beauville to the new 55-57 generation article. I listed this first on the list on future projects on my user page.(also see my user page-current projects for the work I've done to the Bel Air article) Let's remove the tag to merge the Beauville into Bel Air though as Beauville can only be mentioned breifly within the Bel Air article, as article must touch on eight Bel Air generations and many models over a 35 year period none of which are, or could be covered as the Beaville is covered on its own current page. I will start on the 55-57 article right away, then I can merge Beauville article into a proper home. Regards I Vegavairbob (talk) 15:51, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
I understand that trivia sections could spark people trying to find as many television and film appearances as possible for a specific type of car, but the cars and films I selected were notable cars from notable films. For example, a car driven by a key character in a memorable moment from a Bond film is far more significant than, say, a car that was driven by an unimportant character in EastEnders.

They are from the 1977 Gas mileage guide, on the US dept of energy website. I believe these are EPA figures, maybe I am mistaken on that point. I can properly source the chart, if you like though. Here is a link to the source:
http://www.afdc.energy.gov/afdc/pdfs/1977_feg.pdf
Did you think I just pulled this figures out of the air? Have you actually seen what I have done to improve this article compared to the poor information that was on here before?
The point of the chart was to show that Chevrolet had smaller car in 1977 which resulted in imporved mileage over its main competitors. It is entirely relveant to explaining why Chevrolet made the changes to its car, why its "smaller" fullsize was more successful than the competition since fuel economy was so imporatnt at the time. Your article on systhesis states not to have multiple sources to draw one conclusion. These figures for all vehicles are from the same source.
I still see no valid reason not to include the chart, and I don't see why it was removed. I will wait for your reply, but my intention is to add the chart again, and source it.
Caprice 96 (talk) 19:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
So as it stands, other than your suggestion that the chart shouldn't be included, is there any other reason it shoudln't be there? That chart was added quite sometime ago, and has never caused any issue until lately. I resent the implication that my information is impartial; my hobby is the car - everything from history, to maintenance, to restoration and everthing in between.
The intent of the chart was not to act as a "consumer guide" or to show that the Chevrolet Caprice was superior to its competition. The chart is there to simply show that how revolutionary (for the time) this car was compared to the older competition. Obviously Ford and Chrysler caught up, GM just happend to be the first to downsize the fullsize car - AND this was HUGE for the time. I understand your point that it could be summerized in a sentence, but the chart offers a lot more information to someone who is learning for the first time about vehicles from this era. Personally, to someone like me who studys facts and figures, and others car guys I know, the more information the better.

To quote from your philosophy: "Exclusionism is philosophy held by some Wikipedians that seeks to maximize the usefulness of an article by removing irrelevant or superfluous information."
On this reasoning, you deleted from the Honda Insight page information posted by me that was both relevant and useful. In the immediately preceding paragraph, various extremes are quoted in respect of fuel economy (or lack of it) in non-real life situations. For anyone wanting to use this Wiki to actually find out about this kind of vehicle in real-life usage, actual verified data is much more useful than manufacturer's claims or the results of "record breaking" trials.
I am not an unknown URL, or a "fanboy" (surprised that you would use such an ugly term in view of your desire for good English) but a prolific contributor to Wikispecies. If your intention is to delete relevant, useful, verified information, then you are not an Exclusionist but a Deletionist. I have no intention of starting a war by reinserting my information immediately. Instead I will give you a few days grace to consider what you have done and to justify to me why the information I posted is either irrelevant or superfluous.

Someone asked columnist Rich Heldenfels of the Akron Beacon Journal who the voice was in the ads. He found out. No, it wasn't a known celebrity. Why not have the information available on Wikipedia? If you don't like trivia, there are any number of articles you can go after.
As for me, I like trivia and frequently look for it on Wikipedia. If I'm at home, I certainly don't want to go to unfamiliar sites. Or even most familiar ones.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:16, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Well, I can concede that it wasn't a notable ad. The question was about whether it was a celebrity.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 20:27, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

The article SoundTracker has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
{{dated prod}}
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Marasmusine (talk) 10:11, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
Hola. I'll give you the Grand Prix and Bonneville, but the GTO? What is the rationale for this? roguegeek (talk·cont) 19:39, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
I personally feel that an article that is only an infobox, especially one that has sat for 10 months in that state, does in fact qualify for speedy deletion as lacking meaningful content. However, it was made clear to me at my second RFA that a mere infobox is enough to avoid speedy deletion. I don't like it, I think it's silly, but apparently you and I are in the minority. I have re-nominated it via WP:PROD, which you can endorse using {{prod2}} if you wish. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:04, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
I have nominated List of audio trackers, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of audio trackers. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Regarding Chrysler Crossfire top speed edits. See the Mercedes-Benz R-170 platform page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_R170 Both the Mercedes SLK and Chrysler Crossfire are built on that platform, they have same performance stats. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ArcticPhantom (talk • contribs) 02:00, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello Vossanova, I see you are having troubles on the General Motors page with User:Miesianiacal. I would just like to inform you that myself, as well as countless other editors have have issues with this problem editor. His sole purpose on wikipedia is to link the queen and monarchy to anything and everything, most of which are false or questionable. I have reverted his edits again today, which you had already reverted yesterday. I will try and keep an eye on it. Cheers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.198.8.70 (talk) 17:00, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
I'd say that an official announcement on the Mercury website stating that the brand is closing down in 2010 would be about as good a source as you can get and as opposite to crystal balling as you can get. 2010 *is* the present - the dates in these car articles don't go by months. Do you really think Ford is going to reverse it's decision and resurrect the Mercury brand at the last minute?? Davez621 (talk) 17:08, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 01:16, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed you reverted a change by a user saying erev/Erev do not redirect to Chevrolet Volt. If you put either in the search it will go directly to the Volt's article. As for his Disamg edit I was pondering on what to do with that myself, it's an odd link, and not sure it's needed. Mcmatter (talk) 15:58, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Hi Vossanova, today you removed a large section I had added on the Honda Accord brakes issue. The reason you gave was that HondaProblems.com & CarComplaints.com are not allowable sources; I noticed that issue is already being discussed on the Accord Talk page so I'll continue that discussion there.
However in your edit you also removed a section I had written on the brakes class action for which I had provided three sources that were not CarComplaints.com or HondaProblems.com: the official circuit court settlement website, the website of the class action plaintiff's law firm, & a New York Times article. However for that particular paragraph's removal, you provided no explanation. I believe the paragraph you deleted & the sources I provided are acceptable. Let me know why apparently they are not, so I can try to work around your concerns. If it was a mistake, please restore the content you inadvertently deleted. Thanks!
