An article which you started, or significantly expanded, Suzuki MR Wagon, was selected for DYK!

On February 1, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Suzuki MR Wagon, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

List of bestselling vehicle nameplates

I know you dislike a few things about this page, and now that an Austin Rover car nut has begun obsessively adding uncited figures for every mediocre seller the company's produced, I'm getting rather sick of it myself. I've half a mind to plunder the Volvo reference source and swamp the page, just to see how he likes it... Grrr.

Anyhoo, I had a quick look at Wikipedia:Featured lists, since I'd rather set my standards high, and over the past couple of days I've been working on an improved version. It's still a work in progress with plenty to be done (layout, factchecking and referencing, section headings, prose text to introduce each table), but once finished can probably be created at the more accurate "List of bestselling automobiles". After that, I reckon the old page could be moved to List of automobiles by sales, with the vehicles arranged alphabetically. That'd have the side benefit of overcoming what I feel is original research: ranking the cars when it's not a definitive or comprehensive list. For example, although the article's been cited by the NZ Herald, which wrote a story on the Lada being one of the top 10 bestsellers ever, I don't know if the Chevrolet Impala or Honda Accord could have demoted it in the last decade. I have the same concern about the two "top ten bestsellers" tables in the new page, which are entirely based on the old article. They may end up disappearing.

Looking forward to feedback, --DeLarge 23:58, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

What did you mean by hoaxing? I simply updated the links to point to the correct article rather than the redirect page.

Eurovan

Why you changed the Eurovan names to generations? It reads in the text section anyway, it looks stupid to have car name as 1st gen and aka consist all the official names.--— Typ932^{T | C}  06:35, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Yep but thats little bit different case as in those pages the main box has the car brand and model, this case it looks like the car name is eurovan.. but maybe its ok --— Typ932^{T | C}  08:37, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Dimensions in Infobox Automobile

I have edited all the automobile model articles in the Spanish-language Wikipedia (that include infoboxes, which are only around 50) to turn the engine field into prose text and merge the length, width, height and wheelbase fields into one (codenamed "dimensions", labelled "length / width / height / wheelbase"). The engine swap is easy, I come to the English-language Wikipedia and read the engine information; then I write a full text with each engine including capacity, maximum output, fuel and sometimes Xcharged/aspirated and valve number stuff.

The dimensions change is more difficult because some models have many body styles (es:Peugeot 307, es:Renault Mégane) and listing all of them takes a lot of space. But the merge makes the list shorter -- a single quartet takes only two lines.

Perhaps the best way to spare space is to remove the engine field, given the almost infinite quantity of automobile model articles. -- NaBUru38 04:41, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Chicago Theatre

I have made many of the changes you have suggested. The article is certainly better as a result of your guidance. I am not sure if I have achieved the WP:WIAGA standard, but it is certainly closer. I am going to repost as a WP:GAC. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 16:59, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
