On 12 March 2022, it was proposed that this article be moved to Orion International. The result of the discussion was not moved.

Gallery gone

I have removed the image gallery within the article itself, and moved the whole thing to a page on Wikimedia Commons (see Commons:Orion Bus Industries). I've linked that new page to the article. I've also improved it a bit, with better organization as well as a few new pictures. This move also entailed moving some images to Commons, which also benefits the project overall.

Why did I move it all? Bottom line is that I hate galleries directly in articles. However, this is also a great improvement over before, since it makes the article less cluttered, and better organizes the gallery. SchuminWeb (Talk) 02:41, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Er... did ya really have to do that? R38 4010 01:39, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Galleries are tacky in the article itself. SchuminWeb (Talk) 03:28, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NO MORE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS

Please do not add more images here or created a gallery which is not needed it at this time. BWCNY 16:15, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redone like the New Flyer article

For current models ONLY, representative pictures of each model have been placed in the article. See New Flyer Industries#Current and Gillig#Current models for other examples of how this has been done. This will likely also be done for the NABI article. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 18:21, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It needs to be redone on a table. All the bus products article look crap. BWCNY (talk) 05:37, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done in a concise table format. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 07:04, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup tag

I've added the cleanup tag because the sections on the products need to be reworked. They presently look like a strange sort of list, and read like it's advertising, even if that's not the intention. These ought to get refactored into true paragraphs and reworded to sound less like an ad. SchuminWeb (Talk) 10:42, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The products sections still read like advertisements, so I've tagged the article as such. SchuminWeb (Talk) 03:48, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The products section was converted to a table, for both current and discontinued. I am proceeding to do the same for the New Flyer and Gillig articles. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 07:04, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Time to replace logo

When visiting Orion's website, Orion has introduced a new logo along with the Orion VII Next Generation. ANDROS¹³³⁷ 00:10, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done---new logo uploaded.--AEMoreira042281 (talk) 06:51, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article name

The article name is correct as it is at Orion International; as the home page calls it there, it must be referred to as here. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 17:13, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Need basic company info

How much money does the company make? How many buses does it make in a year? Who are its major customers? -- Beland (talk) 06:48, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Aidepikiw-nick, Any evidence? TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 06:21, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: Article cites no source for that renaming, and the editor who proposed the page move has never responded to TheBirdsShedTears's question above, "Any evidence?", in the three weeks since the question was asked. SJ Morg (talk) 09:18, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per SJ Morg. Also, the WP:COMMONNAME is what matters, not the latest official name (whatever that was). That seems especially true for this company, since it seems to be defunct (as a company). So what matters is what name it was primarily known by, not whatever name was adopted last before it ceased to exist. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 17:58, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
