Will review. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 12:51, 29 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

General
  • GA toolbox checks out
Lead
  • Extend the lead by a few lines so that it covers all major aspects of the article
I added some more about production and partnerships, I hope that suffices.
Early years
  • Wikilink Renault, first mention after the lead
  Done.

Coming with more. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 14:56, 29 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Models
  • What are the sources used?
To be honest, I don't know. The list was there before I started to edit the article, and, as I found some resitence at removing it, I simply tried to match it with the French Wikipedia list, except for a few models. As founding a complete list from a manufacturer as Saviem is a nearly impossible task (as it sold some models from other manufacturers, mostly for short periods), I only can think of two possible solutions:
a) Removing the list entirely, which was my first idea, as it will always be incomplete. However, that can make the article a little less informative.
b) Adding models only if a rs to back them up exists. But then again, it will be incomplete. I made one list of that kind in my sandbox, and it would look this way:

Thanks for explaining the situation to me. Sources are needed no matter what, and some information is better than no information. Better go ahead and put on your sandbox list, editors can keep adding names when they find good sources. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 00:35, 30 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Done

Rest of the article looks fine to me. Excellent prose and sources. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 18:21, 29 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
