Hi Jmstarry. To create a new article, the easiest way is to type the name of the page you wish to create into the search box and hit search. If the article does not exist, you will get a prompt to create the page with a redlink; just click on that and start adding your content. Best wishes, GILO   A&E 00:08, 3 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Honda NT700V

edit

Currently Honda NT700V redirects to Honda Deauville, since it is a local market name for the same model. It was merged last year after a short discussion. Similarly, Toyota Echo redirects to Toyota Yaris. Wikipedia:WikiProject Motorcycling generally follows Wikipedia:WikiProject_Automobiles/Conventions#Names. So there's really no point in requesting that a Honda NT700V article; it already exists. If you think the NT700V article should be unmerged, you could explain why at Talk:Honda Deauville and see if other editors agree. But do carefully read Wikipedia:WikiProject_Automobiles/Conventions#Names so you understand the guidelines. Or ask questions at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Motorcycling.
