Brillance Auto

Hi, I deleted your additions to Brilliance Automotive because you didn't add any citations. Sorry to delete your work, but we need to me able to make sure what you add is true. Fleetham (talk) 05:47, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

May 2010

Please do not add or change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Dodge Charger (B-body). Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Manway (talk) 04:08, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of "Ghabbour Group"

A page you created, Ghabbour Group, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how it is important or significant, and thus why it should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for companies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Jusdafax 15:10, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Quality assessment removal

Please do not remove WikiProject quality assessments from talk pages, as you did here. That article is obviously a stub, there is no good reason for you to have removed it. --Sable232 (talk) 01:31, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Wallyscar

A tag has been placed on Wallyscar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Articles for deletion nomination of Trucks and Bus Company

I have nominated Trucks and Bus Company, 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/Trucks and Bus Company. 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.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. SnottyWong ^gab 18:10, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did to Ford Ranger, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Sable232 (talk) 22:44, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

What should there be incorrect? --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 22:50, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

The truck that the article is about was never built in most of those countries and was never built by AutoAlliance. The Ford Ranger sold in most places outside of North America and a few South American countries is a rebadged Mazda and has absolutely nothing to do with this truck outside of the name. --Sable232 (talk) 23:06, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for your information. But this is not a reason to threate other wikipedia members with blocking their accounts. It is good that their are member which control the changes in the articles. But I think they should be active to and have to inform the other user about their mistake and can add the information to the right article also. This part works very good in the German wikipedia. But I miss this in the English version very much. --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 23:13, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Ford Transit

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Ford Transit. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Empty Buffer (talk) 12:08, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Fiat Doblò

Hi , are you sure Doblo is produced by karsan? if you look at http://en.karsan.com.tr/areas_of_practice/detail.aspx?SectionID=w%2b5XSIZu9oQRSZ2T2yDqeQ%3d%3d&ContentId=i7Tw5hz1PE3loUcixo%2fA9A%3d%3d it says: Karsan manufactures Partner and Berlingo LCV's for PSA Group (Peugeot-Citroen) and Renault Premium (Lander, Long Route) and Kerax HCV's for Renault Trucks. --Typ932 ^T·C 07:05, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes, the Doblo is manufactured in this plant. The other versions are made by Tofas. Karsan is only manfacturing the LCV versions of the Doblo. The Partner and Berlingo are also made. All other vehicles of Karsan like buses and trucks are made in the Nilüfer plant which is also located in Bursa, Turkey. --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 13:11, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Ford China

The recent edit you've made to the Ford Transit article doesn't really read correctly and the reference for the information is a dead link. 90.206.63.235 (talk) 15:51, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Mitsubishi Lancer

I feel that changing all of the headlines across the Lancer article is not useful. Just because a car happens to have been built in the Philippines for one year longer than in its domestic market does not mean that this is how it should be referred to. Much like the names of articles usually reflect the name in the domestic/main market, so should the section headers and infobox data. All the best,  ⊂ Mr.choppers ⊃  (talk) 19:07, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

That'S right. But it's the time of production/assembling. So it should be correct or this fact should be deleted from the wikipedia. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a collection of any personal information. --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 19:11, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

First of all I want to apologise for having deleted all of your edits, I was in the midst of a very long edit and didn't know how else not to lose all of the changes. I will go over and bring back many of them.

As for the years, it has been decided by the Automobile Project that Article titles should reflect the domestic market, (or all English-speaking markets if the domestic market is not English speaking). I don't see why section headings and infoboxes should be any different? Additionally, there are already problems with editors conflating different generations of cars (especially so for Mitsubishi, who use so many different names interchangably), and this would only get worse if we expand the years to reflect everything that was available for an extra five years in Nigeria or whathaveyou. When there is an important market with more expanded dates, that can be shown on a separate line in the infobox, as I did for the Lancer Fiore

In sum, I feel that we are trying to decide between two choices, both correct in their own way, and so the choice must then become the logical one, the one which causes less confusion rather than more.  ⊂ Mr.choppers ⊃  (talk) 21:04, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Audi 50

Please can you take a look a Talk:Audi 50 and tell me what you think.

The guy who wrote that it was built at Wolfsburg had a good source for it. Your Mom is the best possible source for its having been built at Neckarsulm. So I vote for "both".

Garuda Matraman Motor

I had not mention that the Audi R8 will be locally assemble in Indonesia or not... I think it is a supercar, so it is fully imported from Germany. 120.141.102.162 (talk) 00:57, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

The R8 is assembled by Garuda Matraman for the South Asian market. The parts therefor are all imported from the production facility in Neckarsulm. There was no ther possibility to offer this model in other markets outside Europe and America without an second location for assembly. A decision like that depends everytime on the number of orders. But if you want to know where a car was built, you must check the vehicle identification number. In this you can find which company had manufactured the parts (position 1 to 3) and in which location this car was assembled (position 11). The Volkswagen and Audi models which have been by Garuda Matraman in Jakarta have the letter J on the eleventh position. So theres definetely no other discussion about this topic. --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 01:27, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Is the R8 only supercar assembled in ASEAN?120.141.102.162 (talk) 01:53, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Yes, there are companies in india which are assembling Bugatti and Porsche models. Another location of Porsche assembly is in Malaysia. In the next year there will start a manufcturing of English supercars by HICOM Automotive Manufacturers (Malaysia). But this are only some firms. I think there is much more. --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 02:11, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Volkswagen Passats

Is Volkswagen Passat (excluding CC) available in Indonesia? 120.140.250.160 (talk) 07:51, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

No it isn't officially offered on the Indonesien market. The VW Passat CC is only assembled for the Thai market. --TheAutoJunkie (talk) 12:17, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Roewe 250/350?

Hi, can you point to any sources to verify your claim that the Rover 25 has been sold by SAIC as the Roewe 250 or 350? AFAIK, this is a Roewe 350, and it's not a Rover 25! Regards, Letdorf (talk) 20:54, 21 April 2011 (UTC).

In your opinion this is a Maxus? No, Gazelle Businnes and Sobol Businnes is a only modernized Gazelle/Sobol from 2003 year (first lifting).

In Poland was a 2 factories Daewoo. Daewoo-FSO Motor in Warsaw, was produced standard cars and Daewoo Motor Polska (DMP) in Lublin, older FSC. DMP was production delivery van Żuk (1959-1998), Lublin (1993-2007) and off-road vehicle Honker. In Poland (Lublin) produced Maxus (type LD-100) was only plans, unrealized for financial reasons.

Garuda Mataram Motor

Hallo, I just wat to say that the correct name is Garuda Mataram Motor, not Garuda Matraman Motor, then, Garuda Mataram Motor is only assembly the Touran and the Golf in Indonesia. Other models, they fully imported it from Germany. So, it is absolutely impossible that they assembly Audi R8 in Indonesia. RaymondSutanto (talk) 00:48, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Nissan Patrol, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Rosslyn and Kanda (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Jaguar, Land Rover and Jaguar Land Rover

Jaguar and Land Rover are wholly owned subsidiaries of Jaguar Land Rover Ltd but still exist as separate legal entities. So your claims that they're now defunct are not true. Thomas.W (talk) 11:56, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

see: http://www.jaguarlandrover.com/pdf/changeofname.pdf (unsigned edit by TheAutoJunkie)

It's a change of name with the same company number as before, not a transfer of assets or a liquidation, which means that it still exists as a separate legal entity and is by no means defunct. So don't change things you don't understand. Thomas.W (talk) 14:42, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Thomas.W. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Jaguar F-Type, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. When you find out where the alleged "secret plant" is, and can provide a reliable source for it, you can add South Africa as a country of asssembly, but not until then.
