"Broken address" link removed

In the edit you made to the Chevrolet Corvette on 02:15, 5 September 2006, you claimed you removed a link due to it being a "broken address". I'm not sure if you're internet connection isn't working properly of if you're just making it up to justify the deletion, but the following link you removed is clearly working properly.

*The Corvette Story - Complete Corvette history, with facts, options, performance statistics and photographs for all Corvette years.

I'm not saying it shouldn't have been removed, but I am saying don't lie about the reason you justify your edit. --Roguegeek Sorry, I tested the edit and it didn't work on my PC. My connection to the net works fine, so I assumed that the link was broken.

BMW M3 GTR

Hey dude, I saw you removed the BMW GTR from the "Nordschleife fastest lap times" saying it's not a street legal road car. You're wrong on that one. It is a street legal car. Suggest you change it back. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.87.109.82 (talk) 10:10, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, you're right, the BMW M3 GTR is road legal, but as soon as you put slick tyres on it, it is not. If that time was done on road tyres, I'd happily add it back, but it wasn't. All the other times are by cars on road tyres. Personally, I believe that there is too little proper control of the entries on the list, including all the differences between the car and how it rolled off the production line.

honorable

hi as you started removing honorable mentions, could you remove all, there are plenty more .. --— Typ932^{T | C} 12:16, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I intend to remove more when I get a chance, though many do deserve to be mentioned (cars which are of disputed production status, or such and would hold the record were they actually production cars). Nasty (talk) 13:26, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Raw Engineering

A tag has been placed on Raw Engineering, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.

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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. -- Mufka ^(u) ^(t) ^(c) 12:34, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Raw Engineering

A tag has been placed on Raw Engineering requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article and put a note on the page's discussion page saying why this article should stay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please use deletion review instead of continuing to recreate the page. Thank you. -- Mufka ^(u) ^(t) ^(c) 14:06, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mondello Park image

I noticed that an image you originally uploaded back in 2007 is now on the commons as File:Striker on trackday.JPG. I wonder do you have any other images taken at [Mondello Park]] that could be used in that article. TIA ww2censor (talk) 14:05, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but that's all I have Nasty (talk) 11:55, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh well. Thanks anyway. ww2censor (talk) 17:47, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kit Car

Red Links

Wikipedia:Red link which says "However, rather than using red links in lists, disambiguation pages or templates as an article creation guide, editors are encouraged to write the article first, and instead use wikiprojects or user spaces to keep track of unwritten articles." since they are in a list and as most have been there over two years, and there is no indication that any of them meet the WP:CORP inclusion guidelines I have removed them, feel free to add back when an article is written.

List of Sports Cars

Please explain why you removed all of the Car's classes(Supercar, Roadster, and Sports Cars) Seqqis (Talk) 00:00, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I felt that this legend was not useful when the most appropriate info is in the table under the style field. Since all of the cars in this list should be sport cars, there is no need for that class (it is redundant). The body styles field can be used to give much more detailed information than just roadster or not and you will notice that I have preserved the appropriate info there. I think that the layout that had been in effect was not likely to scale properly to the length to which this list is destined to grow. If there is any way that you think you can improve the list and its usability, please feel free to make the appropriate changes. Nasty (talk) 06:40, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Car classification

You seem not to agree with my decision of replacing discontinued cars with cars currently in production. How about I separate historic cars from current cars. Example;

Example of historic City cars:

Examples of modern city cars:

As mixing the examples of historic and modern cars together doesn't seem right. Seqqis (talk) 05:51, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I generally feel that encyclopaedic articles should stand the test of time and include both currently relevant and historically important information, so I agree that your idea has merit. The only concern I have is that the current article is quite long and adding more examples than 3 will make it considerably longer. Feel free to make the change (I won't revert it or contest it), but I'd suggest that you discuss it on the talk page too. Thanks for taking the time to discuss this.

Please don' t delete all my links and titles if you disagree with one part of my edits. I am trying to help list car types under the right titles. I can not edit all at once because i'm using a tablet and only explain my actions at the last edit.
