Cool Start on Classic Cars

Great pass at the classic cars page! Keep it up! -Joe 21:34, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

Agree with Joe...very nice start! LuvWikis 15:10, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Prominent Personalities

I have a quick question. Are we going to have pages for people involved with the automotive field? Out of curiosity, I searched for some people (Giovanni Michelotti, Giorgetto Giugiaro, Carrol Shelby) to find that no pages have been made to list their achivements.

Argen 10:04, 08 December 2006 (UTC)

That's an excellent idea! It makes sense to have such a section dedicated to important people in the automotive industry: past, present, and future. If you want to get started and create such pages let me know and we can build out a separate portal and category for this. Thanks Argen! -Nidhi 15:00, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Home Page

Hi Argen, nice work on the classics! I'd be inclined to not list all the discontinued makes on the home page-- there would be so many. Could we group them in a prominent classics section instead? What think? LuvWikis 14:54, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi again Argen; I agree that Classics isn't the best name, since not all are Classics. How about: Classics and Vinatge? Or you may have better ideas? My knowledge of that area doesn't hold a candle to you. LuvWikis 15:09, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for reversing the vandalism

Much appreciated. LuvWikis 17:50, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Buick Wildcat Concepts

Just letting you know, I am going to move the page to Buick Wildcat concept series (it makes more sense). 0-172 4:43, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations

On your home page celebrity-ness! Well-deserved. LuvWikis 14:03, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Impressive work on the Packard articles. Nice images too. 0-172 (Talk) 4:50, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Triumph

Looking great so far also!! LuvWikis 10:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

I've Seen this Unusual Hummer on a Website...

Will you create an image gallery page and use this image?

This is a 6-door Hummer H2.

Revamping our Pages

Added four new ideas and removed one in the Pricing section. In case any of you would like to change your votes, now's the time.

Sorry

Hey sorry about posting articles from press releases. I could always edit them to describe the vehicle more than praise them if needed. The Chrysler Holdings LLC page was pretty biased since it was from their 'about us' page on their website lol. I changed it so it isn't anymore, but the page still needs more work.

I understand where you're coming with the American Companies as well. They've disappointed me plenty of times, I just hope they can do better. Like for the past nine years, Chrysler has been technically a German company, not American. So all, (or most), of their screw ups could be blamed on them lol. I hated the Jeep Compass for a while, but I found out that they do have a 4x4 model. Although it's not trail rated, it still makes for a pretty good Ralley car. The Patriot on the other hand doesn't make sense to me. They already have a Grand Cherokee and Liberty. They Patriot just fills a niche nobody knew was missing.

Bureaucrat Position

I would like to put forward my nomination for Bureaucrat Status. Besides being the most frequent contributor on this website, I am working on projects such as establishing an Anti-Spam bureau, and further renovation of our pages that I feel would require these Bureaucratic powers.

Spam Police

...Speaking of which, I would also like to officially announce the formation of the Spam Police program. Basically, a spam police is obligated to perform RC patrols everytime, he/she logs in. The point is a more organized way of dealing with these pests. There are two units to join into, Admin-Sysops, being that they hold more power, join the "Officer" Ranks, while members obtain "Deputy" status and will only be obligated to report such breach. I am planning to change this situation, though, if and when I recieve "Bureaucrat" status by granting members the power to block IP addresses and seize and protect "spam hotspots". For further information and to sign up, go to Wikicars' Anti-Spam HQ.

Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution

Is this a concept car or is it a Racing vehicle? If so you should use either on of these templates instead; {{subst:concept Model}} {{subst:racing Model}}.

Maybach Template Image Voting

Just so you know, we are currently holding elections for which image will grace the Maybach Template in Garage Talk. Your vote would be most appreciated.

Capella/Cosmo

Honestly, I just didn't have the time to do the same to the Cosmo. Alot of the Mazda pages, imo, needs some kind of updating. No offense but they're pretty barren as they were. Red marquis 06:32, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
