  Comment: The titles Ronald Bussink and Ronald Bussink Professional Rides already exist as redirects to a section of Ferris wheel. An administrator would have to move this submission over one of those redirects if it were to be accepted. Robert Skyhawk (T C B) 16:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I think Ronald Bussink is where it should go, not Ronald Bussink Professional Rides. 92.11.238.139 (talk) 18:09, 30 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Bussink Design edit

I have removed the Bussink Design section. It didn't mention Bussink himself, of the two third-party sources one, the Süddeutsche, didn't mention either him or Bussink Design, the other, Amusement Today, mentioned Bussink Design only in passing without mentioning Bussink himself. R80XL.com is not a third-party source. Per WP:WEIGHT and WP:COATRACK we should not discuss stuff in this article that no reliable third-party source connects to the article's subject.

‎92.41.176.229 added another couple of sources, with one third-party source, the Munich Abendzeitung, actually mentioning both Bussink and Bussink Design, while all others mention at most one (or neither). And for that one we should cite the original Abendzeitung article, not R80XL.com's copy. I don't think that lone source suffices to justify a lengthy section about the company in this article, especially as the paragraph is chock-full with primary sources and synthesis. I'll instead append one sentence to the section discussing the other R wheel variants. Huon (talk) 21:15, 29 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
I have reinstated a revised version of the section. A single non-third-party source (r80xl.com) is cited as the definitive source for the height, as other sources vary without explanation, and actual height may vary between examples and installations. 188.29.202.221 (talk) 23:19, 29 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
