Honda C70 vs CD70

edit

The Honda C70 as offered in USA and Canada was a step-through "cub" model, not a "sport" frame. You can see pictures of this model at [1]. The most comprehensive listing of the North American models can be found at [2]. The step-through C70 was also called the Passport. The CD70 was never offered in NA. Can we make that distinction in the Honda list and in the article on the CD70?
Cheers,

Scan and upload

edit

If the posters were created by the motorcycle manufacturers then they could be tagged {{promotional}} and could be used only in articles about the model of motorcycle or maybe about the manufacturer. If they posters are from some other source then they may not be useable as fair use. -Nv8200p talk 13:53, 16 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Honda CD200 RoadMaster

edit

I deleted the bikez.com and bikepics.com links as possible spam. The bikepics.com link might could stay but the the bikez.com link has annoying popunders.

Need advice please

edit

I think the edits made to your original text are OK. The information seems accurate and matches the specs at Suzuki. Words like "legendary" show bias and POV and should be removed. -Nv8200p talk 21:20, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Just add the information back into the article and reference the source (Top Gear Feature, I'm guessing) in your Edit Summary. -Nv8200p talk 22:15, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Maybe the specs you want to put back in are subjective and not objective. If someone else did a road test, would it yield different results? -Nv8200p talk 22:17, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I'd suggest you read Wikipedia:Resolving disputes and follow the steps. I am not a good third party for this discussion as I don't know anything about motorcycles nor am I much interested in resolving disputes on articles about motorcycles. - Good Luck Nv8200p talk 14:53, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Nv8200p, thank you. This is exactly the point I've been trying to make to user Fireblade. If you have 10 different tests doing the exact same thing, you're going to have 10 different results. I have told him a couple times already that it's best to just stay neutral in these instances. I've pointed them several times to policies on WP:RS and how to properly cite sources WP:CITE, which they haven't. I'm simply at a loss of how to handle the situation. I will continue to edit based on policies set forth by Wikipedia and continue to point Fireblade to these policies when he does have a disagreement with my edits. The one thing I wont do is revert to the personal attacks Fireblade is now making. I've warned them and pointed them to this policy also. Roguegeek (talk) 00:18, 27 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Improper signature usage

edit

Why are you improperly signing all of your signatures? There are very specific guidelines dealing with this exact issue. Please read Wikipedia's policy on signatures. It clearly states the following:

"Signatures that obscure your account name to the casual reader may be seen as disruptive."

It's very obvious your signature goes against this policy. Please make changes as needed before continuing to sign with improper signatures. Thank you. Roguegeek (talk) 05:03, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Please note it uses the word "MAYBE" and its clear no one is trying to obscure anything, its a matter of choice. I leave the rest to the people reading this to se the obvious as I dont have to state it (fireblade)
Actually, I couldn't find that word anywhere on that page, but if you find it, might be a good idea to quote it. And yes, let's let the users decide if your previous signature was not trying to "obscure your account name to the casual reader". It was coded as follows: [[User:Fireblade|Matchless]]

No personal attacks

edit

I'm not fond of having to explain the same thing twice, but I've been doing it for you in discussion pages because it's going to help everyone if you understand certain Wikipedia policies. This one about "no personal attacks"... I'm only going to say once.

Please do not make personal attacks on other people, as you did at Talk:Suzuki GSX-R1000. Wikipedia has a policy against personal attacks. In some cases, users who engage in personal attacks may be blocked from editing by admins or banned by the arbitration committee. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Please resolve disputes appropriately. Thank you. Roguegeek (talk) 00:11, 27 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Exactly and I totally agree with you and hope it goes both ways. And just to clear the confusion I was just stating the facts on your page thanks (fireblade)
You wont have to worry about it. I've read the policy many times. Actually, you are only allowed to put warnings on talk pages if they are legitimate. Since I haven't done any personal attacks against you, it would not be a legitimate warning. Wikipedia considers this WP:VAND vandalism of another users page and I would be allowed to remove it and report the incident. Vandalism is another policy I would suggest you read up on because the admins here are very strict with it. Thanks. Roguegeek (talk) 07:41, 27 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
There is a difference between stating facts and Personal Attacks (fireblade)
Most definitely and you can find out exactly what it is and what it isn't by reading here. Roguegeek (talk) 17:46, 27 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Image:C70 st.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:C70 st.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (random) 18:57, 1 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

P.S. This also applies to Image:BWM1.jpg, Image:R1000.jpg, and any other replaceable non-free images you may have uploaded. – Quadell (talk) (random) 20:24, 1 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
