Hello
I'm the user that edited the 2001-2005 section of the Honda Civic Si page, and I was wondering why you deleted it and moved parts of it to the main civic page.
I spent a large amount of time adding information relevant to only the Civic Si of that generation, so I'm unsure why it was removed.
Thank you

Guten Tag, durch Zufall hat ein Freund von mir die beiden Fotos von meinem Audi 80 (siehe Link im Betreff) im Internet entdeckt. Nicht nur, dass diese Fotos ohne mein Zustimmen aufgenommen und veröffentlicht wurden, zusätzlich ist auch noch das Nummernschild meines Autos und auch ich (drinnen sitzend) zu sehen! Ich finde das ehrlich gesagt ziemlich unverschämt. Datenschutz und das Recht am eigenen Bild werden hier wohl kaum beachtet. Zumindest hätte das Kennzeichen geschwärzt werden müssen! Und natürlich vorher um Erlaubnis gefragt werden, bevor man ein Foto im Internet hochlädt! Bevor ich jetzt weitere rechtliche Schritte tätigen werde, kann ich anbieten, dass wir uns gütlich einigen: Angesichts der Tatsache, dass hier Datenschutz und das Recht am eigenen Bild maßgeblich verletzt wurden und die Fotos ohne meine Einwilligung gemacht und hochgeladen wurden, sehe ich eine finanzielle Entschädigung von 200 € als angemessen an. Nicht zu erwähnen brauche ich wohl, dass die Fotos umgehend entfernt werden müssen.

And:
Recht am eigenen Bild. Die Panoramafreiheit an sich bezieht sich nur auf das Urheberrecht. Sind beispielsweise auch Personen in einem Film zu erkennen, dessen Urheber sich bei seiner Wiedergabe des Aufnahmegegenstandes ansonsten auf die Panoramafreiheit stützen kann, so bedarf es zur Verwertung nichtsdestoweniger der Einwilligung der Abgebildeten (§ 22 Kunsturhebergesetz [KUG]). Das zugrunde liegende Recht am eigenen Bild kennt eine „Panorama“-Ausnahme nur in den Grenzen der Beiwerksregelung des § 23 Abs. 1 Fall 2 KUG, wonach die Nutzung von Bildern, auf denen die Personen lediglich als Beiwerk neben einer Landschaft oder sonstigen Örtlichkeit erscheinen, nicht einwilligungspflichtig ist. Siehe hierzu den Artikel „Beiwerk“.
Hi, excuse me for my disturbance. I recently have been working on the stuff of the 2500GT, and I've noticed that you changed the engine cylinder-distribution from "flat" to "inline". Tbh at first I thought that the cylinders were in the form of "inline" as well, but after a nice guy added that the engine was from Subaru, I corrected it into "flat". So here I want to know if the cylinders do be in the form of "inline", or just still under controversy? Thanks for your answer. :) ArcTempesta ( talk) 15:23, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

In regards to the 1587 vs 1588 cc thing - fair enough. The printed mechanics books list either one, it changes seemingly at random for the different print years.
I strongly disagree with access-date serving no function. Following the guidelines for how to cite, citation style and everything else I can not find something that says that archive-date on it's own is a suitable substitute. Looking at other articles, featured ones and non featured ones, there are plenty that have both an archive-date (as is required) and an access-date. One reason why I think that access-date is sensible to have is to account for website changes. The archive is, hopefully, such that it accurately matches what was cited. But a website can change in that information changes slightly, or gets lost completely while the linked page itself remains. It also allows an interested reader to know when the citation was either created or seriously worked on. That's important as for example a several year old access-date on a citation indicates the need for a possible update or at least a look at the link. The archive-url and -date only show what once was, for when a website has gone down or a page gone missing.
Please do not hastily remove them from the article in the fashion that you have done. If there is previous discussion about the usage of access-date I haven't come across it. As I understand there is also a degree of flexibility on how these citations can be formatted, usually the first editor chooses a style to their liking.
As a random IP using 'my' talk page isn't likely to get a response in a timely manner. Will watch yours, that will work better.

Hello Mr.choppers, How have you been? I'm currently in a bit of a dispute between a user (Vauxford) in relation to his images and I thought, you being the expert in car photography are able to compare and see which of the two is better. Vauxford keeps reverting my edits for unnecessary reasons and he usually ignores some of the guidelines on OSX's WP:CARPIX and also he believes that junk orange picture he took on his iPhone is better quality, where I have been following the rules that have been established since I have arrived here. I only came to message you because I would like you to take a look at both images and come to a conclusion to see whos is better.
I will get Vauxford to get his own version of the story and post his version of the edit here, and to tell us why he belives his is better. Again, this is not me relying on my own ways. This is what has been established on Wikiproject Automobiles and therefore I follow this guideline. Vauxford on the other hand doesn't really follow this guideline, instead he relies on his own judgement. I'm not sure whether I'm getting much further with him. Although my image has maybe a slight sunshade ting, it doesn't mean that its a bad image, compared to Vauxford's Sportage. If you believe his is better, I will not make any further reverts and the dispute has been solved.
Please respond, I would like to see which is better so the dispute has been settled. Cheers EurovisionNim (talk to me) (see my edits) 03:51, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi Mr.choppers
Vauxford made a recent edit (as I said on his talkpage which we discussed) and I was wondering why he thinks that his image is at a better angle to mine. I was going to follow up with you, but I don't see a need to revert as I agree with Vauxford, his is higher quality. I don't mind his contributions, I have no problems with him, but he seems to be fussy over some of my edits. I have a firm editing style but I am generally not biased with my photos (except maybe in the last 2 months or so). I am not being lazy, in fact, I was the one who begun before Vauxford in relation to his images, he keeps trailing me with uploads i.e. when I upload, he'd upload before me and often accuses me of being "lazy" and thinks I should take my own path. Well I'm sorry for him, but I was the one who first uploaded pics of international worldwide vehicles from Australia. Seriously, he should focus mostly on cars that are in the UK, such as Vauxhall, Rover, Jaguar, Land Rover etc. and leave the Asian cars to a person who is from another country, say Singapore, India, Malaysia or Australia. I generally have now not bothered picturing Suzukis because I know Vauxford would be focusing on the newer ones, so I've now just left out the European models out. You, OSX, M 93 & Charles01 are my favourite car photographers. Sadly IFCAR left, but I really liked some of his American images, but Vauxford keeps insisting his is better. Not only I'm upset, but I seem a little downtrodden and feel like my images have no value on Wikipedia, rather its being kept as an archive on Wikipedia. I think for this and to prevent further conflict we should have a team role and divide up the sections as see fit:
Please note this is only a suggestion, but i think this should be easier to prevent future conflicts. Its not mandatory, and I am open to discussion. I also believe that if we keep to these guidelines, everyone is in a happy place :)) EurovisionNim (talk to me) (see my edits) 07:57, 5 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi Mr.choppers I really like your photos you upload, however I would like to advice you to refrain from using auto mode. The reason being is that sometimes it doesn't really work out. I suggest begin with Aperture Priority and use f/4.5 - f/5.6 because it has a large aperture. Do you want me to email you the attachment of the cheat I got from a Facebook group chat about aperture and stuff. Thereby you can produce high quality shots.

Hi, regarding this edit: I still don't see the reference that says the Dacia 1310 P was built in Poland. That's an information held exclusively by you.

Hi. You have a photo here - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Post-1974_Checker_Marathon_A12.jpg - and it looks to be the exact Checker I am searching for. It was last seen in Tijuana, MX/San Diego, USA, and was owned by Mother Antonia, a nun at the prison in Tijuana. She passed away in 2013 and the only photo I have of her with the car is from the mid-80s. More on her here - /info/en/?search=Antonia_Brenner though it doesn't mention her car. I am particularly interested in her Checker cab because I, too, am a gringa in Tijuana and I drive a Checker Cab!
Can you tell me any information about where you saw this car, when you saw it (I noticed the pic was dated in 2012), and any other info at all that you might have about it?

You added a photo and I have my doubts about the year. There was a book I looked at some years ago which showed the same design for all Ford trucks from 1948 to 1950 and then a different design in 1951 and 1952.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 15:36, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
About my on the Toyota Noah article, there is clearly a difference between the AWD and 4WD systems. The Noah that sold in Japan does not provide a transfer case to switch between all-wheel or front-wheel driving modes like the traditional 4WD system does. This can also be applied to the other non-SUV JDM cars such as the Toyota Mark X. The definitions here also explain that. 180.244.54.144 ( talk) 12:24, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
The most common forms of all-wheel drive are:
4×4 (also, four-wheel drive and 4WD)
Reflecting two axles with both wheels on each capable of being powered.
SAE Recommended Practices
Per the SAE International standard J1952, AWD is the preferred term for all the systems described above. The standard subdivides AWD systems into three categories.
Part-Time AWD systems require driver intervention to couple and decouple the secondary axle from the primarily driven axle and these systems do not have a center differential (or similar device). The definition notes that part-time systems may have a low range.
Full-Time AWD systems drive both front and rear axles at all times via a center (inter-axle) differential. The torque split of that differential may be fixed or variable depending on the type of center differential. This system can be used on any surface at any speed. The definition does not address inclusion or exclusion of a low range gear.
On-Demand AWD systems drive the secondary axle via an active or passive coupling device or "by an independently powered drive system". The standard notes that in some cases the secondary drive system may also provide the primary vehicle propulsion. An example is a hybrid AWD vehicle where the primary axle is driven by an internal combustion engine and secondary axle is driven by an electric motor. When the internal combustion engine is shut off the secondary, electrically driven axle is the only driven axle. On-demand systems function primarily with only one powered axle until torque is required by the second axle. At that point either a passive or active coupling sends torque to the secondary axle.
In addition to the above primary classifications the J1952 standard notes secondary classifications resulting in a total of eight system designations:
Part-Time Non Synchro System Part-Time Synchro System Full-Time Fixed Torque System Full-Time Variable Torque Passive System Full-Time Variable Torque Active System On-Demand Synchro Variable Torque Passive System On-Demand Synchro Variable Torque Active System
On-Demand Independently Powered Variable Torque Active System
Fanboying would be saying that it does 12.5s stock. I have Best Motoring videos that show the MKII GTO MR beating the R32 GT-R and R33 GT-R in acceleration tests. I didn't link them. I also have a video of a bone stock 1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 doing a [email protected]. Didn't link that either.
I'm an older mechanic. I've worked on all four and driven all 4. The Z32 TT and the FD3 TT were slower in a straight line the VR-4. It's proven.
What's wrong with legitimate sources from major magazines? They never got the Z32/FD3 under 13.7 ET or trapped over 105mph. Edmunds tested a 1999 VR-4 and did a 14.0@105 - id link that as well but it's gone.

Hello, I recently started photographing interesting cars I see around. Although, I am always afraid that someone will confront me when I take pictures, which usually leads to me taking them from a distance and cropping them to just show the car I want to photograph. This means that the pictures turn out much lower quality than I would like. Could you give some tips on how to take better images and not being so obvious about photographing cars on the street?

Ok, I get the no speculation part, but I thought encyclopedia was to catalog information on items and how they changed over time. I guess you are saying Wiki is not interested in detailed changes, but just general, high level looks. I kind of did not think I was being super detailed, but just taking the 10000 foot view and not the 10 inch view.
Is there an article I can be pointed to as an example to follow on how detailed or not detailed I should get. I am glad I did not spend the time doing the same year to year changes for the STI.
I know you deleted a lot of content, but for that material you deleted, was I including enough references or do I need to be more or less detailed in the reference section.

Thank you so much for your recommendations. I will spend some time studying these, and not go enthusiastically charging ahead.

Hello, Mr. Choppers. Hope you are doing well. If you remember, at the time there was a screwy edit with the Opel page that, quote "ruins the page leaving only the Opel insignia and an error message." (that is what I said on the edit at 20:17, 11 April 2012) You responded on my talk page with "Sorry, didn't realize how screwy that edit was. Also hadn't noticed all of the German English on the page... Apologies." Now today at 5:59 UTC you posted on my talk page "Not sure where you copy-pasted all of this text from, but it is a copy-paste of several chapters of Karl Ludvigsen's book Opel: Wheels to the World. I know this happened a hundred (8) years ago and I do not hope for any repercussions, but if you have committed any other similar copyvios I strongly recommend going back and deleting them." I did NOT add that text, nor have I ever heard of the book "Opel:Wheels to the World" till I read your post today. On April 11, 2012, I was playing with the text to see what was causing the error message, as seen here:
20:17, 11 April 2012 (diff | hist) . . (-58,836) . . Opel 20:09, 11 April 2012 (diff | hist) . . (+43,596) . . Opel 20:08, 11 April 2012 (diff | hist) . . (-102,382) . .

The edit where I added 43,596 bytes of data was me adding text back that was already on the page, and I did it to see if I could fix the error message. The stuff from the book by Karl Ludvigsen (which I assume is all that WW2 stuff from what I saw you deleted) was, from what I could find, added on 13:35, 26 January 2010 by a user named Ds1863.

Hey again, I saw you reverted my edit on the Maserati Quattroporte article, mentioning the removal of spaces in the infobox. Firstly, I wanted to clarify that it is not me doing that, it has something to do with my system or my browser and the way they handle Wikipedia. Of course, I know that doesn't make it any less irritating for future editors, so I was wondering if you knew what could be causing the issue? Because I honestly don't know what is causing it. My knowledge of the tech aspect of Wikipedia is very limited. Second, I wanted to ask, about the edit you reverted, did you simply revert due to the whitespace stripping or did you also not agree with the change of image?

I removed it for two reasons.
First is simply because the displacement is self evident from the model name, for example "3.0" LPi is 29xx to 30xx cc ....etc.
Second, I added top speed to that table, to avoid putting too much info on that table and make it wide and large.
Your revert reinstated the displacement but removed the top speed as well.

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect GM S platform. Since you had some involvement with the GM S platform redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. Tsla1337 ( talk) 16:12, 23 April 2020 (UTC)

Dear Mr. Choppers, I've brought my dear M3/99, E36 silver convertible, from the USA to the UK about 10 years ago. With the pass of time the top became soggy and green of algae so i had it changed last year. Unfortunately it seems the seals around the doors are not longer holding the water when it rains so it's flooding the interior really badly as it deposits and stays on the floor. (a car cover around here is not an option as the wind has damaged and blown away all the covers I've bought). So my next and possibly best and cheapest option would be to convert the top to a hard one. Only thing is that I'm having a hard time finding a hard top for my car here. Or if you had any advise on the change of the seals, or parts from others than BMW as they are SO expensive! ANY help or referrals or information that you could share i would appreciate it very much, just let me know please.

Thanks for your reply, I guess i misunderstood your posts as i saw the picture of a converted hardtop M3. ;-) I'll keep searching, Cheers!
Hey Mr Choppers, FYI there's another AFD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Isuzu Giga (2nd nomination), Letting you know as you left an editor a message on the deletion of the article, Many thanks, Regards, – Davey2010 Talk 17:13, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
Is everything fine with you? How come you not ascertain the fact that the Cerbera is a 2+2 and is a grand tourer? Did you even read the cited sources? Do some research next time so that your errors are not misinformed at this level. U1 quattro TALK 17:04, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
Sorry to bother, I just want something you said on the ANI clarified. "I have observed U1Quattro pushing several other editors over the edge in the past. I could be wrong, but I remember at least User:Typ932, User:Vauxford, User:Ybsone, and User:1292simon all getting in hot water over altercations with U1Q. There are probably more. I don't know if their statuses warrant any sort of reconsideration? Obviously they should have all been better at dealing with situations, but it has been frustrating to watch mostly good editors leaving and getting blocked." I should held accountable as well? Even my dilemma happened over a year ago and I moved on from that.-- Vauxford ( talk) 13:23, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
Hello! You asked for an explanation here. Have you heard that PRNEWSWIRE is a press release service? It's a terrible source, signed at the bottom with "Dukas Linden Public Relations" and their contact info. Why on earth would you revert that? ThatMontrealIP ( talk) 19:46, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
The panel truck page should not (at least in my opinion) be merged in the panel van page, since a panel van is based on a car chassis ( sedan, hatchback, and station wagon), while a panel truck is based on a truck chassis ( pickup truck, SUV, or in some rare times of a crossover). Also the HHR was inspired by old panel trucks, so it should be listed here and the T2 had a fully enclosed body and was taller than some other European panel vans of it's time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aertgan ( talk • contribs) 04:20, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
As you see the Chevrolet panel truck is based on the chassis of the Suburban which is an SUV, also as the HHR is stated in some sites as a crossover [1] [2]. And panel trucks are mainly built on a pickup truck chassis, I mean it's quite obvious, just look at a ford pickup from the 50s and a ford panel truck from the 50s. So yeah?
Hi Mr.choppers. I'm getting confused why the Pontiac G6 had two different stylings. I knew that they did a facelift for the mid-2009 model year, but I can't tell which of these images is the 2009.5 model. Was there a further facelift that sold very little before Pontiac's demise? Thanks. -- Vauxford ( talk) 17:20, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
Okay, I decided to give up on the panel truck article. Are you happy now? Also, why did you called me "an editor who is trying to expand the definition and is marking everything he can as a panel truck"? Anyway, do what you want with that article. Wish you the best. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aertgan ( talk • contribs) 16:12, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
I added a sentence that the Bedford TA is the European equivalent of the GMC New Design. Just look at the New Design and the TA. They're identical if not the same cab (with some minor changes) being used in both vehicles.
You changed the article. So, I have some questions: 1st: are you a law enforcement agent? 2nd: are you a neutral part? 3rd: are you a brazilian federal and/or state law enforcement agent?
I'm just asking.

PS:
I would like to know about your training in public security. Because I see that you have none. For me, it is a case of a Swedish citizen editing in an article about Brazil, a country you have never visited.
Bryard ( talk) 15:23, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
I am part of a "task force" created on Wikipedia whose mission is to monitor articles on law enforcement forces. If someone vandalizes the article or does not dominate the subject, I inform the senior editors. From the moment you are working on an article that is not your business, you are entering an editing war. And I don't think you're fluent in English enough to say whether my grammar is good or not. If I need English lessons I look for a teacher. And, they always approved of my pronunciation and grammar.
Next time, be more ethical and polite.

There are only 6 Swedish citizens that interest me: The Queen, Joel Kinnaman, and the members of ABBA. And, contrary to what you think you know, there is an internal hierarchy in wikipedia. Not in relation to subordination, but an ethical brake. And since I have a subordinate relationship like you, I call this issue over. If you vandalize the article, I will have to report it to the right. Please do not insist on your modifications, or moral lesson. I have the impression that I am much older than you. So, your opinions: keep it for yourself. The Law Enforcement in Brazil article is under monitoring. Don't try to contact me again. Or I'll consider you a stalker. Consider that.
Here is the link to the project where I am a collaborator.

Should be pickup trucks with bed caps be seen as a category loosely succeeding that of the panel truck? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aertgan ( talk • contribs) 19:57, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
