Talk:List of bus models

This is NOT an attack page!--213.107.74.132 (talk) 09:17, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contribution. It would make more sense if you described the intended geographic scope of your list. Is it world-wide, or just countries that drive on the left side of the road, or England, or countries that drive on the right side of the road, etc.?

I don't know. It is from en.wiki, I just made it simple.--213.107.74.132 (talk) 12:30, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you should work on articles that represent your area of interest. How do you know that the En Wiki article has not been vandalized and is an accurate representation of the materials presented? A good list article describes its scope, so that the reader will know what is there, and other editors will know what should be added. Thanks, Racepacket (talk) 04:48, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Vote Yes and No. I will do whichever gets the most votes.--213.107.74.132 (talk) 14:27, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No - you already have enough pictures on the page. Racepacket (talk) 04:46, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes - dozens of photos in one place, bigger than the thumbnails. BTW, we need at least 5 votes before we do anything.--213.107.74.132 (talk) 08:06, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the more the merrier. Sbs882y Sbs882y (talk) 23:09, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Photo size[change source]

Please vote if you want 70px, 120px or 170px thumbnails. Thank you.--213.107.74.132 (talk) 08:08, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This is what they look like:

Model name	What this bus is	Who makes this bus	The year the bus was made	Extra notes
70px	70px	70px	70px	70px. A bit small, is it? But people can use the zoom function on the internet browser, can't they?
120px	120px	120px	120px	120px photos. It is 120px at the moment.
170px	170px	170px	170px	170px. What do you think? Big, or just right?

Peer review[change source]

Positives[change source]

It lists most existing bus models.
It gives pictures.
It gives descriptions of the pictures.

Negatives[change source]

It is unsourced. Nobody will ever vote for an unsourced article to become a Good Article.
It has many red links. Another thing that will stop people voting for it in GA.
Actually, all but 7 of the buses are redlinks. Yet another thing that will stop it becoming a GA.

Conclusion[change source]

Sorry, but definitely not good enough to become a GA. I would get to work creating the red linked buses, because someone will have to otherwise the page isn't ever going to become the GA that you obviously want it to be. Needs a lot of improvement. <br\>I will keep checking back on this page to see its progress. Orashmatash (t • c) 19:36, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Glitch on phone[change source]

When the screen is shown on a phone, the table of buses does not work. Please work on this glitch. Thanks. Sbs882y. Sbs882y (talk) 23:08, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Update[change source]

I've updated the page essentially copying everything from the English Wikipedia article, I realise I may of removed entries etc however the EN article was alot more up to date and so it makes sense to have both articles up to date instead of just one being up to date and the other not so much, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 15:28, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
