Hello Trekphiler. I wanted to drop a note of thanks for you addition to my change about the Hindenburg film item that I changed. I know it was a small thing for editors like us who have been around for several years but I thought it would be good to have better wording than I was working on. Cheers and happy editing.

Trekphiler, this article is all yours. I will not spend any more time on it. DaveyJ576 (talk) 23:59, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
actually i made a mistake. the information that the mines were actually used in battle were false, but the chinese did posses a few weapons called "Electric mines" mentioned in several sources.
the thing that was false was the depiction in the nianhua, no ships were actually blown up, but they were deployed.ΔΥΝΓΑΝΕ (talk) 18:07, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
it appears during the Battle of Dagu Forts (1900) a few "electric" mines were deployed by chinese on the Beihe to prevent allied ships from crossing through, and this was confirmed by the western sources, it was the other nianhua depicted events at the Battle of Shanhaiguan (1900) which were definitively BS.
it appears that the Chinese did have an electric torpedo factory at tientsen.ΔΥΝΓΑΝΕ (talk) 18:36, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
this source also says that china laid electric torpedoes in several areasΔΥΝΓΑΝΕ (talk) 18:43, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

What do you think of our efforts having their own sister project? I checked the other Automobile projects for something 'hot rod' worthy or relevant, but didn't spot anything that made sense. The rest are primarily racing related. Or maybe it should be a child of the Transport project? Something like WikiProject TransportModifications since it crosses auto, motorcycles, trucks, etc.
So far we've discussed people, trends, categories of customizing, notable custom vehicles, and events (shows). Plus it seems like there are ample articles to pull under this project heading. Wha'd'ya think? Scalhotrod (talk) 00:34, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
So with regard to making this a reality, my thought is to first compile a list of articles that would fall under the scope of the proposed WikiProject. Maybe that alone will help determine or indicate if it should be a sister or child project to Automobiles. I'm also thinking that the more subject matter related articles that can be located, especially those that are not identified as Automobile project, should help to support the case for the new projects existence.
With that list in hand, the Wiki-Powers-That-Be can be approached about the creation of the new project. Seem reasonable and/or logical? Scalhotrod (talk) 16:56, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Hey Trek, I'm still working on this, just a bit back burner for the moment. I am working on Roy Brizio's article finally. --Scalhotrod (talk) 04:41, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
This is a 3R warning on the Zimmerman Telegraph, and the advice to stop deleting sourced info. Take it to the talk page, where the consensus of editors is important. None of the information you are deleting is controversial, and you have not explained why you are blanking it. Rjensen (talk) 01:06, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
A rhetorical question about the writers' motives for a plot point is not something that is appropriately discussed on the Burn Notice talk page. It does nothing to improve the article; rather, it invites a discussion more appropriately held on the USA Network forum for the show. You might want to take it there.

Hi! Re the discussion on satellite solar power, while of course I have some interest in saving this nice little planet from human depredation, I'm mostly interested in it as a step up to getting us off Earth entirely, safely ensconced in the wider Solar System. I guess we are mostly agreed about that. :) Cheers, Bill Wwheaton (talk) 16:46, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Frederick Lindemann said a lot of things, but this memo does not square with the record. Bomber Command's target was the German economy. Morale-collapse was just a by-product of seeing through the destruction of the economy. Besides, Harris and Lindemann were not where British strategy eminated. Portal had the ultimate say, and his preference was the economy. Harris and Lindemann may have interpreted this to mean morale effect - both of them were no strangers in manipulating operational directives as much as possible to 'interpret' them in away that suited their own morale-based goals. If we asked Portal, he would deny the target in the Ruhr campaign had anuything to do with winning the war by destroying morale. The aim of the offensive in 1943 against the Ruhr was to devestate it in order eliminate German production and the means of Germany to resist. That said, Harris did not disobey orders mind, and it was not until Portal put his foot down in '44 and Harris was directly ordered onto oil and rail targets that the general economy/area strike method was scaled back. In fact only the Battle of Berlin was considered a morale campaign from start to finish by all concerned. Dapi89 (talk) 23:58, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
I think it was kind of drastic to remove the whole Guest Cast section. I put it back with only those people who were important to the episode they were in (it's debatable whether Sara Bareilles qualifies).

You can probably help with this. Here's what happened: I compared the block quote of the judgment in our article (by Baron Alderson) with the judgment at bailli.org (the EL). I thought the judgment at bailli.org would be comprehensive, meaning complete, but the block quote in our article has Alderson B saying things that are not at bailli.org. Bailli.org also has obvious errors, like "fats" for "facts". So, I concluded that bailli.org has omissions and errors, leading me to label the EL as "incomplete and erroneous" (or however I put it). I think our readers should be alerted to the fact that something is amiss here, but you probably know better than I do how to tag it or label it. I welcome your comments. 71.246.238.214 (talk) 23:23, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
Since you created Ango (weapon), I've got to ask for a source that explicitly distinguishes this "Ango" from "Angon". Because I believe this is exactly the same. Your article even cites Agathias, who is the main source for Angon, too. --bender235 (talk) 01:06, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month - 2011 Australian Grand Prix
The 2011 Australian Grand Prix (formally the 2011 Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on 27 March 2011 at the Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne. It was the 76th race in the combined history of the Australian Grand Prix that dates back to the 100 Miles Road Race of 1928. Originally planned as the second race of the 2011 Formula One season, it became the season opener with the cancellation of the Bahrain Grand Prix due to civil unrest in the country. The race, contested over 58 laps, was won by the reigning World Champion Sebastian Vettel, driving for Red Bull Racing, after starting from pole position. Lewis Hamilton finished second in a McLaren, and Renault's Vitaly Petrov completed the podium in third place, the first podium finish of his career and the first podium finish for a Russian national.

I have had my say in the discussion page for the article itself - the last paragraph of this I have moved here instead as it is a little unkind.
It might be an idea to wait for the "Bozo" to go back to whatever he was doing first? Otherwise he really needs to be confronted. The ideal way to have done this would be with facts, but since (typically) he makes up his own as he goes and at best has no idea of the difference between a good source and "howler" filled trash, full of ignorant "errors" - facts do not have the effect they should. When cornered, he just comes back with "I didn't say that" (he did of course) and just shifts his argument a little. "Feeding the troll" by conceding more than is his just due is unproductive, although of course we do need to be strictly fair when (and if) he DOES have a point. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 07:46, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month – 1980 Spanish Grand Prix, currently listed for Peer Review
The 1980 Spanish Grand Prix (formally the XXVI Gran Premio de Espana) was a Formula One motor race held on June 1, 1980 at Circuito Permanente del Jarama. Originally scheduled to be part of the 1980 Formula One World Championship, following the running of the race it was announced that World Championship points would not be awarded to the competitors, making it a non-championship race. The winner of the race was Alan Jones, driving for the Williams team. Jochen Mass finished second for Arrows and Elio de Angelis third for Team Lotus. Owing to disputes as part of the FISA-FOCA war, the race went ahead without the teams of Ferrari, Alfa Romeo and Renault, because the Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA), then the governing body of Formula One, had declared the race illegal. The other teams drove the race, now sanctioned by the Formula One Constructors Association (FOCA). All teams competing in the race ran Ford engines. Carlos Reutemann, Nelson Piquet and Didier Pironi all retired from the race whilst in the lead, Reutemann due to a collision and Pironi and Piquet because of mechanical problems. Only six of the twenty-two drivers who took the start of the race made it to the end, and only three were on the lead lap.

To Trekphiler: My opinion is Sun Liren is just a major general but in that article he is the major commander and leader. Xue Yue and Peng dehuai which I added are the captain general and joined many battle so I think they are more important than Sun. Xue and Peng are response for some amy group. If the major commander must be in Burma theater, I think the captain general Wei Lihuang is more important. Wei is response for whole theater and Sun is just the commander of one division. 210.53.1.98 (talk) 04:36, 4 May 2011 (UTC)210.53.1.98
Hi Trekphiler -- you seem to be following Chicago style in your insistence on "full name & title at first use". While certainly influential, Chicago is far from the only style guide in existence, and the referencing format you're prescribing is not only unusual among referencing systems, but is problematic for other reasons. Using pages of Morrow's book as an example:
Either:
Or simply, for every reference:
There are numerous other examples. What I'm trying to show you is:
I put it to you that short-form citations make much more sense in Wikipedia articles because:
Note that the Chicago long-form system arose in the context of printed books, where a footnote containing a citation would usually be separated by many pages from a full bibliographic entry at the end of a chapter (at least) or book (more usually). A long-form citation does indeed make sense there. I suggest that it makes no sense at all here. --Rlandmann (talk) 13:33, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
This is to notify you that an RfC has been opened regarding proposed edits in Chevrolet Vega. The discussion is located here.
My thoughts are that in these respects, the Vega article should be significantly edited: it should reflect clearly the Vega's legacy, it's role in the US auto industry and it's marred track record. It should be considerably more concise. It should rely less on fan trivia and less than transparent sources. And it should include less of one editors photographs, personal vehicles and promo photos from General Motors. That's the basic thrust for me. 842U (talk) 21:34, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
To answer your query, yes, a citation comparing Definition to Wheel of Fortune would be very helpful. As it is, the comparison between Definition and Wheel of Fortune appears to originate from Wikipedians, and is therefore original research. That's why I removed that text.

The excellent brochure archive at http://www.thesamba.com/ includes several VW brochures from around 1968 onwards which use the name "Beetle" (and "Super Beetle"). A name used consistently to identify a model in a manufacturer's sales brochure seems pretty "official" to me. Regards, Letdorf (talk) 20:52, 1 June 2011 (UTC).

Little bit at the end of the section about early reconnaissance bit referes to bloody April (a good deal later) - not at all sure I see the connection, in context. Early casualies in 1914/15 were in fact much lighter, and mainly due to accidents rather than enemy action. By April 1917 the case was very different, accidents being a little less frequent due to more suitable aircraft and better training (albeit both were still very rudimentary) - while the air to air war had stepped up a good deal, and anti-aircraft fire was much more destructive. Hence comparison between 1915 and 1917 casualties is most unrealistic - they are really totally different things! I'd either move the remarks to the "Bloody April" section or cut it altogether. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 02:10, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
True - they are "diferent eras", and true, there are differences - but the essential thing was EXACTLY the same - the enemy was attacked from his blind spot under the tail, by guns firing upward at an angle. Incidentally, the Defiant night fighter also did exactly the same thing - although it could attack from in front or to the side as well as from behind, having a four-gun turret. Very sneaky - as the victim was typically shot down without knowing what was happening. The exact mounting used, and whether it was in the fuselage or the wings, fixed or flexible, seems to be rather less significance. Not sure if PIPE was drawing quite the right analogy - but one can certainly be made! --Soundofmusicals (talk) 03:37, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month – 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix; promoted to WP:GA quality
The 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix (formally the XXIV Grande Prêmio do Brasil) was a Formula One motor race held on March 26, 1995 at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, São Paulo, Brazil. It was the first round of the 1995 Formula One season. The race, contested over 71 laps, was won by Michael Schumacher for the Benetton team after starting from second position. David Coulthard finished second in a Williams, with Gerhard Berger third in a Ferrari. Damon Hill, who started the race from pole position, spun out while leading on lap 30 with an apparent gearbox problem, which was later found to be a suspension failure. Schumacher's win came despite Benetton encountering steering problems with his car during Friday practice, leading to him crashing heavily and necessitating steering component changes for the rest of the event. Despite Schumacher's victory, Hill proved to be faster during the race, and seemed to be on course for a comfortable victory before his sudden retirement. Other notable performances came from Berger, who took the final podium position despite being delayed during one of his routine pit stops due to a problem with a loose wheel nut; Mika Häkkinen, who finished fourth for the McLaren team despite its new car proving to be uncompetitive in pre-season testing; and Mika Salo, who drove strongly in the first half of the race to run third in his first Grand Prix for the Tyrrell team, only to suffer from cramp and drop back to seventh place at the finish. Behind Häkkinen, the other points-scoring finishers were Jean Alesi in the second Ferrari and Mark Blundell, who drove the second McLaren. Blundell was standing in for regular driver Nigel Mansell in the second McLaren until the team could produce a wider chassis in which to accommodate him, as the car's initial cockpit design had proved to be too narrow for him to drive comfortably. Several hours after the conclusion of the race, Schumacher and Coulthard were excluded from the race result as the chemical "fingerprint" of fuel samples from their cars taken after qualifying and the race did not match the specified sample lodged with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) prior to the event. Berger was thus declared the winner, but the race stewards' decision to exclude them was overturned at an appeal hearing on April 13. Schumacher and Coulthard were reinstated in first and second places respectively, but the two teams did not receive their respective constructors' points. The Ferrari team was unhappy with the decision made at the appeal hearing; Berger called the sport "a joke". The rule concerning the legality of fuels had been changed for the 1995 season, as had the new standardised equipment used for refuelling during the race, the drivers' weighing-in procedure and the conditions of the drivers' racing licences; all of these changes produced controversies which at times threatened to overshadow the race, as did the excessively bumpy condition of the track. The race also marked the first Brazilian Grand Prix to take place since the death of Brazilian triple World Champion Ayrton Senna the previous year; his passing was commemorated in various ways throughout the event.

I am reverting your recent edit to SBSP. It is well known and trivially citable that solar cells are less efficient in space. This is because typical solar cells are dominated by the red spectrum, and higher frequencies of light are captured with less efficiency. On the ground, sunlight has been frequency shifted downward through scattering, so the resulting spectrum is better suited to solar collection. You'll find lots on this if you look up AM1.0 and AM1.5 references.
Your comment on the checkin seems to suggest two problems. For one, there's a difference between efficiency and capacity. But more important, you state something about "14 times", which is far from the truth. There are 8760 hours in a year, solar panels on a fixed mounting will generate about 2300 kWh/kWp or about 3.7 times less power. Do you have a source for the 14 times? Maury Markowitz (talk) 16:40, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
The atmosphere is clear. Look up! Attenuation is on the order of a few percent (scattering is around 10 to 15%). Maury Markowitz (talk) 18:53, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
Sorry, I misread your post. The comparison is between space and earth. In space you have no night time, no weather, and no pointing issues (assuming your sat always faces the sun). Thus if you use the same calculation, there are no adjustments and the kWh/kWp/year is 8760, or in US measurements, you get 24 hours of peak sun a day. On earth if you account for night time, real weather and use a fixed array, you get around 6.5 hours of peak sun a day. That's 3.7 times better in space. Not 14 times better, not 144% better.

Hi. I'm thinking now that Category:Art_media is actually the best for articles like Hot road and Custom car; they all are physical things relating to art. Just so you know, there are very few articles in the top level of Category:Visual_arts, those (should) apply to just about every sub-genre of the visual arts. Just because something is artistic, doesn't necessarily may it the stereotypical example of a art. Sound OK? Clubmarx (talk) 20:08, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
Just to let you know that recent discussion on Ophiuchus, in which you participated, has been taken to DR: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#Ophiuchus.2C_Ophiuchus_.28astrology.29
There was a similar silly ongoing argument with the same editor on Algol, and it's not usefull to waste further time on it.
This editor has an agenda of bringing more astrology in a lot of astronomy pages, something he was discussing here: and and

Hey Trek,
The American Icon tv series about the origins of hotrodding finally made it onto IMDb.com, . This means that the individual episodes can now be added and then the famous people who were featured in each episode like Art Crisman and Roy Brizio! Plus we can directly reference the info as well, whoo hoo! --Scalhotrod (talk) 17:17, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2011 British Grand Prix
The 2011 British Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race, held on 10 July 2011, at the Silverstone Circuit in Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire, England, and won by Fernando Alonso. Changes to the circuit mean that the race was previously classified as being in Northamptonshire, but the movement of the start-finish line means that the race is now officially classed as being in Buckinghamshire. It was the ninth race of the 2011 season, and saw the introduction of a ban on off-throttle blown diffusers, the practice of forcing the engine to continue to produce exhaust gasses to generate downforce when drivers are not using the throttle.

"I can't remember it, Miss Ilsa. I'm a little rusty on it." Also, two sentences starting with "When" is clunky, and Bogart's quote has an extra word in it. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:57, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
Trekphiler, with all due respect (and I see that you've made valuable contributions to Wikipedia and that you're not even remotely a vandal), you really don't see any connection between Roger Moore having earlier played Garner's character in recycled Maverick scripts on The Alaskans and the series Maverick? The information is on The Alaskans page in depth but only a scant few readers of the Maverick page will ever see the page devoted to The Alaskans, truly one of the most obscure series around. It's rather eerie that Roger Moore continuously mouthed James Garner's dialogue with recycled James Garner scripts on a different series then replaced James Garner on Maverick, and interesting and rather important that Warner Bros. recycled the same scripts through every one of their series, a fact not mentioned elsewhere in the article (the same script routinely appeared, as close to word for word as possible, in all the Warner Bros. series, including all the westerns and then updated for every detective show (77 Sunset Strip, Hawaiian Eye, Bourbon Street Beat, and Surfside Six). This recycling has been lost to the mists of time (Warner Bros. certainly isn't going to publicize it even now) and most people today simply can't believe it but it's true (imagine if Deep Space Nine had used a recycled script from The Next Generation!). Unthinkable today but common practice in the early '60s. As a child, I used to watch these shows with my father and wonder how he could almost always predict exactly what was going to happen next, thinking he must be a lot smarter than I ever gave him credit for. It took decades but now I know. Hope you'll reconsider and change your mind about this, and thanks for taking the time to read my message. (Oh, and forgive my silly Wiki monicker, I was trying to cheer myself up the afternoon I came up with that one.) Upsmiler (talk) 14:19, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Thanks, Trekphiler, and I'm not peeved by the reuse of scripts, I'm sort of enthralled by it, it's so peculiar to realize that so very many episodes were "remakes" (to put it charitably) of earlier episodes in other series. The writer credit often went to "W. Hermanos" in these and other instances, a Spanish variation of "Warner Brothers," of course. (In his Archive of American Television interview, James Garner laughingly notes that W. Hermanos was the most prolific writer on the lot.) In any case, thanks for being so gracious and I also hope that we find ourselves harmoniously collaborating on articles in the future; I have a feeling we will and I look forward to it. As for edit wars, I always try to avoid them like the plague but in this case I'm glad it led to our correspondence. And I got a kick out of the title "Branded Maverick."

Well, I went and did it today. I sat and watched all the episodes I had DVR'd, wrote down who was in each episode, and then submitted the updates to the IMDb admins. Not surprisingly Vic Edelbrock Jr., Dean Jeffries, and "TV Tommy" Ivo already had entries that I could cite. Interestingly, Alex Xydias, Pete Chapouris, Dick Messer (Petersen Museum), and Jimmy Shine (SoCal Speedshop) already had entries. Speaking of Chapouris, while I was checking out Jeffries IMDb profile I noticed his car building credits and then went searching for Pete's entry for the California Kid. It wasn't there! So I submitted that too.
OK, time to devote some effort to the Brizio bio.... --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 03:59, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
IMDB auto accepted about 70% of my updates.

This is probably a stupid question, but... are the unit names for military formations (i.e. 3rd Army) supposed to be written alphabetically as opposed to numerically (i.e. Third Army instead of 3rd Army)? I′ve seen them both ways, and I′m starting to wonder if I′ve been writing them wrong all this time... Magus732 (talk) 14:51, 2 September 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your suggestions, all were helpful, and most are addressed. 3rd New Hampshire Regiment and The Light Infantry Division at Yorktown (1781) are now respectable. I've shored up the citations in Scammell's 1781 Light Infantry Regiment as well. All of these feel ready for a more serious review; I'll look on the project page to figure that out.

Obviously it was accidentally deleted while I was cleaning up a poorly written and poorly sourced article. It was a redundant source used twice in the same paragraph, i was probably going to use a named source to avoid repetition and deleted the second one instead of the first.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 19:02, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi there. I was just recent changes patrolling and came across your apparent edit war with various users (including this guy) on Comic book collecting. For what it's worth I think you're right to pull that load of cruft out of the article, but do you think it might be useful to take this further? Start a discussion on the talk page, try to establish some consensus, and if the editor still proves uncooperative then perhaps to dispute resolution or ANI? Warn the IP first and then take it from there; it's going to be the best way to sort this and put it in the past. Let me know if I can help.

Trekphiler, great photo of Jack Kelly and Julie Adams you added yesterday! It's good to finally have a Wikipedia Commons photograph like this. I added it to Julie Adams' page a moment ago since it had no pictures and needs one badly. It's so damnably hard to illustrate Wikipedia with photographs even if the principals are long dead and the company itself behind the endeavor dissolved decades ago (not the case, of course, with Warner Bros., as far as the dissolution part). Thanks for finding that and enriching these pages with a picture that presumably won't be taken down, at least permanently (there's usually a feint from somebody at any photograph but if the picture is on Wikipedia Commons, it's always a quick restoration to put back in).

I don't care what opinions you have about anything. I gave you a standard warning template which is a requirement so that you can stop edit warring incase you were doing it in good faith.

Article of the month – 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
The 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (formally the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix) was the eighteenth and penultimate round of the 2011 Formula One season. It was held on 13 November 2011 at the Yas Marina Circuit on Yas Island, a man-made island on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. It was the third running of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. As is customary with the race, it was the only twilight Grand Prix of the 2011 Formula One season, with a start time of 17:00 local time. The race was won by McLaren's Lewis Hamilton. Second was Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, with Jenson Button coming third in the other McLaren. Sebastian Vettel, in a Red Bull-Renault, had been in pole position, but retired after a puncture in the first lap, near the second corner, which was his first retirement since the 2010 Korean Grand Prix, where he encountered a problem, with his engine. As a result, this prevented him from equalling Michael Schumacher's record of 13 wins in one season, but Vettel did equal Nigel Mansell's 1992 record of 14 pole positions in one season. This was also the first race of 2011 in which neither Red Bull finished on the podium, as Vettel's team-mate Mark Webber finished fourth.

I understand you were speaking in the abstract when you told FurrySings here that (s)he was right. I'd probably give the same advice, if the actions described by FurrySings actually took place. But it is my opinion that FurrySings is mistaken, as I've pointed out here. FurrySings' claims that all the edits were "to say something negative about Krugman or to take out something positive" is demonstrably false.
I fear that FurrySings is continuing to revert, and refusing to engage in consensus discussions at the talk page of the article in the mistaken belief that (s)he has been told it is OK to continue reverting.
If you have a moment, would you check the discussion, and see if you still think it is wise for FurrySings to continue reverting. Of course, I've been wrong before, so if you think my proposal to discuss each edit is flawed, please let me know.--SPhilbrick(Talk) 14:53, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Article of the month – Hispania F110, current Good Article nominee
The Hispania F110 is a Formula One motor racing car designed and built by Dallara for Hispania Racing, for the 2010 season. It was driven by Karun Chandhok, Bruno Senna, Christian Klien and Sakon Yamamoto and was unveiled in Murcia, Spain, on 4 March 2010. The car used a Cosworth engine throughout the course of the 2010 season, of which it competed in every race with two of the four drivers who raced it. The team scored no points with the car during the season, and gained a highest result of fourteenth place. This was scored by both Chandhok and Senna, and meant that the team were placed eleventh and second-last in the 2010 World Constructors' Championship standings. The car gained no title sponsor from the team, and the car was never developed. Hispania's successor for their 2011 season campaign, the F111, was largely based upon the F110.

The Golden Age of Comics page says "One event cited for the beginning of the Golden Age was the 1938 debut of Superman in Action Comics #1, published by a predecessor of modern-day DC Comics. Superman's creation made comic books into a major industry." So if it didn't kick off the Golden Age, then that article needs to be modified, too.
John Bell makes a big deal of the fact that American comics were in colour---it's their most distinguishing feature, which is where the term "Canadian Whites" comes from. That fact (?) that the American comics were on better paper doesn't seem to be the deciding factor (and, honestly, would it?). Do you have evidence otherwise?

Thanks for the feedback. I can’t really disagree with any of it, though I've put some comments here. Much appreciated! Xyl 54 (talk) 22:57, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
