Hi Hugh, Many thanks for using the image I have posted on Commons! There are actually two different DeSoto Firedomes that I have photographed. Both are 1956 models: a two-door hardtop (no "B" pillar) and a four-door sedan. I trust that you will have susses with your book! CZmarlin (talk) 23:35, 16 November 2019 (UTC)

Personal Luxury Car - Mass Market

First, thanks for your recent edit on PLC, CZ - you seem focused on maintaining the "mass market" element in the article. I have a question - as I understand it from reading non-wiki source material, PLC is a term invented by Ford to market the 1958 Thunderbird. PLC became a distinct market segment after the success of the 1958 Thunderbird. The article seems to have veered off into describing a random group of low volume two door luxury cars as PLC. If any low volume two-door luxury car with a whiff of sporting pretension is PLC, then why not the 1952 Bentley R Type Continental? Seems like a rabbit hole, one you strip mass market away. In your opinion, why is the rather unremarkable 1953 Cadillac Eldorado the first PLC (dubious ref aside)? PLawrence99cx (talk) 01:32, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Hello PLawrence99cx, I agree that there is too much emphasis on a variety of early models in this article. In particular, expensive and limited run versions marketed before the concept of "personal luxury" even became known. Following this logic, it could even be possible to categorize many sporty low production models as "personal luxury" all the way back to the earliest days of automobiles. Nevertheless, there need to be some authoritative references that will help focus the coverage in this article to what are generally categorized in the "personal luxury" market segment. Once I have a bit more "free" time, I will try to cull this article! CZmarlin (talk) 23:35, 16 November 2019 (UTC)

Dodge Omni

Just a thought, this car was definitely a metric design - perhaps the IP was correct. As long as the output is the same. Mr.choppers | ✎ 14:52, 16 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for following up on this change in the built-in dimension formulas. You are correct that these cars were originally built with metric, but most common at the time was using the US measurements. I have corrected the US measurements in the formulas to those provided in the Dodge Omni brochure. I think the biggest problem that the contributor seemed to be making only random "drive-by" changes to the long established dimension formulas in several automobile articles. In my opinion, their edit was not a change to make the Dodge Omni article better. Thanks! CZmarlin (talk) 23:35, 16 November 2019 (UTC)

AMC Pacer photos

Hi there,

I just wanted to say thank you for your AMC pacer photos. I used them in my blog, with credit, here https://automotivehistory.org/this-day-in-automotive-history/december-3-1979-the-last-amc-pacer-2/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:9E20:B750:0:0:0:47 (talk) 20:06, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Auto detailing

How can I qualify my source reference for this article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto_detailing — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aslibradilla (talk • contribs) 06:41, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello Aslibradilla, All additions and corrections should be based on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. The problem with the auto detailing statements from that particular business is that the claims cannot be verified. In short, that spam site is not a reliable source. Appropriate sources can be things like books, magazine articles, web sites from reputable companies or organizations (not forums, promotional pages, or self-published personal sites). Cheers!
