Rolls-Royce Phantom generations[edit]

You recently moved the page for the ""Rolls-Royce Phantom (2003)," renaming it "Rolls-Royce Phantom VII." You really should have discussed this on the talk page first, because there has been discussion of that topic previously. More to the point, it's not correct. BMW & Rolls-Royce do not call the current car the "Phantom VII," or the last-generation model the "Phantom VII," any more than Toyota calls the current Corolla "the Corolla XII." If you don't believe, take a look on Rolls-Royce's website for yourself. It is true that previous generations were called "Phantom VI," "Phantom V," etc., but that convention is used because Rolls-Royce used it in their literature and promotional materials to identify the car. They called it the "Phantom VI," and so Wikipedia should, too. But if BMW chooses not to do that with the current Rolls-Royce models, then we should follow that, too.

Your justification was that you "Remove[d] unnecessary parentheses/disambiguator: consistent naming with related articles." This is thus a false consistency, because it implies a naming convention that no longer is operative. As for related articles, take a look at the Honda Accord page as one example. There, the generations are labelled and given their own pages as Honda Accord (ninth generation) and so forth. We don't call it the Accord IX.

Bottom line, I'm not trying to start an edit war, but I think you erred and should considering undoing the change. Sacxpert (talk) 09:05, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You OK...?[edit]

Dear Regushee/Regashee. Are you OK? You appear to have fallen off a cliff after November 25th. Everything alright outside Wikipedia? Afterall, that's where real life is.  ;) 2601:196:180:DC0:18FC:7D07:313D:591A (talk) 17:58, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

References, facts, etc[edit]

Hi Regushee. While I admire your energy levels, you are adding errors. For instance, you incorrectly removed the X60 model code from the Toyota Cresta (see here) and you added some entirely incorrect information regarding the transmissions in the Toyota Chaser. Are these edits just based off hunches of yours? Please take care to only add verified information and include references; adding edit descriptions would also be nice. It takes a lot of time to wade through hundreds and hundreds of your edits to determine what is real and what is just assumptions and guesswork. Pinging @Stepho-wrs: for good measure. Thanks,  Mr.choppers | ✎  18:54, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I found the model code from the Toyota website. I have translated the information from Toyota Japanese language brochures that Toyota scanned. Regushee (talk) 19:25, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But that was just one model code; it used both X50 and X60. If you find something which seems incorrect, verify it before changing. The 75 years is just a snapshot, the linked catalog is merely from a single year.
As for the transmission changes, there is no support for the diesels being fitted with the 4MT and 3AT; quite the opposite. I am merely asking you not to add things unless you know them to be true. Try looking in more than one place, too.  Mr.choppers | ✎  21:05, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting. I saw Regushee's removal of X60 and did a quick fact check against my own data at https://web.archive.org/web/20230530112012/http://members.iinet.net.au/~stepho/cressprd.htm and saw I had no listing for any X6# Cresta. But I did a more thorough check just now and found more entries at https://www.megazip.net/search?q=cresta
Toyota has an infuriating lack of total lists. They produce partial lists (eg vehicles sold at Vista dealerships, vehicles sold to N.America, vehicles sold to non-N.America/non-Japan) but no complete lists. Even worse, some special models only appear in special brochures and not in the general brochures. So its really, really hard to say that Toyota never made a particular model unless you know you have every single brochure, microfiche, manual, etc. My collection is good but definitely not complete, so I get fooled occasionally too.
As an example, https://www.toyota-global.com/company/history_of_toyota/75years/vehicle_lineage/car/id60013153A/index.html lists models as "MX63(2800), GX61(2000), GX60(2000), RX63(2000), RX60(2000), TX60(1800), LX60(2200)" but do not mention the MX62 wagon sold outside of Japan (MX62 is same as MX63 but even numbers have solid rear axle).
Also beware that Wikipedia Japan has a woeful lack of references and that I do not trust it very much. Great for inspiration but I always do fact checking of anything I read on it. Naturally, it is focused on models sold in Japan.  Stepho  talk  23:38, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
