Talk:Ford LTD Crown Victoria

message: Should this page be merged with the Ford LTD page? This article is kind of sparse, and the LTD article already refers to this car. This model is still technically an LTD, although the base and Brougham were no longer fullsize. --Sable232 03:19, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merging Page? 

message: Is it just me, or does it seem like the two should be combined under one heading? I mean, why would you have two separate sections covering basically the same information? Raan0001 17:26, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Popular culture and in fiction?

message: What is this article supposed to cover? The info box and parts of the lead imply it's covering all of 1979-1991, other parts reflect the "LTD Crown Victoria" as so named not being produced until 1980.
Yet Ford LTD (Americas) would seem to cover all of the 1979-82 models already.
What's the least confusing way to resolve this? Restrict this article to 1983-91 only? Have it cover the entire generation regardless of naming? Or, as suggested above, merge it with the Ford LTD article since it is, effectively, the same car?
-Olds 403 (talk) 03:51, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: That's part of the problem - this is split, but not by a generational break. Part of the generation is in the LTD article, the other part is here. Given the fact that it was a very mild refresh and the addition of fuel injection that distinguishes the '83, I don't see a case for keeping a split along that line. - Olds 403 (talk) 23:06, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Scope of article 

message: I placed a merge tag on the article. My reasoning for merging it into the Ford LTD article is this: from the standpoint of the LTD itself, it retains an unbroken lineage through 1991. The same car, same brand, same body, same name. It's still an LTD; the only difference is that the LTD Crown Victoria was the only model available from 1983 on. This is partly why I wouldn't support merging it into Ford Crown Victoria. Further, since the 1979-82 information needs to stay where it is in order to be accurate, it makes far more sense to continue to separate the pages where there was a complete redesign. -Olds 403 (talk) 02:21, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Lance Cairns

message: This article is aweful. There is far too much gushy adulation. The tone is not appropriate for an encyclopaedia. Among many examples, consider:
"...they had witnessed something special, the likes of which would probably not be seen again."
Is it an encyclopaedia's job to make statements like this? Especially given that the likes of such innings HAVE been seen since (think of the record innings of other big hitters like Afridi, Richards, Botham...).  Whoever put that in should think carefully about whether he/she possesses enough common sense to be writing for Wikipedia. Sorry, but this has to be said. This sort of thing gives Wikipedia a bad name.
There is also much irrelevance, e.g.
"The infamous 'underarm' delivery, which ensured an Australian victory in the 'deciding' Third Final of the 1980/81 WSC competition, added to the Kiwis motivation to beat the Australians in their rematch: the 1982/83 WSC. However, it was not to be."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.125.60.123 (talk) 12:22, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Irony 

message: While the accident that killed the young man is a tragedy, lets keep things NPOV. We do NOT know if he was drunk or sober or what his level of fault is. Based on current information he may be a drunk driver guilty of manslaughter or he may be another innocent victim of an accident. He may yet face charges and will likely face a civil suit, but those are things outside our control or influence. The facts will play out in time and we should let those facts come out before we POST to Wikipedia. There are people more famous then Garrison who have killed people in auto accidents (like Laura Bush) but they were never charged. Remember, you have every right to make your own conclusions, but if you post here, make sure you are posting FACT and not opinion. Michaelh2001 08:34, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

message: He has pleaded guilty to drunk driving and vehicular manslaughter, so the above comment is outdated. I think it unfair criticism of Rev.

I'll wait several days for a response here.  If none, then I'll add a short passage to the article. Chad Einbinder doesn't have his own article.  If he did, then I would put the passage there.  He's the Philadelphia native.  Laraine grew up in L.A. Earththings (talk) 23:07, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Virginity 

message: One way that all articles about actors can be improved is to erase the phrase "... in movies like ..." (or anything similar) from every actor biography on Wikipedia.
It doesn't take a brilliant mind to realize that such phrases really mean "Some of the movies were lower quality, or a flop, or both, so those have been left off the list; only the better and more successful ones are named here."
In other words, "... in movies like ..." is almost always a lie, because the important thing about a worse movie is that it is NOT like the better ones, and similarly a flop is exactly unlike a success.
It is usually fine to say "... was in this movie and that one and this other one" while not mentioning the less-good movies. (One time to not do it that way is if someone literally became famous for being in a lot of bad movies.) But it's not fine to try to inflate anyone's reputation by pretending they were in more good movies than they really were. TooManyFingers (talk) 06:20, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
