Talk:Honda ST series

message: Propose merging Honda ST1300, Honda ST1100, Honda Pan European and any other strays that might be out there to this page, Honda ST series.  Most of the above pages are padded with stats which should be moved into the infobox, or contain material that should be deleted, such as original research.  When you cut out all the fat, there's about enough meat on these three pages for one article. --Dbratland (talk) 20:52, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd suggest Holden VE Commodore as a good example (Featured quality) of an article that is a result of a few merges. See Wikipedia:Featured_articles#Transport and Wikipedia:Good_articles#Road transportation and policy for what we need to be working towards. -- Quiddity (talk) 01:42, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I would suggest considering how Honda CB900F turned out after merging the orginal CB900F with the later Hornet 900. These are two utterly distinct bikes, with almost two decades separating them.  But they are connected by both the model code name and the role the play in Honda's lineup; they fill the same niche.<P>From the point of view of the general reader, the article Honda CB900F tells a coherent story about Honda, motorcycles, and the CB900 series.  If the purpose of Wikipedia were only to help mechanics distinguish models apart and see which parts belong to which, then you'd separate the pages, but that is not what WP is for.  Without a doubt, the ST1100 and ST1300 are much closer to one another than the older and newer CB900Fs.  --Dbratland (talk) 01:42, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger proposal 

message: Although the merger proposal was first made some 8 years ago, I would be happy to see such a clean-up. Arrivisto (talk) 18:45, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree, and s earlier rationale for doing this is still sound. If we could get the bike with my tent on the pillion back in the article, that would be great too :) [just half kidding] ☆ Bri (talk) 19:01, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Given that there are three existing ST pages, perhaps the way forward might be to create a new fourth page, say, "Honda 'Pan European'", made up from the other three. Then once it's all tickety-boo, reduce those three into redirects to the new page? Arrivisto (talk) 11:54, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I've now done it.  it still needs a bit of work, especially the image positioning and the inbox duplications. Help gratefully received! Arrivisto (talk) 18:48, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Made some initial cleanup of the section levels. I think each model needs a brief introduction at least telling its production history, and in the case of the 1300 that it was a successor model! Maybe somewhere the re-use of the engine in the CTX series, which isn't really a successor AFAIK, being sold as a full-on touring machine.  ☆ Bri (talk) 20:03, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger proposal (2018) 

message: I corrected this in the Infobox for the ST1300, but this was reverted. I’m curious as to why? Rjbarbour (talk) 00:41, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Self reverted, sorry. I've been watching this article for a long time but missed when it was erroneously changed to transverse. I thought your edit was in the opposite direction. ☆ Bri (talk) 14:59, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
