Talk:International Harvester

message: Case New Holland owns the International Harvester brand and the logo on this home page.  Navistar is the newer name for International Truck & Engine Corporation and the logo is different.  
The rest of the stuff on this page may be a decent history of IH but it ends with Case New Holland acquiring IH, not Navistar.  
Now Case is known as Case IH.

thread_title:  The name 

message: Can someone include the history of IH's ownership of Solar Turbines, which is based in San Diego? When IH sold Solar to Caterpillar for $505 million in cash, it was the largest cash transaction ever recorded. I think it was in 1981 or 1982. Also, there should be some mention of IH being a component of the DJIA for many years.  76.197.3.233 (talk) 06:53, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: Major changes needed

message: The section about the strike needs to be changed. My father worked for IH & went through this. The strike happened because Archie wanted to remodel ALL of the aging plants, but didn't want to pay unemployment. So, when contract negotiations started, management STOOD on the fact of mandatory overtime. The workers could be called in at anytime - something the Union had fought in the past but IH never pursued.
The strike ended the day contraction was finished & they took mandatory OT off the table. When everyone got back to work, most of their tools & belonging had been stolen or were damaged by the crews working on the plant. IH had to pay to fix all of this.
Someone has written about this, I think we need to use it & amend this part of the article. Thanks! Kmac1036 (talk) 02:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  History of the strike 

message: The Construction machinery (plant) get little mention yet at one stage IH were a major player in this sector taking over various firms and building some of the largest machines available in the 40 & 50s.
Building crawler tractors and bulldozers from the 1920s. 
Taking over Hough Loaders Line. Moving on to build motor scrapers and large loader under the Payline brand. The Industrial products division range of Engineering machinery was part of IH before being sold off to Dresser during the 80s recession.
Dresser gets a brief mention above but not in main article. Dresser then merged with Komatsu of Japan.
UK arm of IH appears to be absent, but was a large operation with tractors and other products sold world wide.
UK factory was merged with  David Brown (Case) as part of Case - IH merger. with Case uk production moving there. Factory has now been Streamline and may have finished completely.
Article requires some filling out to give a balanced history of the company.

message: Clearly this section is too large in an already huge article. It should be either spun off into another article or just deleted, all the minor articles are intact. It’s just a thought.
All these series have their own articles, none are very strong, or get much editing. Simple rationalizing. Individual articles have room for good pictures, but little content. And much of that, especially engines, is common to all of them. One common table could get large in both directions, as people added details. One info box describing an entire series is pretty general.
This stuff is just a simple cut and paste, with little editing. Arranged new to old from intro year. If it does become an article, it will need a lot of work
When I posted this I got the warning:"Your edit includes new external links. These may be much welcomed links to references. Please note that the nofollow HTML attribute is applied to external links in Wikipedia, instructing search engines to ignore these links when computing page ranks. For information on our standards for adding links, please see our External links Guideline." and I had to enter the fuzzy letters in the box. This is wrong, no new links were added, this was only cut and paste from other articles. REPEAT-NO NEW LINKS.ReTeam (talk) 14:24, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
