Talk:BMW

message: Current text:
The 1962 introduction of the BMW New Class compact sedans was the beginning of BMW's reputation as a leading manufacturer of sport-oriented cars. Throughout the 1960s, BMW expanded its range by adding coupe and luxury sedan models
Update to:
In 1961 the BMW 1500 was unveiled at a car show as a family car and went to the market a year later. It was an amazing car, and by 1963 the sales of BMW 1500 had completely turned BMW’s cash flow around.[1] BMW New Class compact sedans was the beginning of BMW's reputation as a leading manufacturer of sport-oriented cars. In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US. Sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars. Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following yearThroughout the 1960s, BMW expanded its range by adding coupe and luxury sedan models. Then BMW stuffed their largest m10 engine in their smallest body and created the 2002. That opened the floodgates, and established BMW as the premier performance automobile line in the US.[2] Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, BMW expanded its range by adding coupes and luxury sedan models [3]

message: A recent editor, offended the the Holy Fathers' family names were mentioned, suppressed them. I have returned them. In the areas of artistic patronage and of Renaissance and Baroque princely politics, the family alliance of a pope is very often relevant. If Lorenzo II de' Medici was made Duke of Urbino, it is useful to know that the Medici Pope Leo X made the gift; Bernini's Barberini patron is a Barberini pope. This is common practice in the literature, and it aids the reader. With modern popes, of course, all this would be irrelevant. Wetman 20:54, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)

thread_title:  Riesling Connection? 

message: quote from the wiki:
In German, Katzenelnbogen means "cat's elbow". The "cat's elbow" in German is analogous to "the cat's meow" in English, as in the expression, "Isn't she the cat's meow?" meaning, "Doesn't she have everything going for her?" In German, "Sie ist die Katzenelnbogen!" means, "Isn't she wonderful? Isn't she the cat's meow?" Naming a town "the cat's meow", then, implied that the town had everything going for it--proximity to other, larger towns, beautiful scenery, access to fresh water and air, abundant food and transportation resources, etc.
As a german native speaker who ended up by coincidence on this page, I would like to state that I have never heard of and that there is not a single reference anywhere that in german language the term Katzenelnbogen (or Katzenellenbogen, which is at least orthographically correct) means anything else than a cat's elbow. 
The whole section is completely made up, as the community's german wiki proves.
I strongly suggest erasing that part !  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.167.202.38 (talk) 11:06, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Highly suspect.  Syntax irregularities suggest that it might have been written by a native speaker of a language other than English; could it be someone affiliated with the magazine?  This article could use more of an "independent standpoint" and less "exclusive coverage" to be more effective in its main goal, which should be educating wikipedia users about Caijing.  Any readers of the magazine out there who know anything about it?

message: Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of Esperanza's proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors.
