Talk:General Motors Diesel Division

message: I'm not sure if a complete listing of the locomotives belongs here (I know, I am one of the guilty parties if it doesn't).
Would we be better off setting the loco list up as a separate article, such as List of GMD Locomotives? Wuhwuzdat (talk) 00:38, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. That way it can be linked to from General Motors Diesel which has a better narrative that this article. Iain Bell (talk) 12:13, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Should the loco list be  a seperate article? 

message: Dates contradict between the two articles General Motors Diesel and General Motors Diesel Division, as do facts. GMD doesn't mention anything but locomotives and doesn't mention GMDD except GMDD of Canada.

thread_title: Contradictions

message: London is real, but it's there for paper, building GM products on the other side of a line. This has been covered in other GM articles. The article references are weak, too. Is this article necessary? The bus table would really punch up GMC and List of GMD Locomotives would fit into List of GM-EMD locomotives.
On both of these tables/lists you could list the models together, with a column for where they were built. You could also split one model, such as "Model=GP-9" "Built=3436 McCook 646 London".

replies: text: Yes!!!  GMDD produced no vehicles of any kind and listing vehicles built by GMC, EMD, and GMD as produced by GMDD is highly misleading.  The first statement of the article is true.  The rest is false by its association with GMDD, which was essentially a marketing and customer service structure for the Cleveland and Detroit Diesel Engine divisions from 1938 to 1965.  Take away the false statements and there is no article left.  The useful information can be put in articles on GMC, GMD, Detroit Diesel, and Cleveland Diesel.  GMDD is significant only as a minor detail in the history of GM's production of Diesel engines.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.208.11.42 (talk) 18:11, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

text: Well, the article is short and sweet now, without the glaring GMD/GMDD error and mis-attribution of vehicle production to GMDD.  The GMD locomotive list is safely accessible through the GMD page and some of the bus info will be added to GMC (automobile).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.208.11.42 (talk) 03:09, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
