Talk:Chevrolet Beauville

message: I am the writer of the article, and I believe that it should not be deleted because it describes what a Beauville is. There are only facts on this page, no opinions, and all of the information is true to my knowledge. I have posted this page because of the interest in Beauvilles, especially in the Stevenson High School district. The security vans are Beauvilles, and they are very noticeable. I found the name "Beauville' to be rather interesting, so I did some research on it. The information that I found I posted on Wikipedia. This information will be useful to the many people that I talk to about Beauvilles, because now they will know what it is. I think that this article contains some interesting information, and I do not believe it should be deleted. The Beauville has become an inside joke to Stevenson students, and to some, it represents the High School itself (kind of like a mascot). Since there are more than 4000 students in this High School, many that have heard others say Beauville may not know what it means. This Beauville article would explain to them exactly what the Beauville is.
If I need to make any changes to keep this article online, please notify me, and I will make the necessary corrections. I do not understand why any admin would see this article as an advertisment. This car has not been in production for over 11 years, this article's sole purpose is to describe a car and give the reader a short background about it. These kinds of articles broaden the reach of Wikipedia, and that is what makes it diffrent from any other encyclopedia. Here you can find almost any kind of information, and it is becoming a reference point for thousands of people.
The majority of my research comes from automallusa.net, which is a very respectable website. http://www.automallusa.net/1995/chevrolet/g20/reviews.html
:In conclusion, if you are in the market for a dependable and reasonably priced hauler/workhorse, the Beauville delivers on all counts. But remember, production of the G series, and unfortunately the Beauville, stopped in 1995. The replacement van for the Beauville is the Chevrolet Express Van. If you see a 1996 Chevrolet Beauville, do not be fooled. If you see a 1995 Chevrolet Beauville, look for power windows.

: It has too many options and too few facts. Examples:
* "This article will focus mainly on the 1995 Beauville, the last production year." Why?
* "Chevrolet made a superior product with bullet proof reliability." Says who?
* "Because the vehicle changed so little and yet was reliable" Source?
* "very popular in the high demand workplace" Source?
* "The Beauville is their security vehicle of choice due to its reliable powertrain and size." Source?
* "The engines were the selling points of the Beauvilles when they rolled off the line." Source?
* "The most respected" Why was it respected and who respected it? Source?
And so on. The entire article reads in the same way with things like "This engine is recommended for those that require extreme towing" and such argumentative writing. // Liftarn 13:13, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleanup 

message: I finally added the information about the 1950s station wagon Chevrolet Beauville.  While I hope I cited enough, I sourced where it seemed neccessary and provided links for words some may not understand.  I included the sites used to help in the process of acquiring the information for the Beauville before the G Series Beauville.  If you see something that needs to be cited better can you please tell me what it is, why it should be cited, and just real quick an idea of how, instead of just deleting.  
With regard to the school, if I were to figure out a way to cite this example and provide evidence of how durable the vehicle must be to work there could it be entered into the article?  Is photographic evidence enough?  Would I have to quote a security guard?  Can I quote a Security guard who drives one for a living?  
I do not feel the article should be merged to the Chevrolet Van article because it has more to do with the actual Beauville than with the 210, Bel Air, or Chevrolet G.  It is about the option, not the vehicle it is an option of.76.16.78.28 01:59, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as the school goes, no, I can't think of any way to "cite" this. A security guard who drives the van is not a notable or reliable secondary source. And anything you do yourself to create sources would constitute original research. --DeLarge 09:32, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  I added information about the original Beauville 

message: The list is important.  It is what the Beauville was.  That was what you got when you purchased a 1995 Chevrolet Beauville and if someone was unsure of the year of their Beauville they could check the list and say "Oh, 1995, I have power windows."  And what happened to the Picture of the picture of the 1956 Bel Air Beauville? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.15.72.77 (talk) 16:18, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sprawling list 

message: THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT THE BEAUVILLE NOT THE VANDURA.  IF THIS IS NOT FIXED OR IS RETURNED AFTER IT IS FIXED I WILL PUT A BEAUVILLE PICTURE ON THE VANDURA PAGE(if there is one because it quite frankly is not as awesome of a vehicle).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.156.248.13 (talk) 22:46, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: WHO PUT IN A VANDURA PICTURE!?!

message: Shouldn't the picture be of the Beauville rather than the Vandura?  I have a picture that shows the entire front of the vehicle and the entire side as well.  I believe that meets wikipedia's criteria. 131.156.248.76 (talk) 08:18, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
