Ack! Another article in which the word 'automobile' is misused.
- Firstly, NOBODY calles them 'Concept Automobiles' - they are always called 'Concept Cars' even when they are trucks.
- Secondly, there are a bunch of things in this list that are not, strictly, automobiles (eg: Ford F-250 Super Chief). The word 'automobile' means 'car' and excludes vehicles that were not designed primarily for the carrying of people.
- Thirdly, the word 'automobile' is not much used in non-US-English countries - and we should try to pick words like 'Car' that are dialect-neutral.
manufacturer subcategories
editI have started an ad-hoc update of the major companies concept cars to move into subcategories.
So far Holden and Toyota I've worked on, though not nescessarily to completeness. I'm using a category name of "(manufacturer) Concept vehicle", and for the cars in question, MOVING them from the Concept automobiles category, into the subcategory.
This has alot of work ahead of it though and I am only doing this ad-hoc as I get time and motivation. More work (or even discussion?) on this would be good. :) --.../Nemo (talk) 06:00, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
- Seems like the subcategories are not automatically updating. All the subcat counts are zero, and it is not adding new subcats automatically like Volkswagen Concept Vehicles - any ideas? Purge cache doesn't fix the problem. 7 talk | Δ | 01:47, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
