Thank you for listing the "open points". I will see for car manufacturers, Leasing and related terms and some other suggestions like those below.

Welcome, Jost ammon! The English version of Pforzheim needs more attention, and you must be about the best person in the world to attend to it! :Robin Patterson 22:51, 28 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply on my talk page. Those other city pages you mentioned all have many paragraphs. I've added another paragraph to the Pforzheim stub; you could add one about the place you work in; then you could translate some of the city's homepage or the German Wikipedia page! http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pforzheim
Kind regards, anyway - :Robin Patterson 22:44, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Pat Metheny Group

Welcome to Wikipedia. I am afraid you must have felt less than welcome when an article that you had edited a lot was essentially wiped out with little explanation and no attempt to improve it. That is not the message that Wikipedia wants to convey to new users, and I would like to apologize on behalf of the community. (Not that I have any special authority, I am a sysop but that position carries only technical responsibilities). You have unknowingly stumbled into a rather special situation, and I would just like to say that this is not how WIkipedia normally works or should work. Your contributions in the spirit of NPOV are most welcome, and I hope you will stay with us. Kosebamse 05:58, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Thank you for your very kind and encouraging words. I have in fact been disturbed though I theoretically subscribe to the very idea of wikipedia, about which I wrote in my weblog Giosetti writes in an entry of 09 Apr 2004|11:38pm.

I have poked around in your talk sites and understand your above comment now. I admire you for dealing with the usual "net trolls" - I would certainly have neither the patience nor the time to do so.Jost ammon 08:28, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Renault

It seems that your message on the Renault talk page did not pass... David.Monniaux 08:40, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

How is that? I can read it on the Renault|Talk:

Doing a ranking here (France's number one or number two car manufacturer) is pointless because the ranking differs with the criteria of which are abundantly many: do you count passenger cars and light commercial vehicles (LCV) seperately or do you count them together? Do you count the brands (PSA includes the two brands Peugeot and Citroen) separately or added? What about European/worldwide numbers? Currently the situation including passenger cars and LCV in Western Europe counted in terms of brands (a lot of paradigms, right?) is per April 22nd according to Finacial Times Germany, printed edition, page 12:

Renault 10,0% VW 9,3% Ford 9,2% Opel 8,9%

And then are those numbers rapidly changing - so I propose to leave it at "traditional manufacturer". Jost ammon 08:42, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Please retry cheking the Renault Talk, David - the note must be there. Jost ammon 08:53, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Thanks! =) 203.109.144.38 01:02, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
