File:Honda 006.jpg
Hi Zwerg Nase. Thanks for adding all those photos to Formula One car articles. I have a question though: Is File:Honda 006.jpg a BAR 005 (from 2003) or a BAR 006 (from 2004)? The number '9' would suggest that it's a 006 from 2004 (when BAR carried numbers 9 and 10), although the coloured stripes near the front wheel look more like the 2003 livery than the 2004 livery. If it's a 006, then the image should be removed from the BAR 005 article. On the other hand, if it is a 005, then the filename should probably be changed, to avoid possible confusion. Regards. DH85868993 (talk) 12:11, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
- Hey! Thanks for your comment. There are more great photos to come! You are absolutely right, it's confusing. When I found the pictures of the July 2004 presentation I figured they would be the 2004 cars. So I named the files here accordingly. But when I put them into the articles I found that some teams had run their 2003 cars, such as Honda. So I changed the description and put the photo into the right article. You are right, the filename should be changed, but I don't know how to do that. Do you? Zwerg Nase (talk) 21:10, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
- Yes. I'll take care of it. Thanks for the reply. DH85868993 (talk) 21:30, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks!! Zwerg Nase (talk) 21:57, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 27
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lotus 49, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Shell, Dunlop and Firestone (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:01, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi
Hello Zwerg Nase, thanks for your message. We do seem to have some overlapping interests & it would be a good thing if there was a bit more friendly interaction to help improve Wiki pages. I feel this would be more productive. I've worked up some obscure drivers' pages as well as some more well known ones. Some people have been complimentary!!:P.
BTW I noted an entry on the BT7 page (Repco) by another editor, which I am not certain is correct so have brought it up on his page for clarification. Regards, Eagleash (talk) 16:58, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- I also read nowhere about the Repco naming. Let's see what he says.
I will be working on improving all the Lotus and Brabham car articles over the next few days, trying to add photos where they are missing (found some great ones for the Lotus 43 and got permission to use them, I will add them later tonight. Also I want to bring the 2012 Brazilian Grand Prix article up to Good Article standards. Maybe you could help me with that by copyreading it? Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:45, 27 January 2015 (UTC) - Oh and I also found pictures for the 2012 Brazil race and got permission to use them. The author still needs to update the licences on Flickr though... Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:48, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- OK good stuff!! Good photos really help an article along I think. I might have to trawl through my photos to see if any are any use (after scanning!). I would be honoured to look at anything you'd like me to. So drop me a message if/when you need anything. Regards, Eagleash (talk) 18:41, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- PS, I've taken the liberty of tweaking up the bibliography on the Lotus 49 page and also added one item which I knew existed as I saw it in a bookshop towards the end of last year... Best Eagleash (talk) 23:29, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- Perfect! Zwerg Nase (talk) 23:30, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- There you are you see. People make edits & chat about it & (I believe) the end product is improved. Whereas →→ the editor re BT7 has responded on my talk page... Eagleash (talk) 01:34, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
Agreed, I think it was worth querying though, just to make sure...
All the time though I had in the back of my mind these pictures I took at Crystal Palace circuit in 2010. (Bit disingenuous of me really :P) I can't identify the model...
I'll have a look at Brazilian GP 2012 article later today hopefully. Best, Eagleash (talk) 13:18, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Tricky one.. maybe it's a F2 or F3 car? I'll try to put in the Brazilian GP pics asap! Zwerg Nase (talk) 13:27, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Almost certainly F3. Eagleash (talk) 13:31, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi again,
I've had a go at the Brazil '12 GP page. Please take a look and see if you agree (or not!). Cheers, Eagleash (talk) 14:20, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Good stuff! Also added the photos now. Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:20, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Good work, I'm afraid I've tweaked one of the captions.....please say if you disagree. Best Eagleash (talk) 17:43, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, I've been tweaking again I'm afraid...one thing missing is the lap di Resta crashed out on. He completed 68 according to the results table, but did he actually crash on lap 68 or 69? It's these little things.... :P Eagleash (talk) 22:00, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- I just watched that part of the race again and I believe lap 68 is correct. Button was about to enter the final lap (71) when Di Resta, about 1 minute behind him crashed before the start/finish-straight. So Button had completed 69 laps and Di Resta behind him 68. Do I make sense? Good thing you double-checked though! Zwerg Nase (talk) 22:20, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Um not quite; Button entering 71 but completed 69? And if I read you correctly di Resta had completed 68 & was on his 69th but did not quite complete it? So he binned it on his 69th lap. If you agree I'll put it in [or you can :)]. Eagleash (talk) 22:31, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Button had not yet entered lap 71, so he was ON lap 70, having completed 69. Di Resta, almost one lap down, had completed 68. Zwerg Nase (talk) 22:35, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- OK with you now.... :P
- Update I've gone with "after 68 laps" and have added it. Hope OK with you... Eagleash (talk) 22:39, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- OK! Zwerg Nase (talk) 22:48, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- I thought about this again and figured that the wording now might be confusing as well. The race itself was not on lap 68 at the time of the crash. Maybe we can change it to "little over one lap to go". It should be clear that that means one lap for the race leader. What do you think? Zwerg Nase (talk) 10:33, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
- OK! Zwerg Nase (talk) 22:48, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Well my feeling is that di Resta, is classified at 68 laps, so it may also confuse the issue if the sentence deviates very far from that. How it reads now would be my preferred wording if I were to be editing a page in similar circumstances. But it's just a personal opinion, others may differ! I'll leave it up to you as you are doing the most work on this page. Regards, Eagleash (talk) 12:52, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
- I'll think it over and try to find a wording that makes both things clear. Zwerg Nase (talk) 12:57, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
- What about "on his 69th lap"...? Or.."towards/at the end of his 69th lap" leaving in "out of 71" or not according to how you feel. Think that would cover all. Eagleash (talk) 13:38, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
