Douglas (motorcycle) already exists. ww2censor 22:39, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you look at start dates you will see that Douglas (motorcycle) did not already exist. Feel free to merge it or whatever is appropriate. Seasalt 01:59, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I decided to merge to here but you need more history sources. ww2censor 05:02, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
As of the date of the statement, 9 October 2006, Douglas (motorcycle) did exist, but actually Seasalt you had a few hours start on me with your article that I merged into. Hardly worth mentioning now but it does show you that the records kept by Wikipedia mean one cannot get away with any inaccurate statements. Cheers ww2censor 03:57, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It was a remarkable co-incidence. No bad. Laughing you spotted it...cant beat the watchlist..Seasalt 04:36, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

List of Douglas Motorcycles?

[edit]

As part of the British motorcycles development it would be useful to have an article List of Douglas Motorcycles that we could easily refer back to on the Category:British motorcycles - I was thinking about moving and linking the list of models here but after seeing the discussion would appreciate views before I do anything? Thanks Tony (talk) 20:17, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

 Done I waited 6 months and no comments so I've actioned this as List of Douglas motorcycles - please see if you can add some notes to the different models and fill the gaps? Thruxton (talk) 13:42, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure the link to this list is very satisfactory. I'd expect/prefer a "MAIN ARTICLE" type link at the beginning of "HISTORY". Obviously, {{main}} is not the right thing to use - do we know of anything else? MalcolmMcDonald (talk) 07:13, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Founders

[edit]

The founders' great grandson informs me that William's brother was Edwin, not Edward. He is not accurate in all his memories, but as there was a grandson called Edwin, known as Teddy, this seems likely. Shipsview (talk) 19:53, 26 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
