I promised I would review this when I had time. Sorry for the wait though. Thanks! ΤheQ Editor Talk? 19:43, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
Development
[edit]- "unlike other Japanese companies did not" change to "unlike other Japanese companies, they did not"
- The last sentence in paragraph 1 is too long. There are too many cases of semi colons.
- You don't have to put a citation at the end of every sentence. If you are using 1 footnote to cite multiple consecutive sentences, only cite it at the very end. (not required for GAC)
- "His goal was export on a scale" change to "His goal was exported on a scale"
- ✓? See below. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 02:45, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- wikilink die cast
- "run at full capacity" - run should be ran
- The picture either needs to be a full sentence or have no period at the end.
Design
[edit]- There are two "and"s in the sentence of "It moved the engine down and away from the seat," perhaps replacing the first "and" with "it"
- "and it made possible larger wheels." should be "and made it possible for larger wheels."
- The sentence "Though some of the many Super Cub variations..." is too long.
- "his was an extremely simple motorcycle," - "extremely" sounds too biased. Cross extremely out.
- File:Honda Super Cub at Seattle Children's Museum1.jpg's caption isn't a complete sentence. Make it a complete sentence or drop the period.
- Why use "@"? Is that a special annotation, if so link to the page.
- ✓ spelled out "at" Brianhe (talk) 00:15, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
"You meet the nicest people on a Honda"
[edit]- The heading needs to meet WP:Headings. Change it to "Advertising" or anything else you feel appropriate.
- FN 37 doesn't say anything about ""added to the macho Harley image."
- Question: I see it in the next-to-last paragraph on page 45. Are you sure you didn't miss this? Brianhe (talk)
- File:Supercubca100.JPG's caption isn't a complete sentence. Make it a complete sentence or drop the period.
- File:Harley-Davidson Young America advertisement.jpg same thing as above
- ✓ fixed Brianhe (talk) 00:04, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
Model History
[edit]"until 1967" - what happened? You may want to reword the order of it- "After 1980 the USA C70 was called the C70 Passport." - expand on that or merge that in another paragraph.
- FN 41 looks good to me. Consider removing the [better source] tag.
- File:Honda Dream 110i Super Cub ND110M 2014 Right.JPG needs a proper caption
"In late 1960" - should be "In the late 1960s"- "When you talk about Japanese" - did the quote ever end?

- I didn't mean before to imply were were done. Now it looks like we've fixed 'em all. Let us know. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 02:03, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

Current popularity
[edit]- "The Super Cub was included The Guggenheim's" - should be "The Super Cub was included in The Guggenheim's"

References
[edit]- ref 52, 49 and 51 are dead

Questions/comments
[edit]- "His goal was export on a scale" change to "His goal was exported on a scale"
- Fujisawa didn't want to export his goal. His goal was to have large-scale exports of bikes. Maybe it should say "...was to export motorcycles on a scale..."
- Why use "@"? Is that a special annotation, if so link to the page.
- I can't find any preference for @ or 'at' on peak torque or hp. FAs Talbot Tagora and Sunbeam Tiger use @. I wish Torque had fewer physics formulas and more plain English explanations of why we express torque (and hp) this way. I don't know where else to link.
- "In late 1960" - should be "In the late 1960s"
- This is from a chart; the year was definitely 1960, per p. 39 of same source. Probably "mid" is more accurate than late, or just "In 1960" if we don't know the month. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 23:27, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
