Sampling a few best sources for a new draft

[edit]

Hello,

Thanks for the advise, as part of your comment and request below: :-) Symbol opinion vote.svg Comment: Could you list the 3 best sources on the talk page? There's too many sources to go through all of them individually, so its better to focus on a small sampling of the best. BuySomeApples (talk) 00:29, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Draft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:GANSER_CRS_AG

Please do not hesitate to let me know further suggestions, in order to improve this draft. Thank you. :-)

The reason for the high number of citations:

I endeavoured to avoid the following :-), but I also wanted to substantiate my article, in order to avoid any controversy (possible when dealing with technological inventions) or bias (possible when dealing with private companies' allegations):

- Citations to work that the article's subject produced

- Citations that name drop reliable sources

- Citations lacking significant coverage

- Citations that verify random facts

However, as the research and development path of internal combustion engines and fuel injection is scattered with controversies (several inventors claiming that they are pioneers, sometimes in good faith, as they developed the same technology completely independently (without talking to each other), but simultaneously), therefore I tried to justify as much as I could when bringing about strong statements for example : "is the pioneer in common rail fuel injection systems, with the development from 1987 until 1992 of the very first diesel common rail fuel injection system in the world". Indeed, if you start calling someone a pioneer, you better prove and justify this allegation very well with independent and external sources.

My sample of citations which I would qualify as most important :

[1] https://ethz.ch/en/news-and-events/eth-news/news/2013/11/a-piece-of-eth-accompanies-diesel-cars.html => independent source + mention Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) as cradle for the common rail technology + justifying other specifics: car model, field tests of 1993 at the conducted by the ETH Zurich.

[2] https://www.nzz.ch/article9QM0G-ld.310566?reduced=true => independent source + justifying the inventors of common rail being: Dr. Marco Ganser & Pr. Max Berchtold, as alumni and faculty of the ETH Zurich.

[3] https://www.ganser-crs.ch/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Auf-der-gleichen-Schiene.pdf => independent source + justifying the history of common rail + justifying the inventor oc common rail being: Dr. Marco Ganser/the Swiss company Ganser-Hydromag + justifying Alfa Romeo as first car with common rail + mention of the ETH Zurich as cradle for the common rail technology + mention of the first field tests carried out by the ETH Zurich in 1993.

[4] https://www.mtu-solutions.com/eu/en/stories/technology/research-development/how-does-common-rail-injection-work.html

=> independent source + justifying the use of an Engine model 4000 of the German company MTU, as first marine diesel large engine in the world to receive a common rail as fuel injection system (in series / mass production) => That's a confirmation from the engine manufacturer-side too.

[6] "Common Rail: Beiträge auch aus der Schweiz". Eurotax Auto-Information. No. 1270. 1997. p. 13. => independent source + justifying the inventor of common rail being: Dr. Marco Ganser.

[7] Common Rail Einspritzsysteme - Gegenwart und Zukunftspotential (in German). ETH Zurich, Reprozentrale Höngg: Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich | Institute for Energetics | Laboratory of Internal Combustion Engines and Combustion Technology (LVV) | Dr. Konstantinos Boulouchos. 1997. p. 26. => independent source + justifying that the patent right of use regarding the first common rail injector invented by Dr. Marco GANSER was ceded to the German company L'Orange GmbH, in order to equip the first marine large engine in the world with common rail technology (an Engine from the German company: MTU).

Along these citations, I used the two following sources as background canvas for the two first sections: Contribution to Common Rail and History, but strived to justify them with citations to avoid any bias, and also in order to check if what is being said on this website is reliable.

https://www.ganser-crs.ch/ganser-crs/geschichte/

https://www.ganser-crs.ch/values/common-rail-history/

If a citation was also cited on the website of the company Ganser, I always tried to find another independent source to avoid any bias (patents, article in the press, research articles, conference papers, etc.)

Hope that it helps. Please let me know. :-) Thank you. Pseudo-Welscher (talk) 08:21, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ECAM Council - Draft Page
