The information about the demise/closure of the company is on this page and another related GA page, Lambert Automobile Company, is inconsistent.
- Buckeye Manufacturing Company was nominated for GA and accepted on 6 June 2022 ([1]) and has defunct in 1917 in the infobox and under "Demise" says that that is when they stopped making "Lambert vehicles" and they were a defence facility from 1917 to 1919 then renamed "Lambert Incorporated".
- Lambert Automobile Company was nominated for GA and accepted on 3 July 2022 ([2]) (which itself said defunct in 1916 in the infobox and 1917 in the text) says that Buckeye Manufacturing Company stopped manufacturing automobile parts permanently in 1922.
These may be the only errors or there may be other issues with these pages but I believe that it is worth re-evaluation. Gusfriend (talk) 07:25, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- Another clusterfuck. Let's start with the facts that Lucendo is self-published, Donald Sackheim and Robert Rosenberg are not "historians", and many of the other sources are old primary newspapers and suchlike. EEng 09:19, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- I hadn't made the connection about Lucendo so I have now moved it into the further reading and it is no longer a citation. Gusfriend (talk) 09:36, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- This has Coldwell's usual problem with copied or lightly paraphrased text. For instance both this 1966 newspaper clipping and the current version of the article include "was known as the longest building in the world devoted to the manufacture of automobiles", as well as several shorter and modified but still-recognizable phrases. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:45, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
