Talk:Faraday Future

Title of source?
...ref></ref...

Retrieved in Austria, via Safari 7.0.6 / Mac OS X 10.9.5 title of article is again (I made a correcting edit today at 7:46): Faraday Future A Mysterious Electric Carmaker has its Sights on Tesla. / edited 5.11.2015, 3:21 PM EST /

but browser window headline (similar to url) is: Faraday Future is the Tesla Competitor That Doesn't Want to Be Tesla.

1. Does the article of Fortune show up in the USA with a different title?

2. Did you user:Tdrewes and user:Stepho-wrs take the the window headline? manually or somehow automated? --Helium4 (talk) 19:27, 10 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks for picking up the discrepancy. The website itself does indeed have a large visible heading in text that says "A Mysterious Electric Carmaker has its Sights on Tesla". My normally method of getting the heading is to press control-D, which brings up a dialogue box to add a bookmark. This dialogue box is preloaded with the title of the page taken from the HTML header section (which is also displayed as the browser tab label). I then press control-C to copy this into the clipboard, which I can then use to copy into the WP article. This has worked well for me for years. Unfortunately, the Fortune reference has different text for its HTML header and the large visible text. Occasionally I find small differences between these two forms of the title but it is rare to find a big difference like this. Arguments could be made for either title to have precedence. I'm 50/50 which one to use, so I'm happy if you want to use the visible title instead of the HTML title.  Stepho  talk 21:12, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Planned products
Can we cite a news article for this judgement? I can be wrong, but are social media pages reliable to preserve their content? Which social media pages were hit? Facebook, Google+, Twitter?:

"Following the reveal, their social media pages were hit with mostly negative comments. Many stated that they were expecting details on an affordable production car that would compete with the Tesla Model 3 or Nissan Leaf. They expressed disappointment that the only design shown was of a high end concept race-car for the rich, instead of an affordable production car for the every day driver."

 * I provided a cite from Electrek.co. And I dunno why the CN was added, that is common knowledge. L3X1 (talk) 17:18, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

Quote in reference
With respect to the question posed in this reversion: The purpose of the quote is to support the text. Most of our editors and readers cannot access the text of the article because it is behind a paywall. User:Fred Bauder Talk 05:56, 27 April 2016 (UTC)


 * I'm not subscribed to the Wall Street Journal in anyway and I can access http://www.wsj.com/articles/electric-car-maker-faraday-breaks-ground-in-nevada-1460589107 no problem.  Stepho  talk 07:36, 27 April 2016 (UTC)


 * You are only looking at the headline. User:Fred Bauder Talk 13:33, 27 April 2016 (UTC)


 * 901 words (not counting the banner, comments, links to other articles, etc) is a pretty big headline. I followed the above link both at work and at home (which use different ISP's) and both presented me the entire article. I can quite clearly see the quote in the WSJ article that you want in the WP article. I'm in Australia and the WSJ article is in the US if that makes any difference.

Chinese vs American
This back and forth edit warring is getting on my nerves. As far as I can tell, the principle parties agree that: Both and  have agreed to these facts in their edit and/or edit summaries and the references back it up. It seems that the difference comes from whether the Chinese backing should be in the lead sentence. To my mind, it makes little difference either way. It's fine to say it early on. It is also mentioned in the last sentence of the lead paragraph, so that's fine too.  Stepho  talk 09:18, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * 1) The company is registered in the USA therefore it is an American company.
 * 2) Most of the funding comes from Chinese sources.
