Talk:North American International Auto Show

Untitled
I tried to update this story with two valid new vehicles and links and they were spam-offed. I don't understand why. Other users have listed links to their new vehicle pages - Autoblog, autoWeek. Why don't you want info on the Camaro and Benz Ocean Drive? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thecarconnection (talk • contribs) 15:48, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * While the external link you added is apparently from your own website, it seems like legit information to me. I kept your re-add, but moved it to the Concepts list.  But I'm only keeping the external link because there is not yet info on the convertible concept on any Camaro article pages.  I've deleted other external links in the list for car info which is already present in other article pages.  BTW, I'm not the same person who marked your previous additions as spam. --Vossanova o&lt; 14:39, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Largest Auto Show
I would question the cite for largest auto show. McCormick Place in Chicago reportedly has more space than Detroit, but because it is only a week or two after Detroit, NAIAS is where the debuts are made, keeping its prominence.

The article would also benefit from distinguishing between the various days of the auto show. The only one with any detailed coverage is the Charity event, and it neglects to mention the live prime time coverage from local news.

And the year by year should spin off from the main article pretty soon. The information has historical value, but it clutters the article from becoming anything more than an almanac.

 * Well, it depends on how you interpret "largest" - as space, number of companies, attendance, importance for the industry. It should be clarified, it's vague as it is now.


 * I agree it should eventually be split into articles by year, like the Paris Motor Show. --Vossanova o&lt; 19:07, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

ordering
The History section goes oldest to newest, the Awards section goes oldest to newest, and the Years section goes newest to oldest. Is this intentional? Would it make sense to reorder the Years section oldest to newest? Celia Cunningham (talk) 13:41, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

name history
When did the convention change names? It's unclear when it stopped being the Detroit Auto Show, and when it started being the NAIAS, and it might have been called the North American Auto Show in between. Celia Cunningham (talk) 13:46, 7 September 2023 (UTC)


 * It's in the history section; the NAIAS name was first used in 1989. The official website used to have a history page (I'll have to change the reference to it to a Wayback Archive link).  I haven't found any evidence that the show ever was called "North American Auto Show", at least not officially.  That may need to be fixed. --Vossanova o&lt; 23:06, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Never mind, and  seem to suggest it became NAAS in 1987. --Vossanova o&lt; 23:13, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
