Talk:Volvo trucks

All the not-written articles
This article link-lists a bunch of Volvo models with no articles. I don't know much about each model, especially not in english, but would it be too little to just post a picture of the model to start with? ...It's said that a picture says more than a thousand words?

Since nobody commented this, I'll start up slowly adding articles as mentioned above, once I get back to my own computer next week. I hope that someone else is willing to add data about the specific models when they see the truckstubs. One of my reasons for doing this is that I find it useless to have "hundreds" of different Volvo trucks in Commons, that are useful but unused, while we at the same time have an overdose of unwritten articles that someone probable intended "the rest of us" to write?

Gallery?
I think it might be kind of overkill to have the large gallery at the end of the article. I suggest a link to commons instead. At least once the separate model articles are written, the respective truck pictures should be moved there. Then I think two, three or four good pictures showing the Volvo evolution should be in this article. G®iffen 15:37, 30 April 2007 (UTC)


 * I`m quite happy to fill in most of the details for bunch of Volvo models without the articles but can we please correct the linking of FM versions to FM7,FM10,FM12 models which are completely different models.Thanks Stonufka 13:25, 9 June 2007 (UTC)


 * If the models can fill out one article for each, I'd say you're more than welcome. Untill the articles are written, it might be better to keep it as 3 sections of the same FM-article, though...?
 * Another thing, I just got the idea that "Volvo FM series" would be a better article name than "Volvo FM7, FM10 and FM12". Any objections on moving the article? G®iffen 14:43, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah I agree with the point of linking the articles at this stage as the evolution of FM models now spans nearly 10 years with the cabs facelifted several times including major powertrain and suspension changes however there is a need to avoid confusion among the models. I was given a go ahead by Volvo Trucks Corp to include some of their HiRes pictures of various models and types so its gonna take me a while to go through the lot. That way we can than make it more organized by models/years etc. Stonufka 10:36, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
