Honda D engine
Hi there PushKeeN.

You wrote in your : "Dear Mr. Jerome Charles Potts, [&hellip;] If you're so interested in sources, please check some honda service manuals (visit hondatech.info for example)". So I took the extra steps and found a few documents that i used to fill the article,  (plus and ). It is Wikipedia policy to "be so interested in sources": that's posted everywhere, including in the banner tag at the top of the article (since October 2009), and in my comment posted in the talk page of that article, with wikilinks provided. There is no excuse. Please comply, or go find a Honda Engine wiki elsewhere, where the rules are perhaps looser. Or create your own wiki (however, i bet you that you will soon want to establish rules just like here). --Jerome Potts (talk) 23:54, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Hello Jerome Potts,
 * surely, I agree with you that it is necessary to follow rules. But I'm sure that wiki's first objective is to share useful info.
 * Actually about reference, that you classified as correct - I don't think that Honda fans site is a reliable source.
 * I hope that you'll find all the references you need to restore this article, because it is very useful as I said earlier.
 * This summer I've reassembled my d13b2 engine and on my own experience I learned head and pistons codes. What reference should I place there in your opinion? d13b2 ?
 * Information collected in this article is very fragmented so it is hard to find.
 * I beg your pardon for my English. -- PushKeeN


 * Thanks for your reply, and for your effort in English.
 * So you agree that a loose Honda fans web site is usually not a reliable source; that's exactly what we are trying to avoid here. See WP:NOT (in Russian, ru:Википедия:Чем не является Википедия)
 * Unfortunately, Wikipedia does not wish to be the publisher of the knowledge that you have accumulated on your own experience, see ru:Википедия:Недопустимость оригинальных исследований.
 * I am starting to understand that y'all are using Wikipedia as a central repository for this fragmented technical data. I am sorry that it is so, but this original research must take place somewhere else. If it becomes a widely recognised source, the Wikipedia will certainly point to it. Best wishes, --Jerome Potts (talk) 20:49, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
