Combino
Not encyclopedic, no potential to become so. &#8212; Bill 11:58, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: A model of a brand of a train car (and just a car). Non-encyclopedic. Geogre 14:53, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * It's not a train car, it's a tram. And there are only about five different types of tram you can get these days due to the amalgamations in the industry, so this makes this a major thing in an important and expanding area of public transport. So these are in use in Augsburg, Basel, Erfurt, Freiburg, Düsseldorf, Nordhausen, Potsdam, Hiroshima, Amsterdam, Ulm and Berne. (And no, I didn't know this five minutes ago, I did a Google search). I'd say this does have the potential to become encyclopedic, in the same way as, say, the Airbus A340 is. Average Earthman 15:56, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Agree with Earthman. Looks encyclopedic to me. Keep. [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 21:19, Oct 22, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Well-known tram model. Article needs improvement, especially with respect to the recent technical problems of the model.Martg76 01:57, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * I expanded the article, using the information from the German Wikipedia. Martg76 02:40, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. D AVODD  [[User_talk:Davodd|« TALK »]] 17:51, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. The article in its current state falls in line with the goals of WikiProject_Trains; many other articles like this already exist in Category:Locomotives and others are requested as listed on WikiProject_Trains/Todo.  slambo 15:47, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. I see absolutly no reason for deletion of this article.  &mdash; siro  &chi;  o  00:24, Oct 27, 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. With the additional material, this is a good article. Inky 01:42, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. Echo the opinions of Siroxo.  -- Radman1 15:53, 27 Oct 2004 (UTC)
