Scavas

Car design that never even made it into production. Nonnotable trivia with poor sources. DreamGuy (talk) 19:31, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Can't be sourced. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 19:49, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can find some mentions online, but nothing substantial. Maybe in there's something better in Greek? The text of the article as it currently stands is almost a copyvio of the link given as a reference; only a few words have been changed. Hairhorn (talk) 21:12, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep World car encyclopedias contain a large number of models that never went into production, as long as they were intended to (which means they were properly engineered). I understand that Wikipedia's quality is also safeguarded by filtering out irrelevant articles, but I stronly believe that the effort of people that enrich it should be respected. I am an author and contributor in the automotive sector for years, and I can argue stronly enough that this article ojectively should be included in any car manufacturers list. The site that was added as a reference provides plenty of support.Skartsis (talk) 08:31, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - the reference as added by Skartsis provides the independent evidence of notability to support keeping this article. Varbas (talk) 11:42, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Account was blocked as a sock of a banned user, so vote invalid. DreamGuy (talk) 20:18, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Totally non-notable car design that never saw a scrap of metal. Hipocrite (talk) 16:53, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Keep Significant design in automotive history. Would be fine to merge it somewhere to an article on prototypes, greek automotive history, or the University of Patras's engineering department. Every athlete that has ever competed at the Olympics is notable, but not this historic design by a Greek engineer? I object your honor! ChildofMidnight (talk) 17:51, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Just not notable. Niteshift36 (talk) 03:21, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
