Good Idea but expand the lead

I think this is a good subject... I'm no expert on wikipedia, (just made my first template last night! It's exciting) but I would like to suggest expanding the lead with a more verbose explanation of what made this car different... Nickmxp (talk) 16:14, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

RFC

Hi, I just want to know how good this article is for a stub, and I would also like suggestions or comments. I would also appreciate it if you can edit it to add more details or information. (Thanks in advance) -- 05:23, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

One thing that confuses me is why you have repeatedly removed the {{no footnotes}} tag, despite the absence of inline citations. I can only guess that you haven't read WP:INCITE? --David Biddulph (talk) 09:55, 15 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Since it only has one source, inline citations are useless here since it is only supported by one source. Inline citations are used to associate a specific bit of information with a specific source, not a whole article, but you could add the tag later when it has 2 sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrei Marzan (talk • contribs) 04:49, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is therefore a general reference.--Yutah123¹²³|UPage| (talk) 04:52, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The idea of inline citation is to allow the reader to see which items of information in the article are supported by sources and which aren't. It shouldn't be necessary for a reader to go to the source to check for himself, though of course verifiability requires that he be able to. As far as the "one source" situation is concerned, then the question remains as to whether a subject that hasn't received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources is notable, and thus whether the article should exist. --David Biddulph (talk) 05:13, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I will just add a citation needed for that purpose.Yutah123¹²³|UPage|_☺★ (talk) 07:52, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the edit history, sorry for linking to the Japanese version of google books, I am in Japan, so it happens sometimes. Thanks for correcting it! Yutah123¹²³|UPage|_☺★ (talk) 14:10, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if I am helping or confusing the matter, but if you are looking for 'sources' try: http://books.google.com/books?id=jdwDAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA125&dq=drop+tank&hl=en&sa=X&ei=7owCU5SyOOSTyQHvrYDwBg&ved=0CDEQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=drop%20tank&f=false

There was another article (I will post a link to it if I find it again) about a guy that create a street-legal drop-tank car powered by an air cooled (e.g. lawn mower) engine - which is actually the article I wanted find - it had 3-wheels, instead of 4.

Anyway the article above has some awsome images, you might want to add if you can get PM's permission - or just list it as an external source/reference

You might also want to add an 'in popular culture' section and list the video game "Fallout 3" - they're are bellycars wrecks in the game
