Split apart (2024)

Three completely unrelated topics are in this page. This should not happen. There are also many other automobiles called Pilot listed at Pilot (disambiguation). The UK, US, and German topics should be split into their own articles. This page since its creation has always covered all 3 articles, incorrectly. Thus this pagename should point to the disambiguation page, and three new pages be created for the three separate topics currently residing on this page.

The US topic can go to Pilot Motor Car Company.
The UK topic can go to Pilot Cars Limited.
The German topic can go to Pilotmotorenwerke Bannewitz.

I agree with the split idea, but not sure on the names. Are the articles about the three Pilot marques or the manufacturers? Also the German section needs expansion to be justified as an article.

Pilot (automobile) surely needs to be changed, I was expecting an article about the drivers. Rally Wonk (talk) 15:51, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support page split, but I'd caution that the articles on the British and German cars are going to be very short and I've noticed a burgeoning trend towards deleting such articles. --Sable232 (talk) 21:45, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Appropriate change - I'll set up the three pages and rename this one NealeWellington (talk) 22:43, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
