Thank you for your review and your thoroughness! I have checked the guidelines again, and it seems that the source I had added to the article on gas engines was just what is needed for
Knowledge (XXG) – a branch expert discussing a relevant topic in a non-promotional way. Have I misinterpreted this?
396:
What you're trying to do here is a good idea, but it needs to be better written and it needs better sourcing. Nor does it really need to explain the operating cycle. I learned 'suck, squeeze, bang, blow' as a kid and it wasn't until I read
Ricardo decades later that I really understood anything and

I don't understand why you reverted my edit on
Chinatown to add Penthouse as one of the companies involved. The end credits of the movie literally say "A Paramount - Penthouse Presentation." Penthouse was given equal billing to the home studio in the credits. You can see the credit at 4:50 in this

you should focus on completing the "Number in Class" column first. "Date extinct" isn't the right title, since locomotives don't go extinct and some of the class members still exist. You could maybe add a "Disposition" column, but it would make that table too wide and it is complex to include the

is the state you left the table in when I commented on your talk page. Note that virtually every entry that you added to the "Number in Class" column is wrong. You had 13 for the A10 Avonside class, instead of 4; 4 for the A10 Nielsons instead of 13, 3 for the B11s instead of 4 etc. Please don't

The main problem with it is that this is an article on gas engines, not four-stroke engines, or even four-stroke gas engines. It implies that all gas engines are four strokes (they're not). It implies that all gas engines use compression (The first ones didn't, which is why they pre-dated the

I detoured back from a trip on the Vale of
Rheidol today and took a photo, which I've now added to the article. I've also made a suggestion for renaming it, as I feel that calling it Machynlleth Town is misleading if it was originally unnamed. Your thoughts would be welcome.
376:
As a source, its main problem is that it's a commercial parts retailer trying to bask in some reflected glory by 'explaining' gas engines by pasting up some simplistic explanation they found somewhere, probably online and increasingly AI-generated. That is

realised what a completely pointless and misleading cliche that hackneyed explanation is. What it mostly needs to explain is "gas engines are just like big IC engines, except that they're different in the following ways:".

details of what happened to a class of locomotives. Overall, I wouldn't recommend trying to shoehorn that information into the table. Readers can go to the individual class articles to see what happened to each class.
305:
There is no way to cite the end credits, and there is no usual expectation to do so. The article was an additional source, but I provided a solution in the
Chinatown Talk page that I think will fix everything. :)
90:
I double checked all the "Number in Class" columns and only the "A12 (small) class" was wrong (3 instead of 1). The "Classification" heading still needs a fix, but it seems to be much better than before.
422:
273:
The end credits of the movie are the best and most reliable, definitive source. They say the film was jointly made by
Paramount and Penthouse. I don't understand why there would be a question about that.

If so, please tell me – otherwise it would be great if you could take another look at my source and re-add it if it seems suitable for you, as the article is in need of more citations.
