Proposal submitted to establish consensus for or against. As per guidelines, consensus against, or failure to establish consensus, will result in the defeat of the proposal.
Proposal:
WHEREAS Daimler may have had earlier 2.5 litre engines, or earlier 4.5 litre engines, or both, than Turner's V8s,
AND WHEREAS Daimler is not likely to have made other V8 automobile engines before Turner's V8s (please correct me if I am wrong on this),
AND WHEREAS V8 engines used in Daimler automobiles after production of Turner's V8s ended would be Ford-era Jaguar V8s and not "Daimler V8s",
AND WHEREAS the term "Daimler V8 engine" is a more concise and more precise term for the subject(s) of the article,
BE IT RESOLVED THAT the subject of the article would be better described as "Daimler V8 engine" than as "Daimler 2.5 & 4.5 litre",
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the article should be renamed "Daimler V8 engine".

Why is there a mini-biography of Edward Turner in the article? What purpose does it serve the article on Daimler 2.5 & 4.5 litre V8 engines? Sincerely, SamBlob ( talk) 20:55, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
Daimler 2.5 & 4.5 litre → Daimler V8 engines – Reasons for request given in Talk:Daimler 2.5 & 4.5 litre#Move to "Daimler V8 engine"?, as seen two sections above this one. Sincerely, SamBlob ( talk) 20:23, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
An anonymous poster has just amended the article to state that the one engine cannot be bolted in place of the other. As I know there is at least one SP250 (in New Zealand) with a 4.5 engine this is not strictly accurate, although I assume there would probably be a need for modifications to the mountings etc rather than a straight swop. Can anyone clear this point up authoritatively ? RGCorris ( talk) 13:55, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
