I'm looking at starting new project, possibly life long, as I explore the origins and variations of tractors globally. I plan to begin my research and documentation here... https://tractorsandtables.com/

HOWEVER given what I'll be exploring, I wanted to share with those here that manage, care, and maintain this article. hEKKIDNEUIFEWH EWHRF EWFYHREWBF EWYHFBEW HF UEF EHW FUJEW±−×××× 92.178.197.10 ( talk) 18:59, 5 May 2022 (UTC)Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).Specifically I'm looking at the following for my research: reply

1. Country/locations first application of tractors
2. Types, brands, and creators of those tractors used
3. Current and pass development
4. TBD...

Along this journey I figured I could help with this article.

• Are there any important features that need to be added to this article?
• Are there any immediate needs?

very interested in helping.

Image Nr. 3 on the page describes a "XTZ-243K" tractor. This is a typo, it is supposed to say "KhTZ-243K". Since the page is semi-protected I am not able to edit it. IlyaTorshov ( talk) 22:45, 15 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Pending discussion here, I have removed a recent worthy but probably unencyclopaedic safety addition and salutary tale. Please discuss and reach consensus there. WP:BRD applies.

In general Wikipedia is not a safety manual.

The material is not lost. It remains in the article hostory, and can be re-added after consensus is formed, at any time. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 20:46, 29 September 2022 (UTC) reply

With a better understanding of the "Safety" scope, I propose adding one additional paragraph specific to ISO 23205:2014, which relates to a tractor's instructional seat and intended purpose. This along with a couple added statistics in the opening paragraph could bring added value to the section, in my opinion.

I have created these newly proposed additions in a copy of the section over in my sandbox (bolded portions would be added). I welcome any feedback before editing the article again. Thank you for the guidance. NOC1997 ( talk) 16:24, 23 November 2022 (UTC) reply

@ NOC1997 That certainly appears more encyclopaedic. It might be that it merits a separate article on the formal mechanisms for tractor safety, rather than an inclusion in this article.

What you need to do now is seek to form a WP:consensus for inclusion 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 18:22, 23 November 2022 (UTC) reply

"The truly portable engine was invented in 1893 by William Tuxford of Boston, Lincolnshire who started manufacture of an engine built around a locomotive-style boiler with horizontal smoke tubes."

Please change this to 1839. ErastVanDoren ( talk) 22:03, 25 June 2023 (UTC) reply

there's an ISO standard for "sleeve hitches", which appear to be a common hitch in garden tractors, used for ground-engaging implements like ploughs.

Multiple vendors ( Cub Cadet, Craftsman, Johnny Products) manufacture them. Several manufactuers of garden tractors and at least one third-party, Brinly, manufacture implements. Someone even nerdier than me bought SleeveHitch.com to write about sleeve hitches, and various tractor forums are replete with references to sleeve hitches. But I have yet to find a useful secondary source.

Based on WP:Bold, I added a brief section on the subject on the main page, however it was promptly reverted. So I'll pose the question here with the info I have gathered: does this warrant mention on this wikipedia page (or perhaps another one)? Notecharlie ( talk) 18:26, 1 July 2024 (UTC) reply

The way we determine what warrants mention on Wikipedia is to look at what the independent reliable sources have to say. In this case they say nothing - so Wikipedia, too, should say nothing.

Vendor product pages and ISO standards aren't sufficient. One can find standards and vendor sites for an almost endless number of products - for example pipe fittings alone would number in the thousands. But since Wikipedia is WP:NOT a product catalog, we correctly do not write about all those products. MrOllie ( talk) 18:32, 1 July 2024 (UTC) reply
